Get Shorty, the Chris O'Dowd 2 series tv remake of the movie is very good, feels wrong to like it but it's good.

I finished Season-2 at the weekend as well.  I like it, but it's the sort of thing I'd dip into now and again, rather than binge-watch.

Chernobyl's first episode was impressive!!

Main Street

Cardinal is a bit of alright considering, cannuck noir, a good stocking filler, based on books from crime novelist Giles Blunt, but I'm only in the door on the 3rd episode.

Milltown Row2

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Fleabag. Absolute genius.

YES!!! Absolutely the best thing that's been on TV for a while!!

Watched the first few episodes.
Its a warts and all show thats for sure.

Suprised it is a BBC show given its so risque

Go through it all. The secund season isn't quite as dark but is more laugh out loud funny.

It's the best British comedy in a long, long time.

Will try it again gallsman.

Hasnt been many laugh out loud moments so far - more cringe or 'oh f**k me' moments (like flicking the bean to Obama  :o  )

The first episode with the priest was sone of the funniest scenes ever on TV. Shame it's over.

White Gold was really good also but the last two episodes were sort of predictable would like to see a season three.

Finally finished Breaking Bad.

It did drag on a bit but I did enjoy the final season. I got that one watched in a few days. Really enjoyed that one. Thank god it's over though. Only took me from last September! :D

Black Mirror June 5th!!!!

The cast looks very decent with Topher Grace/Miley Cyrus/Andrew Scott/Anthony Mackie.

It will hopefully be better than Bandersnatch which was alright as a concept but never really took hold.

Enjoying Chernobyl on Sky Atlantic, although the "ey oop, lad" accents of some of the characters takes a bit of getting used to.

Who needs fictional TV shows when you have this on. It's dark, intense and captivating.

The only annoyance I have is the range of accents in it. Should have made it authentic and used Russian actors with subs

Absolutely grim but compelling viewing tonight.

I've got used to the accents now.

I have only just finished the first episode. I will be catching up with it all before I go to sleep. Can't stop watching it.

I had to Google the cast as I knew the voice. He's been to the  buffet bar a few times since he battered Mo
