Have to disagree with regards the mando. Watched season 2 eps 1 and basically he travels to a planets to find a guy, he's not there so he kills a big worm to fill screen time and leaves. So despite the hour the plot is basically exactly where it f**king started.

Jesus I know they're leaning heavily on all the "space western" guff but at this stage it's basically "Rawhide" on Mars. It does have its moments and is a real visual treat which I why I stuck with it this far but my patience is wearing thin. Much like the plot.

Stick with it. It's a bit like the A Team at the start of s2, but it starts to knit together by the half way point and finishes on a close to unscalable high.

Murphy's Stroke.
One of the best shows I've seen. A bunch of Cork "business men" plan a coup against the London bookies. Set in the 70's and made in the 80's. The picture quality is rubbish but that's more than made up by the (true) story.

Never mind all the streaming sites, some of the best shows this winter have been on regular TV, This is going to hurt on BBC is another clinker (comedy drama about the NHS), still can't get Responder out of my head, it was 1st class.

Started watching snowfall. Very good so far.

1883 dipped to just pretty decent TV for a couple of weeks, but episode 9 is as good as anything I've seen in years.

Watched the Responder and while it started very well it lost its way at the end I felt and kind of fizzled out. No doubt about the acting though it was superb throughout just the storyline was a bit lacking I thought.

Watched the first 2 episodes of This is Going to Hurt and enjoyed them so far I hope it continues like that although it is quite grim!

The book is funny and the sequel is more of the same so the writers have loads of material.

Watched All of Us are Dead on Netflix, a Korean high school zombie thriller. Thought it was very good.

Finished Inventing Anna on Netflix. I've mixed feeling on this. Watchable but not a classic.
