Watched first two episodes of Peaky Blinders. A bit meh, and left it at that.

Finished s5 of American Horror Story there a while back. To say the least it is quirky , ghoulish and bizarre. Would recommend the series although it won't be to everyone's taste.

Watching Vikings at the minute.  Think its a great show.  Dare say I say I am enjoying it more than Game of thrones

I see the American crime story - the people vs o.j Simpson aired last night in the u.s and seems to have got very good reviews.. For eg 'Expertly executed entertainment' the telegraph

it has a good cast , Marcia Clark, Cuba gooding Jr., John travolta, David schwimmer etc

It starts next week on Feb 13th on bbc2 so will give it a try ..
I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

Has anyone watched the new X Files yet? Worth watching?
Watching it. The first 2 episodes were average as most time was spent on backstory for people who haven't seen the originals. Last night's (episode 3) was f**king bonkers! Scully looking the part though.

Oh thanks for that, googled it yesterday but there wasn't a date for it.  Must set the series link.

Scully never looked the part imo so she certainly doesn't now! She's had plenty of work done I'd say.
Watched the first episode tonight. It was meh.

This 20min show was directed by a local lad from Eskra Co Tyrone. Not a bad story just don't expect it to raise your spirits

The 2nd series of Siblings on BBC3 just finished tonight, seriously funny show, deserves a lot more recognition.

Can't find thr friday night music thread but this may be of interest. 

Film about one of the world's greatest rock bands - AC/DC, or Acca Dacca as they are known in Australia. It is also the story of the legendary Australian music company, Albert Music, that launched them onto the global rock music scene.  BBC Four this friday at 22.00.

Just finished Sons of Anarchy, great show.  Wasn't expecting Better Call Saul to be back on as soon.

Looking forward to it. Really enjoyed thrcfirst series and think it eclipsed BB. Episode 6 that focused on Mike's backstory was phenomenal!
