GLOW is shite.

:D the spirit of Barry Norman lives on

Taylor, Power be a decent show for a couple? Mind back in the day the wife lasting 3 mins of Deadwood

Anyone watched El Chapo yet? Might give it a go here.

The latest installment of Fargo was very good, took it a while to get going. David Thewlis stole the show.

Finished Ozark last week and in the end I don't think it lived up to the promise of the earlier episodes. On the hunt for a new boxset. Started watching The Night Of until the missus said halfway through episode 1 that this is very like a show we watched on BBC years ago. Google confirmed it so it's now binned.

The Night of is a superior production than the BBC effort and nothing you might remember from the BBC show will interfere with your enjoyment of the HBO one

I really enjoyed ozark.
Like breaking bad meets fargo.
Maybe not that original, but well executed.
I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either

Downloaded the Boxset of 1992 from Sky Arts, an Italian Political Corruption drama, 3 (from 10) Episodes in and it's a very good show so far with plenty of potential.

Yep, good show - very cynical, quite sad.
Finished already, loved it. Start of a Trilogy apparently. Italian drama (backed by Sky £££) must be the next big thing. Gomarra Series 2 due in the Spring as well.

I've been on the look out for Romanzo Criminale for a while, Sky have had the Series 2 Boxset available for an age but no sign of Series 1.
1993 has started on Sky Arts

I thought it was more, Justified meets Green Acres.

Watched it 6 months ago, gets better as it goes on too.  Names are a nightmare alright.
