Anyone watching/watched Spooks on Netflix? I'm in Season 4 at the moment. The first and second seasons were good, the third was a bit weak I thought, with crazy plotlines at the end to ****Spoiler Alert ********* remove three of the main characters.  The fourth series is a bit of a rebirth and is quite good. What does anyone else think of it? Have ye watched it through?

Well nothing really happens at the end to be honest, poor finish to the season.

Walking dead final episode could have just being 45mins. The hour and a half episode dragges it out. Good last 10 mins.

Finished 11.22.63 last night. I really enjoyed it. There was only the 8 episodes but it was very good imo.

I've the book ordered off Amazon there to get it read before i start watching the show.  It looks really good

Up here in Britain it was shown on BBC. Like yourself I enjoyed it and would agree there are peaks and troughs but me and the missus watched all of it. There is also a Spooks movie - very much like a TV movie rather than a Hollywood epic.

Streamed the last episode of American Crime Story last night, really enjoyed it. think it portrayed the whole saga well and showed what a crazy circus the whole trial was. it also reflected the powder keg that LA was at the time. I see they've commissioned a 2nd series, dont know what it will be focusing on but itll be hard to top this. very enjoyable with a star studded cast who brought their A game.

Under Lights

Anyone watching The A Word on bbc1 Tuesday nights?

The Outsiders is good so far

Minder

I see Friday Night Lights is on Neflix, recommended ?

Yes, great show. Even more so given you like football. The show, like the book, is primarily around life in small town Texas rather than the sport.

Main Street

Better Call Saul is still enjoyable and has it's moments

S2 episode 9
Nighttime, Kim and Jimmy in bed after Jimmy has (allegedly) done something to screw  Chuck into losing a big client. Kim says something like  'Chuck is the best lawyer she knows and what an adversary he would make, he would find even the smallest crack in your defense'.

Then Jimmy gets up and goes to the all nighter photocopy shop ;D

That last episode of Saul was brilliant.  Really love that show.

Yes, it's come around again for me. I thought it was flagging a bit and padding things out for a few episodes, but the latest one was excellent.
