I enjoy many of the marvel films so I thought I would give Loki on Disney a go. I must say 2 episodes in and it's incredibly dull. Don't think I'll bother with anymore.

It's definitely a bit different.  MY wife enjoys all the marvel shows but she quit this after 1 episode.  I watched the rest with the kids.  It improves.  I did enjoy it.

Anyone checked out the new series of Dexter? my Mrs never watched the original series so dont think she's any intention of checking this out but I loved the initial series but looks like il have to fly solo on it, worth a go?

Just ok so far to be honest.

First episode very good though it has dropped off a wee bit(I just finished episode 3). I think it has potential though - you can see two or maybe three story lines brewing.

Silver hill

Did succession jump the shark this week possibly?
Getting a little to clever for its own good I think. The scene between Roman and the presidential candidate was showing off and full of riddles, parables, euphemisms and general shit patter/gibberish and general nonsense. Nobody talks like that, not even billionaire masters of the universe.
Generally still very watchable though in saying that.

If you say it improves I may give it another episode or 2.  Cheers.

Started watching the Beatles documentary.

Don't be expecting many fireworks it's mostly a few lads jamming and having discussions about songs they're trying to write.

There's something calming about it though and they all seem fairly dead on fellas I think I'll stick with it and get through it all.

An Watcher

Always enjoyed the late late toy show but thought last night's was a little disappointing?  Enjoyed the little girl from wexford playing the harps n the wee girl from clare heading off to paris

Aye wasn't very Christmassy. Maybe it's just too early. But was a bit of a let down. Kids feel asleep watching it.

It's genius. Alan Johnson is one of the funniest characters ever written.

quit yo jibbajabba

He was in something serious there recently, cant remember, but you were expecting him to jump into Johnson mode at any stage

Wonder has SuperHans settled down any 😃

Patterson Joseph is a popular actor, it was the Submarine show Vigil he was one of the main men. Rewatched the Leftovers recently and had forgotten he was in that too - Holy Wayne

quit yo jibbajabba

Twas Leftovers. Tipped in to see if worth watching. Will give it a blast in due course
