Catch 22 based on the book of the same name is a most worthy dramatisation of the classic WW2 novel.

Has anybody watched Dream/Killer on netflix yet? Only saw it mentioned today on twitter. Same lawyer (attorney) that is currently working on Steve Avery case, was involved in this one too.

On that note - looks like another documentary waiting to be made

Makes you wonder how many other similar cases never get solved

Just started watching The Devil Next Door on Netflix.  I'm only at the beginning but it has the potential to be another cracking Netflix Docu-series!  The story of the trial of an accused Nazi concentration camp worker living in the US. "Ivan the Terrible"

Finished this over the weekend.  Amazing and horrifying stuff really.  They could have done more episodes on this and put a lot more of the detail in it I think.

Shocking how US immigration allowed former Nazi's to settle in their country without much of a problem... although I suppose this could be applied to a few countries.

Just finished it today, so many different levels to this, first off he was a guard at one of these camps, those survivors wanted to believe it was him, and why go to such an elaborate way to 'fix' him up?

The Americans were happy to take on the German scientists and the money men from Germany.

He was guilty I'd say, maybe not Ivan the terrible but he needed to be at least made accountable for his actions so sending him back to Germany was right

What I took from it was that the Soviets were apprehensive of the ties forming between Ukraine and Israel, due to the fact that so many Ukraninan Jews had settled in Israel after the war.
The whole thing was made up to unsettle this relationship, and when the USSR dissolved, the KGB released papers to show it was bs and the man was released.
He obviously was still heavily involved in genocide, hence the second trial, which he never made.

I watched it all the other night. Unfucking real that it took this long for him to be released. His father deserves immense credit , came across as a decent person who never quit . I suppose any father would presumably do the same in the same situation but he seemed a genuinely good person.
Worth watching , good show.

Watched it last night, brilliant documentary.  The father was unreal.  Shocking the way the appeal courts work in the US from watching this and Making A Murderer - you would probably still lose yout appeal even if you had footage of someone else doing the crime.

Finally got to watch season 4 of Gomorra, still probably the best show in recent years and what a finale. As an aside I see Ciro has his own film coming out next month.

I'm a couple of seasons behind, but it's certainly great stuff.

Fleabag- what the f...?

One pile of absolute shite.

Been watching New Amsterdam recently.
Not bad, a bit of a throwback to ER in it's day though probably not as gritty.
Some good storylines.

The Confession Killer on Netflix is excellent.  Five episode doc on Henry Lee Lucas, who confessed to over 300 murders.

[Main Street]

Mrs Maisel  S3 ep 5 is a stunning episode, absolute perfection, the 2nd half anyway after Lenny Bruce takes over.

Finished 2nd season today it's very good. My wife absolutely loves it and is grateful for something that isn't laden with violence!!

Last nights Rick and Morty was brilliant!!!

Three identical strangers. Fantastic if slightly disturbing documentary on channel 4 last night.
      A true story of Identical triplets seperated at birth who find one another. I assume you can get in on their player.
