Series and Shows

Not heard of that show. HBO do make good shows tho… that’s an unfortunate name for a show.

With all the SJW garbage being circulated, I am disillusioned. Remakes of remakes of remakes. Ugh.

The Hatton Garden robbery series… airing is up to the point where the detectives have tracked down the white BMW that was constantly around and caught on nearby CCTV, prior and running up to the day of the robbery.

I never knew it went down like that… the dos and donts of after-robbery clean-ups. :open_mouth:

Whattt??

How dare you.

No, only the first 16 episodes made sense.

Thats when the killah was discovered and died. Then, the show had become so lucrative that they made another 16 episodes which did indeed fail to make sense.

About 5 episodes of the original 16 were directed by Lynch. These stand out to me as THE best art on the screen ever to have been produced.
The remainder of there episodes is directed by anywhere from bad to mediocre to fairly decent directors. Which gives the show an incredibly inconsistent quality.

Had to look up “twee”. What a twee word.

Sumbitch. Homeland.
Im watching season 7 now, its so great, the aesthetics wonderful. Claire Danes is the best actress out there.

Its made to misinform and to inform alike, aside from entertain and bring in cash. Its very layered. Mostly the aesthetics though, the portrayal of power. House of Cards in its first two seasons had some of this sleek density but this has far more of it. Deeper. The leader alone is too creepy to disregard.

Produced by one Katie O Hara, who must be a very interesting person to talk to.

anyone who hasn’t watched every episode of happy tree friends is dumb

One of my Sisters talked me into watching ‘The Expanse’.

Top of The Pops: The story of 1983 - BBC Two

Playing now…

A character in The Expanse said in so many words that in his world there are three kinds of people; bad people, people you follow, and people you protect. Why do I find something profound in that simplicity?

Top Gear, Nepal special - first aired, 2019…

Top Gear sets out on perhaps its toughest road trip ever - a high-altitude voyage from Kathmandu, capital of Nepal, to the Forbidden City of Lo Manthang, a secretive kingdom perched high on the Tibetan plateau, on the far side of the Himalayas. It is a five-day expedition through the highest mountains, deepest gorges and harshest terrain on the planet.

On their journey, the Top Gear presenters battle river crossings, mudslides and dizzying mountain passes on a trip that would test even the hardiest new 4x4s on the planet to the limit. But Paddy, Freddie and Chris aren’t crossing the Himalayas in new 4x4s. They are crossing the Himalayas in a very small old Peugeot, a very small old Renault and Nepal’s first (and only) home-built car.
