What TV are you watching?

[MontyVeda]

Freak Show and Hotel are probably my favourites, with Asylum and now Cult a close second and Coven after that (though I could have done without Stevie Nicks). Roanoke is probably last

I like all of them in different ways but Connie Britton in S1(I wonder when Murder House got added?) really, really annoyed me.

Haven't read or seen anything about the new series, but with Apocalypse as the title I'm guessing undead/zombies. I'm hoping they do one in space, which was sort of an idea in Asylum that never got properly explored.

it's a funny old show as in everyone who watches it has very different ideas as to which is the best/worst series. One friend told me Asylum was by far the best, whilst another advised me to skip it completely. Of the three series i've seen, they all have their fair share of good and yawn-some episodes. I might pick it up again come Halloween.

Started watching Killing Eve, tonight. It’s one of those strange ones that I can decide if I love it or hate it, but it’s making me want to watch it and so I’ve downloaded the first 3 episodes.

Can’t believe I watched Preacher seasons 1 & 2 a while back, just given up trying to get into season 3.

8 in total

[QUOTE 5386777, member: 9609"]is it one of those complicated spy type stories that often ends with little clue to what it was all about ?

I need simple and easy to follow stuff (i'm a bit thick). I would need to see the first part on iPlayer and Its a big effort to watch anything on iPlayer, think shes started to tape the rest - so do I make the effort or not?[/QUOTE]
Nothing complicated about it,great actors and stylishly filmed.Nearly forgot to say some good old ultra violence and murder !

Jodie Comer has the psychopathic assassin role down to a tee!

Quite enjoyed the first one - slightly odd view of MI5 staff; are they really like that? Playing silly buggers etc?

Thought the hatpin in the eye scene was unnecessary. Not keen on that sort of thing.

Sandra Oh is not a good actress imo and her performance seems out of kilter with the very good acting of Jodie Comer.

Will stick with it and see how it pans out.

NB: 45 mins is too short for one episode. better 6 x 1 hour than 8 x 45 mins.

This review sums it up better than me...
"Whatever the next few months hold, this is one of 2018’s best shows. Try to define it and you’ll drive yourself insane. Submit to its insanity and you’re in for a television experience unlike any other."

Just finished Jack Ryan.
Very good in the we'll save the world American blerb.
The main actor Jack is a bit of a miss cast for me but he is ok.
Grier is excellent

Worth the effort 7/10

Killing Eve. Definitely good enough to justify watching all 8 episodes. In fairness better tham the vast majority of what is on TV. For me though not quite a 10 - probably a 7 or 8. I prefer something that is just a tad more believable.

I'm just about to watch episode 4.

I’ve just started watching Bosch on Prime and it looks promising.

Other things I’ve enjoyed watching on Prime:
Mad Dogs
Outlander
Hand of God
Extant
Royal Pains - highly recommend
Suits - highly recommend

But things I gave up on:
The 100
Sneaky Pete
The Tick
Preacher
Mozart in the Jungle

I also watched most of Last Man in Earth, which is ok if your only other option is watching paint dry.
