Anyone seen/heard of 'The night manager'? Hugh Laurie is in it along with tom hiddlestone. A mini series.

Seems to have good ratings as well but went a bit under the radar?

by M99 Fri Apr 08, 2016 1:10 am

Ratings are really good. Mini-series don't usually get much much hype, and it has not aired in the US yet. I'll check it out in the future.

Anyone seen The People V OJ Simpson?

Finished it. I thought it was really well done, definitely worth a watch. Will be hard to top with whatever they choose next season.

Felt like re-watching HIMYM again. First episode brought back so many memories...right up till the final scene.

Raged quit instantly

remembered what an abomination of the final season it was. Awful ending to such a GOAT series. An insult to the fans.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Apr 11, 2016 1:50 pm

I need to rewatch it again tbh, although dat final episode.

Think i might pretend it never happened tbh hmm

The Mother was really good. She was the best part of season 9. Pissed that they made her irrelevant in the grand scheme of things after so much build up.

by Freeza Mon Apr 11, 2016 8:18 pm

I was never mad with the ending, mainly because I called it after season 3. Didn't care really at the end. If the mother was so important she should've had a bigger role in the series. It was obvious the show wasn't about the mother really, but about the group and Robin.

Loved the actress who was the mother though. She did great, and she's always so charming.

Cloak and Dagger series confirmed.

by McAgger Mon Apr 11, 2016 11:16 pm

Honestly, unlike everyone else I didn't mind the ending. I had missed Friends and Seinfeld so much and this was the only show that filled that specific void.

by CBarca Mon Apr 11, 2016 11:21 pm

Meh, always felt like HIMYM was just an inferior version of Friends. Good in its own ways but I just never got into it.

Scrubs, Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, Community >>>

this season of Better Call Saul is a lot better than the last IMO, mostly thanks to more Mike and the Cartel, but I'm enjoying the Jimmy lawyer stuff too.

Finished Vikings....great finale. Really looking forward to the 2nd half of that season.

American Crime Story will likely be Emmys darling. Well made show. Really enjoyed it, specifically Courtney B. Vance as Johnnie.

Started and finished Shadowhunters.....meh. Average show based on pretty good source material. Way better than Shannara, which was abysmal.

Watched the first 2 episodes of Hunters....gonna pass on that one. Looked absolutely awful. Deserves the 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes that it has so far.

Giving Wynonna Earp a try. Very campy show, but I've seen enough that I'll stick with it. I don't think it will last beyond 2 seasons though if it keeps going the way it's going.

Downloading the entire first season of Outsiders right now to watch tomorrow.

Oh and Syfy's Superman prequel Krypton is going to pilot. The outlook from fans is not good. The minus to it taking place on Krypton is that no one will have super powers. It'll be far more of a drama and quite possibly even a procedural. I've seen a lot of comparisons to Caprica, though I honestly liked that show for what it was.

yep me too, just finished today

I agree it was really good and it's a real shame there's so much wait ahead of us before the show returns.

Particurarly loved the last scene with Ragnar and his sons all grown up

by alexjanosik Sun Apr 24, 2016 11:34 am

Finished watching The Wire. Great show and definitely one of the best I have watched. Still cant help but feel that they could have made it a bit more hopeful.
The entire show is dark and bleak and there is no hope whatsoever in the show. Probably the producers wanted to keep it as realistic as possible.
A question to the American members on here. Is Baltimore really that bad and is it beyond redemption as has been portrayed in the show?

Absolutely. Ivar will likely be the strongest of them. No legs, but bigger balls than all of his brothers except for Bjorn. He can thank Aslaug for that.

Makes me wonder what direction this show will go in considering what happens (allegedly if you believe the myths) to Ragnar historically.

by Onyx Sun Apr 24, 2016 3:49 pm

Someone managed to add Romance as a genre for Fargo on IMDB. Laughing

Homeland also has action as one of its new genres, while Mr Robot is also now a thriller. hmm

Natives of Baltimore do say it is as bad as The Wire portrayed it.

Yep I'm really curious in what direction will the show go from now on as well.
