When they were cancelled I lost all interest.
Luke Cage watched 1 episode, gang violence is real turn off for me.
Haven't watched s2 of Iron fist, s3 of Daredevil.
S2 of Jessica Jones was not good.

So unless the reviews are amazing I'll probably pass.

I love Jessica Jones in the comics, detest the series. The actress and the whole intepretation of the character are really not right.

Cage probably could have worked better as 6 episode mini seasons, they never seemed to have enough material to justify the length they were.

They f**king nailed Daredevil & Punisher, though.

every season of DD and Punisher were good..for Luke only season 2, for Iron Fist, don't bother, avoid their "crossover" series too ..JJ showed promise in season 2 but it just didn't deliver...we need to see her as a superheroine, she can actually "fly" or atleast jump really high but doesn't...she is supposed to be as strong as Luke but isn't..

Luke Cage S1 was good until they killed off Ali’s character. Iron Fist I had really low expectations going in to it and they exceeded them tbf, but still nothing on DD and Punisher

Binge watched the new season of Designated Survivor on Netflix
Its my guilty pleasure
I know its utter tripe but I love it

Virtual Signallers and lefties on here would love it, it must be trying to be the most politically correct tv programme of all time

Like I say its utter shite but its my utter shite

Plus it has Italia Ricci in it who I would destroy

First season was good with the investigation into the conspiracy and Sutherland's character finding his feet. Lost interest very fast in the second season when it became just another White House drama. Yawn.

Just started The Young Pope, enjoying this.

Remarkable mini series, if really tough going in parts. What happened to those kids was sick really. Brilliant acting from the cast, the last episode is just brutal and moving stuff.

Went from Chernobyl straight in to When They See Us. Holy fcuk I'm a wreck.

Well worth a watch if you missed it first time around.

I think I mixed this one up with some teeny angst show (Pretty little liars?) and avoided it like the plague.

I was pretty convinced I wasn't going to be into it when I started it but it's decent drama. Probably has more to do with the main characters being good actresses.

I suppose I'm more impressed with tele that doesn't rely on violence or overkill violence as the main hook.

The only downside is its an episode per week to get through it. Just seems such a dated model now.

Just started watching When They See Us myself, and like any dramatisation or investigation into racial injustice it made me angry.

However I'm heartened by the news that the DA who handled the investigation has just lost her highly lucrative book deal (she's a successful established crime novelist) and the Prosecutor who argued the case resigned under pressure from her tenure at Columbia last week.

Great show...and soundtrack, fantastic understated acting, Jude Law is excellent

Kid A wrote:'Too Old to Die Young'. Nic Winding Refn's tv show. 1st episode is absolutely superb. Looks a banger.

I hope so. I loved Drive but Only God Forgives and The Neon Demon were disappointingly shit.

I have quite enjoyed the Netflix documentary series 'Losers' about losers in sport and how it affected them. I don't like some of the presentation in the series but the stories are really interesting.

Other than that enjoying Good Omens, What we do in the Shadows and Brooklyn 99 Series 6 - Could not stop laughing at Terry's shaved eyebrows and bleached beard

New Top Gear is quite watchable; much less contrived than recent incarnations, the presenters are all quite natural/likeable and one or two genuine lol moments. Promising!

The Neon Demon was amazing!If you didn't like that, you won't like this.

Just watched episode 5 - and it was genuinely one of the greatest episodes of television I have ever seen.

Nicole Kidman is going to slowly come around to nutty Meryl Streep's side and plot "revenge"

There's going to be a screecy chat over coffee by the 5 young birds on how to kill Streep to stop her spilling the beans to the cops. Here. First.

Is Michael J Fox in the 3rd season?

Nice rule 1 there, I approve

I just recently started watching Suits. Its quite fun in a dumb brain candy sort of way but I was into Season 2 before I realised Meghan Markle is in it. I didn't know anything about her other than she married Harry and disowned her dad or something and had no opinion of her either way but by god, do I hate her now?

It's a shame to see Black Mirror continue its steady decline this season. Seems Brooker likes that Netflix money a little too much.

I've started watching the BBC doco series Surgeons: Life on the Edge and it's f**king excellent.

Foxtel is now showing season 2 now however I'm on the last ep of season 1 as I'd never watched it before (only 3 eps in S1)

The skill involved is simply incredible. I've never had a problem watching graphic medical procedures and this doesn't flinch. In one instance a patient walks in looking in perfect health then leaves post-op having lost her right eye and with permanent right face paralysis (this particular case involved removal of a malignant cancer tumor in the right eye socket which basically involved removal of half the bone structure beneath her face, which they then rebuilt using part of her hip bone as a brace to support the face once again). It's also about the incredibly brave acceptance of this as a consequence of prolonging her life, of which there are no guarantees going in.

Then there's the lady with the 22kg sarcoma squashing her internal organs.

Highly recommended.

Why? She was hot as f**k in those seasons, one of the main reasons (along with the switch off your brain style) I watched the show back then.

Ugh, redheads are the devil's spawn ... she was probably a lefty (edit: handed, not political persuasion) as well.

Never watched the show but given I now know what both women you are talking about look like, I'd definitely go the Merlot.

Warriors started on Sky last night. Quality Kung fu, pissed Irishmen having massive craig and tonnes of hot Chinese birds with no clothes on. This show has potential!

Why did you post a pic of an albino man with a red wig?

Redheads have a lot in common with Welsh and Northern Irish accents - sexy as hell on women, but the men should all be burned with fire (or, in the gingers' case, exposure to a sunny summer's day!)

New series of Stranger Things is out next week - from the trailer it looks every bit as much of a love note to '80s teen movies/series as the earlier ones

Tend to think being a redhead accentuates looks. Don't see many average ones, male or female, either fugly or smoking hot.

Started Dead to Me last night and was pleasantly surprised by it. Hopefully it doesn't end up getting too sentimental or emotive and sticks to the funny, a lot has been made of it being written by women and that tends to be an aspect of female TV and film writing that I just can't get on board with.

1st episode was superb. NWR's films always look amazing. The lack of dialogue is a nice change - 70s all over again.

Was watching with the mrs and she was bored after half an hour. I'll probably go back to it but thought it was unnecessarily slow.

She's just a horrible whiny bitch, although, to be fair, that could also apply to yer man, whatisface, the youngish guy without the law degree. The fact I don't know the character's name says a lot about how much I pay attention but I still enjoy it.

Columbo hasn't aged well at all.
Even for brainless fun it's dull as dishwater.

Series 4 of ghomorra best yet.

Who was the best villain in Columbo? Shatner? McGoohan? Culp? Mrs C?

Oh yeah! Now I'll be able to remember it. They should name all characters in tv shows after Irish sports men and women
