While my sad teenage ass sat locked in at home, hiding from bullies, daydreaming I was Kevin. GOOD TIMES. I might give this new one a go as well. Fred Savage is actually a producer. The Wonder Years, Boy Meets World, and Saved by the Bell are the series I remember best from my childhood, I think Yeah, give it a go. I watched all 3 episodes available today, really like it. Don Cheadle is the narrator, love it. 1 Quote

And the main actor is actually the brother of the actor who played Kevin in the Wonder Years. Did you know that the narrator from the orginal Wonder Years was Marv from Home Alone? Found that out YEARS later. Don Cheadle seems like a very good choice though. Quote

Ploughendplonker Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 Slightly off-topic but recently saw the Only Fools and Horses Musical. Never been to a musical before, but like many I am a big fan of OFAH. I thought the way they amalgamated different plots and the story arc into one 2 hour show was quite well done. If I had one minor criticism I would've liked more of the songs to be slightly more on the upbeat side. Quote
Eco Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 Been hearing that the series ' To The Lake' on Netflix is good. Also has Krill in it which is one of my favorite Russian (although I think he is actually from Estonia) actors. I think it came out in 2019 so needless to say, this is a bit eerie about a pandemic. 1 Quote
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted October 17, 2021 Subscriber Posted October 17, 2021 Watching an old episode of Bruce Forsyth's Play Your Cards Right and one of the questions was How many women said that laying eggs instead of babies would be a lot easier and around 60% said yes. Funny because that reminded me of @Devil and his Duck thread, watching that hatch, imagine an egg in an incubator whatever then your wife runs in saying "DARLING...THE EGG IS READY TO HATCH..." and the two of them waiting eagerly, is it a boy or a girl? 1 Quote
Lucas Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) I just finished watching The Chestnut Man on Netflix. Basically Danish police in a Cat and Mouse chase, hunting a serial killer who leaves a little man made of chestnuts as his calling card but obviously, much more to it than that but it's the jist. Only 6 episodes but really enjoyed it. Cleverly done and all came together nicely with no loose ends. I do like that moody Nordic noir vibe, especially this time of year. Proper good wintery, afternoon TV. Would recommend particularly if you like that style. Edited October 20, 2021 by Lucas Quote

Will recommend it to him, cheers. Quote
Waylander Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 I used to read the Marvel comics as a kid, 7-8 and liked them all: Hulk, Spiderman, Captain America, Daredevil, the Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer. Not really into the films though saw the first Spiderman and thought it was ok. Quote
Rick Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 YOU Season 3 - Ridiculous, farfetched with plot holes all over the place…but it was damn entertaining. Most fun season so far - 8/10 Quote
MUFC Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Just finished all 4 episodes of The Billion Dollar Code, this was brilliant - 9.5/10. Quote
Ploughendplonker Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 You might have seen the advert on the BBC for the new sitcom 'The Outlaws', the one with 'I fought the law' by the Clash as the background music. Having watched the show, an inappropriately jovial accompanying song if ever there was one. It's well-written but the storylines look incredibly bleak. Quote
Guest Posted November 2, 2021 Posted November 2, 2021 Just watched the first episode of the new doctor who series. Brilliant. I personally feel that the first series with whitaker wasnt great but the second was much better. This series only has 6 episodes and the first was one of the best ever episodes I have seen. 10/10 Quote
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted November 4, 2021 Subscriber Posted November 4, 2021 Just wrapped up season 2 of Mr Robot, 2 more seasons to go. I love it. Rami Malek is immense and carries alot of the show but I just love the unpredictability and how all over the place he is and we are as the viewer. The Jail section is fantastic once the fog is lifted and you see what all hes created in his head, Craig Robertson is great as per usual as well. I love the cliff hanger ending with Tyrell appearing and shooting Elliot but we dont really know if its actually real or not or if Tyrell is even alive. Im just soaking it all up man. 1 Quote

I don't mind it, but don't like McGuinness as host. Can see why they got rid of Dawson and Tuffnell, but wasn't sure why they got rid of Sue Barker. Quote
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted November 17, 2021 Subscriber Posted November 17, 2021 Been watching Deadwood, Im almost done season 1. Its a little slow going but the characters are turning out real good about now. Ian McShane is awesome as one of the leads. Absolutely my favourite scene so far I was laughing my ass off (warning for language and a tad racist but it fits the show) 1 Quote
yeriq Posted November 18, 2021 Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) I get addicted with the Anime series, Hunter X Hunter series is currently on my watching list, it has total 7 season and I'm watching 47th episode's of 5th season. Edited January 27, 2022 by yeriq Spell correction Quote
