    Saw Deepwater Horizon last night. Pretty good imo.

    Dealt with the issue on the rig, which were many, and the blow out.

    Good special effects. Worth a view.

    Watched the first 3 episodes of Designated Survivor - cracking telly.

    The 24 references are inevitable, but not really accurate.

    It's more like The West Wing with a healthy dash of House of Cards mixed with any standard police procedural.

    That doesn't really make it sound anywhere near as good as I found it.

    Ok, that sounds right up my street.


    We've been watching Luke Cage on Netfix [from the Marvel stable] and I'm not sure about it and we're 4 episodes in.

    Surely it's a double whammy.

    Finished Luke Cage and thought it was brilliant. I like that it (and Jessica Jones) were grounded in real issues so they had more going on than just the super hero thing, which is so common these days and they all have the same basic plot (personal tragedy, super powers, struggle between powers and normal life, blah blah blah). I like that it has such heavy references to hip hop, Harlem, Malcolm X etc.

    Suz, I think it's worth giving it a few more episodes at least, it gets better.

    Cheers Outcast ;ok

    Soooooooooooooo looking forward to The Walking Dead again. Don`t have much time for TV recently, and I don`t know if this has been mentioned, but have binge watched Scream Queens recently, daughter wanted to see it, and I have to say very cleverly scripted and I now have a new TV hero, step aside Daryl, hang up yer spurs Mr Phil Dunphy, Chanel Oberlin ;bowdown ;bowdown ;bowdown what a gal.

    Power 3 seasons on Netflix is pretty decent too ;ok

    Blacklist Season 4.

    Episodes 1 and 2 watched.

    I'd say 6 out of 10.

    Atlanta. By Donald Glover (was in Community, as a rapper known as Childish Gambino). Not full of action but a brilliant example of writing on society - which is why he created it, to show that existing scriptwriting was lacking. Not for everyone but I think it's brilliant.
  • HamstewHamstew
    Watching Lucifer. Not bad so far
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    I saw "I, Daniel Blake" this morning, having had some dealings with the benefits system with the ex-Mrs shrugged it is sadly only too accurate.

    I can certainly see why it won the Palme d'Or in Cannes, can see it sweeping up the BAFTAs, it might even dent the Oscars, probably best foreign language film as its mostly in Geordie and the Yanks will need subtitles
  • LukerzLukerz
    Anyone watching The Missing? ;bowdown

    Wasn't keen on series 1 thought it was meh but think season 2 is superb.
  • ClactoniteClactonite
    I'm watching it and although it's twisting my melon man and I don't really know what's going on, I still can't wait until the next episode to come round every week.
  • TwistandShoutTwistandShout
    Lukerz ;ok

    Clatonite, that's a great way to put it ;ok

    Any theories on what is happening?
