The Capture on the beeb is quite good. All about CCTV and deep fakes, six episodes, one left to air. And Ron Perlman is in it.
Cheers,

I watched this recently and kinda enjoyed it. It's like Bright, but not fucking idiotic.

If you like a bit of fantasy with a slightly dark (sociopolitically, rather than Grimms) bent, then it's probably worth a look.

Yes Nic has been watching this when I've gone to the gym so I've just seen a few bits - but saw all the last one, it was very good. Hoping its not a let down last episode.

Ash Vs Evil Dead on Netflix. Hilarious. 10 Oldsmobile Deltas out of 10. Watching season two, somehow I missed it after watching S1 a while back.

Anyone watching A Confession on the ITV? I'm finding it a hard watch due to the fact it's a true story, I have young daughters & its poximity to where we live. First 4 episodes were heartbreaking, the 5th & I suspect the final are making my blood boil in how the detective was treated. Credit to the actors - must have been a tough gig.
Cheers.

It's very good but I'm not sure it's deserving of the hype - 5 episodes in to series 1 so far.

anything else on Netflix worth catching ??
OK, two Series down and, while still not completely deserving of the Hype, it is really very good. The kid actors are pretty amazing really, considering some of the content and the some of the more obscure 80's references are cool to spot.

I'm going to rewatch Mr Robot from the start as I've no idea what's happened in the past series' other than the really big plot points. I see its being released weekly so that works out fine.

Must watch Ash v The Evil Dead, its been on the to-watch list for a while now.
Cheers,

Mike.

You could skip S2 because the start of S3 cancels most of it out

I would be inclined to agree. Crowe is excellent.

Finally got into It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Watched the whole lot over the last wee while.

Now watching it through again as my missus did that thing where she paid no attention until I was on S11 or something so we just went back to the start when we finished it :lol:.

Caught some Fifth Gear just earlier on Quest (Nope never heard of that channel either). It’s even more awful now as it appears that they’ve dropped Tiff. I’m surprised they keep using the same dreary format...
How about not having a sig at all?

swamp thing wow episode 1 packed a whole lot of stupid into one hour. Pretty crappy animation too for a new series. Can't see it getting any better.

According to my nephew it was cancelled so I don’t think it will!

The Americas with Simon Reeves

2 episodes in - very good and worth downloading.
