TV Series

Been watching This Life, on bbc iplayer. What a nostalgia trip, still gripping stuff, great sound track too.

But watching from the older perspective, had so many thoughts running through my head, about own life.

Still love the series.

9.5 out of 10 ont binman score box.
Get a lot of nostalgia for shows from that era. Would like to rewatch Our Friends in The North soon.

Our Friends in The North i think i recall that being pretty gritty, and realistic representation, certainly in my mind of life... generally....

going back to this life +10 - disappointing at the moment, i don't think i actually watched it when it came out, somehow!!

I think they should have done an episode called 'the aftermath' from the wedding... but hey ho!
 
Just seen that The Great North got cancelled which I’m gutted about. Apparently because it wasn’t getting the same ratings as shows like Bobs Burgers, which when I’ve just look at their viewing figures for recent years, may also go the same way.
 
I`m half way through it ( 4 eps ).

A lot of influences, Hitchcock, Stephen King, Stranger Things amongst others.

It`s not remotely scary in anyway and I`d say the reviews are massively over hyped.

It`s " okay ", not great, has a made for tv feel about it and I`d say it`s one to watch when you`ve run out of anything else to watch.

One very annoying thing about it, is that the way it watches, the screen is really dark, so you miss stuff, as you can`t see things properly !
It's arse
I’m a couple of episodes in myself, and I have to agree, so far, it’s pretty much been naff, to say the least… 🤷
 
Don`t bother with any more, it just worse and more ridiculous.

It also appears to have been filmed through a gold fish bowl too.
I don’t want to get ahead of myself, and sound like a tit, but it’s starting to look like the Duffer brothers might be one-hit wonders… 😳

I hope not, though.

I did think that too, but when I looked at the credits, it would appear that they had an " input " into the making of it, with other people being much more involved in it`s making.

It looks to me, like they`ve used their name and peripheral involvement, to promote it and to get people like me, you and many others to watch it.
