Like the sound of that, is it subtitled ?

Makes no odds to me either way.

It is yeah. Always better to be subbed than dubbed!

Deffo worth a go if you like the sound of it. It's kind of a cop drama mixed into it as well, can't go too much more in depth as it will spoil things as there are loads of twists etc.

Been watching Black on Netflix.

It's a Korean show about Grim Reapers and a girl who can see when people are about to die. Dark and comedic. It's brilliant. Very long episodes though, running at around 70 minutes.

Just had a look at it.

Gets very good reviews and sounds right up my street.

18 episodes !!!

Let me know your thoughts if you do give it a go.

Along somewhat similar lines Million Yen Women is pretty good too. Basically 5 women turn up at some blokes apartment and pay him loads to live there but he cant ask them why they are there or anything about their past. Not quite as good as Black but a great quick weekend binge show.

Watched the first season of Sherlock for first time the other day after seeing how highly rated it is on IMDB etc but I was left massively underwhelmed. The first episode was kinda ok but the next two were meh, I was having doubts after the first episode but the second and third episode have pretty much killed any enthusiasm for watching the following seasons.

Does it get better ?

The Chalet on Netflix...not usually into french stuff...very good though. Deffo worth the watch
Oh....
And Goliath. A monster show, Billy bob, Drinking, murder and more drinking...a cracking, Cracking second series to boot. Love a bit of Billy me.

Not really a series and more of a documentary, but that Orangutan Jungle School and channel 4 is ace

Made me laugh I'm sad to admit.

Watch it again, with the subtitles on.

You miss loads of the word play, due to the Southern drawl.

It`s an incredible piece of TV.

It’ll get that second watch, no problem. I always tend to watch things I’ve enjoyed multiple times and that always brings out things I hadn’t properly seen or fully appreciated first time round.

Instatiable on Netflix

Funny, camp as Christmas and definitely guilty pleasure territory.

My new fave.

I think there are like 2 or 3 decent episodes. But mainly it’s rubbish, and of course, Cumberbatch is a dick.
