LimeGreenLegend 4,175 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Just finished binge watching GLOW on Netflix, it is fucking fantastic. GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling) is a fictional account of the real life all women wrestling show from the 80s and you all should watch it, whether you're a fan of wrestling or not. The cast is amazing (Alison Brie, Marc Maron, and an amazing performance by actual wrestler Awesome Kong as the character "Welfare Queen") the fashion and music are authentically 80s, not like some parody show, and the way they treat wrestling, and explain it to people who have no idea about the business is better than any attempt I've previously seen, one quote from the show that sums it up perfectly "is this real?" "who gives a fuck." Also, it has lots of boobies and a cocaine dispensing robot. 11/10, please commission a second series now Netflix It's by the people behind Orange is the New Black, if that's worth anything.

Crawford1872 2,580 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Finished The Punisher last night (more accurately around 6am) Best Marvel thing i’ve seen in a while. The writing and acting is brilliant. As far as the action goes I can only describe it as being like John Wick on steroids. Also pretty emotional at points. Well worth watching. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banketelli 3,655 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) Peaky Blinders... what a show and some brilliant performances! But the standout is the leading actor Cillian Murphy. Didn't take many scenes before I had completely forgot about him as Scarecrow. Though that all went to hell in season 2 when Tom Hardy entered the show and The Dark Knight was all I could think of.

Guest Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I don't watch T.V. anymore because I'm usually on YouTube or the PS4. I've been trying to catch up to the Empire series via Hulu (if I decide to get on board with that - recently discontinued Netflix just to save me a lil' chump change, but reactivated my Spotify 'cause I can't play PS4 w/out music - wtf right? i know.. ) 'cause I love me some Cookie. Other than that .. no. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lann 10,838 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Taking a break from the walking dead after not being so happy with the first episodes of the season.

Good huh last two episodes I found to be a cut above the rest even then. Really really loved the editing/crossover between the scene with the paul weller song and the fighting (had to get that written spoiler free) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel 5,180 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Punisher is looking good. The Mrs wasn’t that keen about the suggestion but she was hooked after the opening scene. 4 episodes down now. Will probably get it all finished by the end of the weekend.

LimeGreenLegend 4,175 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I’m also in agreement that The Punisher is awesome. Probably the best Marvel/Netflix show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmurko 7,622 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) I've been binge watching several TV shows over the last few months, mostly catching up on some of them or even watching older shows, with a few new shows as well. Among them were Narcos, Lucifer, Wired, Better Call Saul, ... I've just finished '13 Reasons Why'. A 13 episode long 1st season, I think it's another Netflix production. It's a tough watch at times due to the subject, but well made. It touches several teenage (and adult) issues, mostly suicide, along with depression, bullying, rape, ... and how they affect everyone around. A well made show with great acting by young actors/actresses. I actually couldn't really watch more than 1 episode at a time until I was well into the season, as it's not really a lighthearted entertainment. Definitely recommend it. Next on the list now is 'Master of None'... Edited December 1, 2017 by zmurko 1 Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel 5,180 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Vikings has returned and is as intriguing as ever. One little annoyance for me though and it’s the second time this has happened with TV shows set in this period recently. It makes me wonder if location scouts actually do any research. The great heathen army marched on York, the problem I have with the location used in Vikings and in The Last Kingdom is that they show York surrounded by hills. Anyone whose ever been there will know there’s not a single hill within 20 miles of York! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinister 2,578 Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Need to finish watching Mindhunter. First two episodes were good. Anything relating to Serial Killers has always interested me. Being a fan of animation, I just finished the first season of Big Mouth, some crazy stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmurko 7,622 Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Oh yeah, Mindhunters was also among the shows I've binge watched lately. It's pretty good for a first season (beginnings of profiling criminals and all the psycho stuff). Could be improved, but it's an interesting watch for sure. Main character needs some improvement (pretty dull) and I hope they actually start using their new gained knowledge solving more cases in 2nd season if there's gonna be one. Put it on your list if you're looking for new shows to watch. Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
