Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted November 8, 2020 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 8, 2020 Two episodes into The Queen's Gambit and it's just wonderful. Is Anya Taylor-Joy the best actress on the planet now? Yes she is. But it's a show that's mindful of people like me where our only knowledge is from that episode of Bottom. It's inch perfect so far. Into the fifth series of Brooklyn Nine-Nine and the standard just hasn't dropped at all. The characters continue to evolve at a decent rate and its self-awareness is growing too. I also started Mad Dogs and really enjoyed the first two episodes. Feels like one of those things that might run out of steam quickly but it's been a really good start.

The King Of Swing Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 After seeing that clip I'm glad I forgot all about Spitting Image being brought back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve just finished the second episode too, she’s great. I really want to play chess now, anyone know how to play chess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m assuming you’re watching the more recent US version that was on Prime, as I wouldn’t imagine you as one for watching Sky’s Original Drama output. As for that Spitting Image clip- I get that with how everything moves nowadays they need to knock something out quickly before it’s old news, but that was fucking horrific and seemed like they just filmed the first idea that came out of their heads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take that as a compliment, I think, but no, it's the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the original because it had Simm & Glenister in it and I really enjoyed Life on Mars. I can’t remember a whole lot about it if I’m totally honest, so it might be worth revisiting. And I wasn’t intending my original comment as a compliment or a cheap-shot (sorry if it came across that way), I just seem to remember you mentioning thinking that Sky’s Drama output was a bit shit so stirred clear of them. I could be confusing you with someone entirely though, so apologies for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always liked the look of this though, probably because of the cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wordsfromlee Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I really enjoyed Save Me, The Tunnel, the first series of Tin Star, Chernobyl, the Julia Davis stuff like Camping and Sally4eva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Chernobyl is HBO isn’t it? There’s no way Sky are taking credit for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted November 9, 2020 Moderators Share Posted November 9, 2020 I've started watching Brockmire. Hank Azaria's sitcom about a disgraced baseball commentator working for a shit minor league team. I've only seen the first couple episodes so far but they had some good laughs. Will certainly be continuing with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
