Just had a look at the All4 app and it’s showing all 24 episodes for S2. On my TV. Showed the same on the laptop too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a skim through the All4 app and there are episodes later on that are missing: S5E6, S6E16, S9E10, S10E6 and S11E6. S8 is missing the most though, that’s missing 5 episodes. I’m assuming those episodes contain some sort of “questionable content” that Channel4 have just decided to omit them rather than deal with any complaints. Definitely invest in the box set though, only £32 on Amazon at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is spot on all the time, his delivery exceptional. Really? He was always considered the MVP of the show. Doesn’t he hold the record for his run of Emmy nominations or something like that? He got nominated every year it was on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very possible they're missing for technical reasons. C4 had had tonnes of issues with on demand stuff since there was a fire at the site where this stuff is dealt with a few months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Bee, who do a lot of the subtitles and technical behind-the-scenes bits had a major power outage and Channel 4 seem to have been struggling to get back on track since then. I gather it's been a massive headache for all involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted December 9, 2021 Awards Moderator Share Posted December 9, 2021 I've probably shared this before but this piece on the Frasier Ski Lodge episode (which is 3 wall sitcom perfection) is a great read: https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/frasier-ski-lodge-oral-history-164309203.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted December 9, 2021 Moderators Share Posted December 9, 2021 I hadn't read that before - thanks. Was a fun read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Landscapers Way more surreal than I was expecting but it's gorgeous to look at and impeccably shot. Finding out afterwards that it was directed by Will Sharpe - who made Flowers - made a lot more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted December 12, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2021 I just watched the first two episodes of the new pro MasterChef on iPlayer (really it’s one episode chopped in two) and after the skills test I was amused to hear Pertwee tell us “Coming up after EastEnders.” Maybe it’s the wrestling fan in me but I assumed this was to sneak extra views for the first and last quarter of the depressing cockney bilge by catching premature tuners-in or people that can’t find the remote at the end of MasterChef, the more popular show, obviously.

Awards Moderator Frankie Crisp Posted December 12, 2021 Awards Moderator Share Posted December 12, 2021 No shame in saying I watched the first two episodes of And Just Like That. I can’t believe they did what they did, Charlotte looks like she’s been hit in the face with a frying pan, I’m not entirely sure I want to see Brady shagging and Deaf Steve is probably going to be the highlight of the series. 8/10.

Keith Houchen Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Really enjoying Chucky. Has a fun feel to it and pretty gory too. Also watched Top Of The Lake and that was suitably grim. Jane Campion is ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Succession - Superbly satisfying season finale. The season really kicked into gear at the half way point. I know they have said that it may have only 1-2 more seasons left, and I think that is perfectly fine if it manages to keep up this high quality. Superb foreshadowing in it all. Loved it.

As someone who liked SATC in its original run, I watched it thinking they may have corrected all that was wrong with the films. Somehow this was worse. The characters aren't even the same people anymore (and not in a 'growth' way). Kim Catrall really did have the right idea - though how they write her character out is ridiculous and another example of them somehow not understanding what she was as a character Just awful.
