It was very good. Well worth a watch.
I finished all the seasons.
Yeah good show. Just finished it though. Tried Haunting at the hill house or whatever but thought the first episode was meh.
I just completed season one of 'You' last night. It delivered. The Haunting of Hill House was good, a bit overrated but good.
"You" looks good, downloading as we speak.
Agreed on "The Haunting of Hill House". It is good, altough not the #1 horror series some are rating it as. For me Exorcist season one is comfortably better.

Seasons 1-4 are epic television, replete with enough political intrigue to entertain aside from the sex and violence. Lately I’m just waiting for the next huge budget battle, but prior to it was a great story.
Just finished watching Tin Star, thought it was very good, enjoyed every episode. Excellent cast, great setting, binge-worthy.
The first 4 seasons are a great character driven fantasy show full of intriguing characters, political intrigue, plot twists and mysteries galore. Everything after that is half assed nonsense with a splattering of tits and dragons. It does have good storylines, but after season 4 it's just people doing random things to move the plot forward. No matter how little sense they make.
The acting ranges from fantastic to distractingly shit. You're better off reading the books to be honest, they are much, much better.
I read the first book. Parts of it were great, parts of it were a bit cack. I actually didn't read the last 4% or so according to my kindle as I felt I'd gotten all the enjoyment I was going to get from it. It gets a bit too religious.
anybody seen Condor.
A young CIA analyst Joe Turner, whose idealism is tested when he joins the CIA hoping to reform it from within but stumbles onto a terrible but brilliant plan that threatens the lives of millions.

Season 2 is not far from airing on Sky.
Was a good show. Enjoyed it.
Edit: almost forgot to post about the show I came in here to post about. S1 of The Sinner was worth the watch.
Just watched Watership Down, pretty good! 4.5/5 stars
Also high marks for Informer.

"You" is really good so far, I've seen 3 eps.
Also love how they do a pisstake on all stereotypes. "Artisanal soda" ffs, fecking douche.
Schitts Creek (netflix) made me laugh (season 1 - not sure it's worthy of 5 seasons, but I find S1 pretty funny)
"You" is pure trash TV but pretty enjoyable - good to watch with the missus
"Sex Education" is pretty surprisingly great. Hilarious and quite real at times, and the actors are all really good. Asa Butterfield is hilarious as the lead.

Any recommendations for "Into the Badlands"? I've only just come across it even though it's 3 seasons old. Looks interesting but is any good?
I sort of enjoyed the first season but then never got back into it, if you like martial arts sort of stuff then you'll probably enjoy it
I'll probably give it an episode or 2 tonight. Thing is, there are so many shows out there, i hate wasting time on crap ones.
The first series was good. It's got a very interesting setting and great action scenes. I struggled getting back into the second but it's still on my list.
Watched the 1st episode last night, it seemed ok tbh
Just watched the first season of Nathan For You. So fecking good 
Its amazingJust watched the first season of Nathan For You. So fecking good

I think 'Nathan' is using the same formula as Sacha Baron Cohen who has been doing this for years and is much funnier imo. I couldn't even get through the first episode of season 1.
Similar but not the same. Cohen does characters and tries shock and play on people's stupidity. This is different and it gets way better after episode 1.
Hell yeah.Just watched the first season of Nathan For You. So fecking good

Thanks for the feedback! I've watched the first four episodes now. Haven't been blown away yet, but it is certainly intriguing. Will continue.

I suppose its just not my cuppa and I gave up on it very quickly but, meh, thanks anyway.
Nathan For You is clearly a pisstake on that Lemonis guy. If you watch the show you will appreciate Nathan For You even more.

You should. The first few seasons are better than the books, and the next couple are good as well. You’re in luck if you start to watch it - I had similar feelings until season 4 and then could watch them straight through.
It’s been at it’s best when it can improve on the books but it’s great anyway.
And as always I’d recommend the sitcoms Detectorists (maybe the most touching sitcom I’ve ever seen) and Derry Girls.
Has anyone watched the French series Mission? I have it downloaded but I’ve yet to watch it.
I was just surfing some torrents and I noticed that Supernatural are on the 14th season.
I used to watch that stuff religiously up until season 8 or so. How they managed to get 14 seasons out of it is amazing.

Nathan for you is incredible. The very first section with the poo ice cream is a really bad choice to start the show though, it really doesn't reflect how good the show goes on to be. I wonder how many potential fans of it were lost because of them opening with that idea.
Just watched the netflix documentay Fyre about the fyre festival. Absolutely fascinating.

Anyone watching Trigger Warning with Killer Mike, on Netflix?
Done by Killer Mike of Run the Jewels.

Anyone seen Escape from Dannemorra?
Finished it a couple of weeks ago, the missis and I really enjoyed it. Del Toro, Dano and Arquette are superb, its a bit of a slow-burner but well worth the payoff. Based on true events.
You've just pinpointed what put me off the show. I believe all you guys who are raving about it but that first episode just felt so contrived to me that I sent the remainder of the season to my recycle bin. My loss probably as its obviously very popular but I don't think I'll go back.
I'm only up to the section where it jumps forward in time in the first book. Lost some momentum since then, but I'm enjoying it and will keep going back to it.
Any good recommendations for something to watch with the missus? This is us, looked promising but watching the trailer made it look really generic and bland.
Things like You, 13 reasons why would probably be ok - but I often find them formulaic and often have punchable characters.
I guess the request is for something I can equally tolerate.

So The Big Bang Theory is coming to an end soon. So sad
