In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
The best, most underrated series on TV. Each season just gets better. Deserves more respect.
OTT hype for shows like Stranger Things (Don't @ me I've seen every episode).
Stranger Things is overrated The OA is actually better.

Man, what an ending. this season is so bonkers.
I hope they don't go down the route of Kevin going mental again.
So what about the
explosion that was mentioned? I think it's nuclear, As the paranoid guy in the airport was screaming about.
Maybe something to do with those scientists who Nora was trying to expose.
Not impossible, but that would imply that the machine was destroyed, and I think we will see this device in action at the end of the season.
That episode
Poor Matt, always kicked from pillar to post
Episode six was incredible. Just when you think the show has peaked it delivers another masterpiece of an episode.
Such an underrated show. I keep having to recommend it to friends and family.
The best episode of the season? Has to be.
Is it worth watching? Have been looking for a serial for sometime
just finished season 1. Pretty good if you ask me.
no really sure what's going on though. Gonna start season 2 soon.

Very much so.
Season one is pretty hit and miss and difficult to watch at times, but season two and three (so far) are up there with the very best TV.
Just caught up with the last couple of episodes.
Typical Leftovers fashion that I'm still pondering why the doctors refused Nora after asking her about the two babies, and what the "I'm 91 and having a son" thing was about. Oh, it was a song.

Episode 6 was fecking great. Easily the best of the season so far.
I'm 3 episodes into the current season, and this show is reaching some pretty rarefied air, and by that I mean Sopranos/Wire levels of excellence. One of the best, most moving things I've ever seen (with the best soundtrack of any show ever.)
That is very high praise indeed!
I wouldn't say it's up there with them but it's certainly a breath of fresh air.
I think it has been up there for portions. The last 5 episodes of Season 2 were incredibly high standard.
I've also only just realised we only have 2 episodes left!

last night watched episode 1 of season 2...
WTF!!! for a moment i thought i had the wrong torrent! a completely different show...

that was my reaction too, just stick with it
Ok, ill trust you.
PS. A Tv Series of a family of cave men would be fecking epic. Kinda enjoyed the story of that mother at the beginning...
I have really enjoyed all 3 series of this show but my fear is that they will feck up the ending. How can you end this is any sort of satisfying way?
I hate all of the intros in all 3 seasons. The graphics are irritating and they have never nailed the intro music - ranging from ho hum to appallingly wrong choices. Shame as the rest of the show is top notch.
True Detective showed how to do good titles with music that work together.
Series 2 isn't bound by the novel, so they take more chances and it becomes much crazier as a result. When you get to the end I'm fairly sure you'll look back on it being one of the best series of anything you've ever seen. It's brilliant.Ok, ill trust you.

Episode 6 of series 3 was one of the most emotional episodes of the whole show. Superb. I got some dust in my eye towards the end which might've given the impression that I was hopelessly blubbing. Wasn't though.
Season 1 intro was fairly boring but I thought the 'Let The Mystery Be' intro was a pretty idiosyncratic and inspired choice, took a while for it to grow on me but I love it now.
I like how the intro songs in season 3 relate to the episodes.
Season 1 being patchy and the show only running three seasons stops it from being in The Wire territory for me. If we're just judging individual seasons though, 2 and 3 (so far) are right up there with anything The Wire has done.
I haven't liked the intro music for this season, and the first season intro was a bit boring. For some reason, though, the second season intro really grew on me.
You sort of don't, really. I imagine it'll be a lot less polarising than Lost, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it being divisive in this thread.
Season 2 titles music as OK and with better titles may have been very good.
That whole scene when Nora tells that story of Usher is incredible.
Yeah, that was great. Was full of superb moments - and all down to the quality of writing and acting.
This current season is up there with the best seasons I've ever seen (Season 4 of The Wire, Season 1 of The Sopranos, Season 4 of Breaking Bad, even Season 2 of The Leftovers.) It's just an incredibly powerful show, one that allows you to examine your own feelings of loss and grief (divorce, death of loved ones: in their own way, these things can feel like sudden departures, things that you revisit over and over again, wondering how they happened and what you could have done differently, and how you can somehow take control of your emotional reaction post-even, however futile that may in fact be. I've lost count of the number of times part of me wants to watch the beach ball be passed around among the crowd, while the other, seemingly more rational, half reaches out to deflate it.)
I think it's almost miraculous how the supernatural element that initially provides the foundation for the show (ie. the Sudden Departure,) can feel so beside the point at times.

That scene made me uncomfortable as feck.
Kevin's penis makes quite a thud.
You mean the
Kevin pushes his hand inside Kevin
Just 1 more episode left. Its ending a season too soon at least.
