Anyone watching Westworld?
Was it leaked early last night or anything?
I can't imagine it would've been leaked online before HBO even showed it but some fucking bullshitting dickhead in my work claimed he was watching it at midnight. He asked me if I'd seen last night's today and I said no because it only aired in America last night so I'd have had to have been up stupidly late to see it and he said he was watching it at midnight.

HBO shows do sometimes get released early on their online service. I know it happened with Game of Thrones a couple of times.
Last week's was, I think erroneously, released on their online service on Saturday afternoon, and so ended up on every extant Torrent site a full day before it aired, so it's absolutely possible.
Nah, they aired last week's early on the Friday because they didn't want to clash with the presidential debate on Sunday.
It's not just this either. He's been noticed by a few people talking shit about various things.
Nah it didn't leak early this time round.
Should have asked him for the specifics of what happened. It's always easy to catch a serial bullshitter out.
Third episode bored me to tears save the last 10 minutes or so. It's just dull western interspersed with (faux-)philosophical talk that goes on for way too long.
BtN is still down so yet to get round to it.
I asked him if it was any good and he said 'I don't want to say anything, I don't want to give you any spoliers.' To be honest, in case he had actually seen it, I didn't want to know any details.
BTN is back up
Was talking to someone else in work about the bullshitter yesterday. He said he had claimed to have gone to a midnight screening of Suicide Squad when it first came out in a nearby town. The guy I was talking to checked at the time and there was no midnight screening. So, yeah, he's just a habitual liar.
Just watched the episode of The X-Files with Bryan Cranston in.
Actually thought the movie was good too - just a longer episode with a bigger budget, really - so onto season six now. Still really liking it.
I'm a twit
The Bryan Cranston episode is really good. I haven't watched any in about six months but you've inspired me to pick it back up Baz. I'm just a little bit ahead of you. Same season but episode nine. Also, I thought the film was quite good too.

That was one of the scenes which sold me on the show completely. Get that man an Emmy, stat.
Have you seen the latest episode... "I will slit you both open from mouth to anus and wear you like jackets" seems a little out of place for the Captain, though delivered superbly.
He's by far the best thing about it.
Bingpot!
Anyone watch Black Mirror? I think I remember Boyd frothing over it but if not it definitely seems like something he would adore. As it stands I'm loving US Office and brooklyn 99.
I liked most of the series bar the Waldo one, looking forward to seeing the Netflix episodes.
It was stunning.Have you seen the latest episode... "I will slit you both open from mouth to anus and wear you like jackets" seems a little out of place for the Captain
Is Sherlock really that good? Also we can add Peaky Blinders to the list of series I've not and never will finish.
pissed myself at the last line
I haven't seen the last series yet. Worth bothering with? I have enjoyed it overall but my main concern is that Jackson is so much better than everyone else in it that I just find myself waiting for the next time he comes on screen.
Closing in on the end of Season 2 of Better Call Saul.
The Mike stuff and Jimmy playing fast and loose with legal ethics stuff is really good, but the lawyer firm and Chuck stuff is boring the tits off me now.
The stuff at the firm is tedious beyond belief.
The best episode they've done is still the Mike spotlight towards the end of the first season. Written by someone who'd never had a single thing produced and spent the entirety of Breaking Bad as Gilligan's assistant, by the way.
I didn't realise I hated Chuck until the guy who plays him turned up in The X-Files and I absolutely despised him. You were supposed to dislike him anyway, but I couldn't stand him.
I'm a twit
I could't get intoBetter Call Saul which is a shame because Breaking Bad was probably my favourite series of all time. Should have give Jesse his own.
Yep, that spotlight stuff was brilliant.
Agree entirely on the law firm stuff just being tedious crap and has had the second season meandering toward nowhere for about 4 episodes now. Every time I see that dribbling flange near a light or with his fucking stupid foil coat, I can't believe what Gilligan was thinking. I just couldn't give a shit.
As an aside though, I want to watch Breaking Bad again.
I'm already on Season 4 of The Good Wife. I've absolutely rammed through it with 3-4 episodes a night. It's like popcorn.
This Morning is on because idiot colleague got to staff room first this lunch, but Roger Moore and Bryan Cranston have been rather excellent guests. Probz not worth watching on catch up but still.
The Missing really is absolutely outstanding TV.
Is that the French one? I'm two episodes in, promising so far. Beautiful cinematography.
British. First series set in France, 2nd in Germany. It's about kidnapped kids. Is that what you're watching?
No, I was referring to something called Les Revenants.
Ah, I watched that too. The first series was brilliant. The 2nd series lost me a few episodes in.
Do you have to watch the first before the second or are they totally separate stories?
Of The Returned or The Missing?
The former, absolutely. The later, no, though it adds depth to a main character.
Sorry, quoted the wrong bit, I was referring to The Missing.
I thought the first series of The Returned was brilliant but I only watched the first episode of the second series and have yet to get back to it.
You'll be fine with just the 2nd. The first was great though, so watch it too if you can.
That said, it's a mind fuck in nature so the first series could suddenly become relevant out of fucking no where.
That heist episode of B99 was the best one of the lot. Holt is fucking brilliant.
Started The Walking Dead a week or two ago. On season 2 now. That little lad's an annoying gimp.
There's some really great stuff early on. Episode 1 is probably my favourite pilot in a long time.
Planet Earth is on tonight

Watched the first episode of something BTN recommended named 'Letterkenny', about a little farming town in Canada. It's absolutely bonkers, and quite good fun. It's like Napoleon Dynamite: The Series, but with considerably more swearing.
Masterchef the Professionals
When did it start back?
Tonight.
Unless someones said so already: Rick and Morty season 3 should be out fairly soon.
New series of 'Dave Gorman: Modern Life is Goodish' starting in half an hour. I'm fairly sure a few on here watched it before.
Happy days, I've missed nothing bar the first 15 minutes or so. On series record now.
The bint needs to put the hair dye down though.
