    Agreed. It's brilliant every week but I really liked this one. The spot the difference task was great too, as was Mark promising a sneeze "within 2-3 working days"

    Edit- They're doing a Champions series after this one, which should be absolutely fantastic.

    I haven't started it yet but it's hard to imagine that it wont be the best season thus far.

    Bob is fucking brilliant.

    There's something about Mark Watson I can't get along with, but he has his moments in this all the same. Alex Horne is always great

    My mum said “I like Mark Watson, I feel like he’d be easy to just sit and have a conversation with,” but I almost feel the exact opposite. His awkwardness is entertaining though.

    Wasn't sure about season 3 of Narcos at the beginning but I'm really enjoying it now (on the penultimate episode). It's so tense.

    Weird that David is Jaime from Broad City though.

    He's such a fucking cunt, also reminds me of a dickhead from school which probably doesn't help.

    Oh yeah, absolutely hate him in this.

    But he's a really camp cheeky chappy in Broad City. It's odd.

    I looked up that Men Who Sleep in Cars thing after you mentioned it. It's all in verse?

    What was the other programme?

    So VICELAND is pretty much my favourite Sky channel (153) now. Has anyone watched Party Legends? It’s really Z-list celebs telling amusing stories, and they’re all animated differently. Some are just plain dumb but some (Ryan Sickler’s one, for example) are really funny.

    Same channel also shows Its Always Sunny and something called Nuts & Bolts which is Tyler The Creator and Jasper Dolphin Just arsing about and “learning” stuff.

    Lol so the pharmas made synthetic opiods as a cheap painkiller, the Chinese have since found out the addictive qualities and are selling it to the Mexicans who are flooding the US with it. NICE.

    Anyone watching Snowfall on BBC? Sounds like something I’ll really like, so will probably wait for the whole series to record so I can binge it.

    EDIT I buckled and watched episode one. Yep, seems great and the music is boss. Looking forward to the next one. Recommended

    Mark Watson's entry for the prize task tonight is probably the best single entry they've ever had on Taskmaster.

    Recently watched series three of Black Mirror. First episode wasn't quite as good as I've come to expect but loved the rest. San Junipero in particular as it was quite different (or at least, appeared to be initially).

    Was that the trousers, or is there another episode online already?

    Thought he was genuinely robbed with the trousers.

    I've been watching the first season of The Affair recently, it's quite good. The way they split the episodes into halves, with a perspective from each of the two people involved in said affair, is very clever. It's got a good cast too. It's the first decent thing I can recall seeing Dominic West in since The Wire.

    Just could not get in to Black Mirror at all. First one was just obviously aimed at liberal wet weekends and the second one was a load of timewasting shit so I promptly deleted the lot. Charlie Brooker can be a testing cunt at times.

    Second ep of Dark States tonight.

    You don't need to watch them in order. Read the synopsis and watch the ones that appeal to you. White Christmas is probably my favourite.

    That was good. Shut up and Dance as well. The one that seems to get lauded most (San Junipero) is the one I gave up on. Although I've just realised I've still got the last two to watch.

    You should've at least watched the next episode, I reckon it would've really resonated with you.

    Just found out Mr Robot is back on. Did anyone make it through Season 2. I stopped after the Chinese started bumping people off and it was clear for the 80th time in 2 seasons that we were dealing with an unreliable narrator.

    I chucked Mr Robot after the first episode of season two, when the twist they were very obviously going to end the season with was clear about half an hour in.

    I've just read the Wikipedia and realised I watched every episode save the last one, the twist you're thinking of gets revealed about half way through.

    I managed to get through all Mr Robot, although to be honest it's total bobbins. I rate the actors in it though and it's fairly watchable (if you can shut down some of the critical thinking parts of your brain).

    I found Mr Robot to be complete garbage only 2 episodes in. It was so edgy.
