Toby Jones is ace. Did you ever start Endeavour, Jimmy?
I did but didn't get very far until the Great Fiction Blackout of March-April 2020 kicked in.
Ah, okay. How much had you watched? Were you enjoying it?
About three episodes and yes, pretty good.
Roger Allam did the voices for Sarah & Duck, a rare children's program that I didn't mind having to watch a million times.
I finished Narcos Mexico recently. It was good, I really enjoyed. Stands with the original. Does anyone know if there's going to be any more of it? It'd be good if they followed Chapo's rise.
Also started Silicon Valley.
You'll survive a season and a half before they all become parodies of themselves
Nice one
:D
Oi, Giggles, get in here for some 4-way Royal Rumble action, you fucking lepper.
Finished The Good Place last night. Pretty perfect.
I still need to go back to that as apparently it completely changed and got really good. At the start it was just formulaic ‘sticky situation - phew’ every week.
I liked it from the start. I'm not convinced if you didn't like the start that you'd like it any better later but others may think differently.
I left it so long I had to rewatch 3 again before I did 4.
I think the end of season 2 was a bit of a slog, if I remember.
I watched two episodes, one of which introduced the fucking tired hurtling traincar philosophy conundrum and thought it was the worst TV i'd seen in years. it's gotten so much hype tho that i'm tempted to try it out again
Finished Ozark season 1. Shades of Breaking Bad. Just as stressful and dramatic imo.
I heard season 2 of Ozark was not as good but I'm 7 episodes into it and I don't see the dip. It's great drama.
I didn't like season 2 because it was too political.
Season 3 though (especially the second half) is great.
Andy Samberg doesn't have a British wife nor is the type to have fallen onto a serious drug habit. What the sweet fuck is he doing in this Cuckoo with Greg Davies on BBC1 atm? It's shite too but I could watch the sexy charismatic cunt curl one out tbqfh.
Community are doing a readalong thingy.

No Chevy, soz @Don
I dont think Chevy’s ever been invited to the reunion of anything he’s worked on. Yung dirtbag
I'm nearly at the end of my Community rewatch now and as well as my previous gripe about the latter seasons the Dean is far too central a character. Jim Rash is great but the character is too OTT to be a core part of a majority of episodes.
Yeah I think them leaning into his weirdness (which often ruins sitcom characters) led to some great moments and then they got too excited with that and decided that we wanted more in both senses.
The Pike Enterprise show is happening :drool:
Was Hatton Garden any good when it was on last year? I see VM1 are showing the 4 parts starting on Tuesday here.
The basketball documentary series is well worth a watch.
Jordan's eyes are terrifying though.
It looks like he has jaundice.
Yeah he's got a bit of a Zig and Zag look, as if all of his middle age spread settled on his head.
I haven't finished it yet but fuck Isiah Thomas.
I finished it as well yesterday. I thought it was absolutely awesome. If anything, it was a little tricky following the timelines, even if I also got what they were trying to do. But like for example the second or third episode focusses on Dennis Rodman, and then the coming 3 episodes take place before he was even there, and it made it all a bit confusing.
For some reason the whole series made me feel inexplicably sad though. I think it's something in the look of MJ's eyes when he's being interviewed present-day. But also just nostalgia I guess.
Just wanted to say I would have made another viewing guide for Eurovision, but it's been cancelled so I didn't feel like it.
Might be because of the accompanying lockdown meme but I haven't stopped getting enough of the Icelandic entry for the last month.

Yeah, wasn't fond of that entry but it's obviously entertaining.
For your average British audience here's a selection:
Balkan sluts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Y0cczOeznQ
Pretty funny: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_dWvTCdDQ4
Trying too hard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KoJfSgBZQ0
Likely winners were Lithuania and Switzerland I'd reckon. I'm not even going to post links, we all know Iceland would have won after going viral.
And a bonus. This one couldn't get out of the Finnish National Final, instead we got some lardass pretending to be Ed Sheeran. Time to just cancel Finland and give it to Estonia.

Take it to DM's you fucking weirdos.
Iceland is outstanding tbf

Back to the basketballing. Given that his legal/personal problems didn't really emerge until the 2000s, was Dennis Rodman's 1990s the best decade anybody will ever have?
