    Finished Tiger King last night. It was alright, but could have been done in three episodes tops. Seven episodes was way too much, they were dragging around showing fuck all half of the time.

    I'm 10 minutes into the new season of Sunderland 'Til I Die and it's already clear that Charlie Methven and his maroon chinos is going to be the pinnacle here.

    The Rocky training montage episode of the Mandalorian has arrived. As stiff as Gina Carano makes me, it still couldn’t save what was a fairly boring episode.

    Anyone seen The Devil Next Door. I just one-sitted it, it was actually really interesting. Basically suspected Nazi war criminal wokring for Ford and living in Cleveland in the 1980's and is deported to Israel to stand trial.

    I spent most of last series feeling a bit of love for Sunderland. This Season, it's hard going. It would be alot easier if Charlie died as soon as possible.

    Was really enjoying Sunderland til I Die, and then episode 3 has the warning at the start for ‘injury detail’ so that stops me in my tracks with it.

    Episode 5 has close ups of Nigel Farage. That should have a warning.

    Gore

    You see his finger. It's swollen and in a splint. That's about the depth of it.

    What has that got to do with anything? I don’t care about the wellbeing of the player in either scenario.

    I’m just not bloodthirsty. So many shows have to go with it as a gimmick these days instead of working on a good story.

    It only annoys me when I’m enjoying a show and have to leave it so because of it. There are very few shows I’ve seen recently that are enjoyable anyway so it’s not that big a deal.

    Not sure what to watch next. Has anyone watched Lost in Space on Netflix?

    That was very good. Into series two now and looking forward to seeing if the new chairman lad (the posh one, not the owner) ends up as much of a spoofer as he’s seemed already.

    I has hoping for a posh David Brent, but he is much, much too much of a cunt to be considered so.

    The camera work is a bit more hollywood in the second series. Loses a bit of the realness and it feels a bit scripted, even though you know it isn’t.

    The Checkatrade final episode was brilliant.

    Seeing Methven get ever so slightly agitated and his partner try to calm him down

    Reminds of a few marketing consultancy types I've since being down here, his obsession with Ibiza in particular. Harking after the couple of summers when he was doing industrial levels of coke in clubs as opposed to industrial levels of cocaine in bistros...

    I enjoyed seeing the seafront hotel I stay in when working in Sunderland used by the management team ahead of the first game, truly the only place I have ever managed to find that's not on a ring road.

    Just finished it. Not as good as the first season, but still enjoyable. Methven really is a grade A cock. His behaviour in the Checkatrade final was ridiculous for a club director.

    American Factory documentary on Netflix is pretty interesting and a stark reminder how much it would suck to be Chinese.

    My favorite part was the American supervisor going over to China and walking into a high level meeting wearing a Jaws shirt.

    I'm almost through. I think he's extremely aware of wanting to come across as A PROPER FOOTBALL FAN in spite of his spivishness. Went a lot less plummy at the town hall meeting.

    Am I being incredibly naive but how did the offer go through for the young striker to Bordeaux when the owner knew nothing about it? Would he not have to accept the offer and sign paperwork?
