Re: Goggle box- anything worth watching on TV?
I'm fine with it. I hate it when they dub foreign stuff into English.
I used to watch BBC World Cinema movies back in the 70s. I always went on the basis that if foreign stuff made it onto Brit TV it was likely pretty good and I was rarely disappointed.
Usually I watch and sometimes I'm so into it I can't even remember if there were subtitles.

Not only did it not get soapy it actually got quite edgy. I watched the last 4 parts tonight.
It took me back to the 80s, although I was astonished that the Korean airliner being shot down was that long ago.
Do you have a theory about the gunshot at the end?
Spoiler:
Looks like a 1986 sequel due in 2018.

Sneaky Pete
This is actually very good-A kind of crime series -part Brian Cranston written, SP (not me) played by Giovanni Ribisi- ex Ted/Million ways to die in the West etc as the titular character.
Conman adopts the life of his cell mate when released whilst still having to contend with his old debtors who are gunning for him- including Vince, a nasty piece of work played by ....Brian Cranston.
Rotten tomatoes rated it at 100% which you don't often see. Just started watching it and will definitely see it out

It's perfectly legal 
Snoopdawg is doing the same... though not watching my stuff... With an Android box she does likewise but watches her own stuff- Hawaii 5/0, Bones and stuff.
I find it amusing that that is the only android thing that she taints her soul with, I'm amazed that she doesn't want Apple TV though I've heard it isn't very good- as you know, she is a sad worshipper at the Church of Cupertino
