Too early to say if its going to be any good, does not look like you need BB knowledge.

Ok, good thanks. I'll start recording it.

Walking Dead, thoughts on that come back?

A bit underwhelmed I thought :o

Forgot it was on.

This mid-season "break" thing kills shows for me. I guess I should go find it.

It was stupid.

Spoiler:
Tyrece had already been told the kids were twins, why was he staring at the photos as if this was news to him. He'd already seen the other kid was zombified and was kicking around the house, but just stood with his back to the door.


Anyone watching Better Call Saul? Expectations for this are huge following Breaking Bad, hopefully they can carry it off and have another excellent show. Thought last nights was better than the first episode, but these new series' always need a little time to get going. It's showing good promise IMO.

I totally forgot all about it till someone mentioned it a day or so ago...but now I'm thinking I'll give it a few weeks and binge if it's any good...

Thought the first 2 epsiodes were very good. It's great seeing all the crossovers from BB. BB ended at the right time but this is a great way to revisit all the old goings on.

I haven't seen it yet but have recorded it. Daughter said the first episode was slow..especially the first 30 mins...but then it started to pick up.

I'd agree with that. The more I think about last nights episode, the more I enjoyed it. The writing really is very good, I know there were times in BB where I felt like I didn't breathe for an entire episode. The characters just seem to dig themselves into some kind of hole, that is so cringe worthy, and all you're screaming at them, in your head, is STOP TALKING.

Did anyone catch The Slap?

The Ozzie, original was superb, so I'm not so sure how this would work out and how the racial tensions will pan out.

I saw the first two episodes. Loved it! Might have been mentioned previously, but the TV show Fargo (not the movie) is pretty good too. Billy Bob Thornton is scary :eek: Can be seen on Netflicks UK only, I believe.

I noticed there's a 3-part adaptation of "A Casual Vacancy" with Michael Gambon that started the other day. I wonder if it's any good.

We watched the first episode and found it too confusing. Trying to cram the intimate story of each and every resident into the introductory episode was a little too much. Not sure if we will give it another go.
