Re: Tele
The first episode has promise. Knowing who he is adds interest, but he is his own character, it is a prequel, so more or less all new content, though we see a few faces that we know from the future.
Too early to say if its going to be any good, does not look like you need BB knowledge.

Walking Dead, thoughts on that come back?
A bit underwhelmed I thought

Re: Tele
It was stupid.
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.

Re: Tele
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.

Re: Tele
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.

Re: Tele
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 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.

Re: Tele
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.
