You're lucky I'm not a mod in here

[Mikey Brown]

Why? You a big fan of the crying kid? Or the other crying kid? Or the crying Mum? Or the kid that cries but also has a bleeding nose?

Mikey B, you are a champion. You should do this professionally. For professionals.

I haven't watched either series of Stranger Things, but on the strength of the evidence presented here I can categorically state that Farrell is the best player in the Northern Hemisphere (We're talking about Chris, right?)

Blue Planet II.
It's dangerous to anthropomorphise animals.. 'fuck off, Grandma'.

Have you seen any of Matt Berry's nature short films, they are quite funny.

What is annoying me about Blue Planet 2 is the sound effects they put on for the underwater sequences, other than that it's pretty good.

Thought that's Matt Beery...?.
Haven't seen it. Know him from Mighty Boosh.

3 episodes into Ken burns Vietnam doc, its brilliant but so heavy, what a disaster, taking me a while to get thru it

Have you seen Ho Chi Min's son yet, that haircut is remarkable.

Ha no, I look forward to it, unlike the rest of the show which is going to increasingly distressing

Black Mirror coming out between Christmas and New Year - should make for a cheerful break from our current reality - which is probably why he isn't doing a 2017-wipe (it was depressing enough last year before the full horror of reality had hit)

I'm looking forward to that, there's also a new series of Sneaky Pete on Amazon shortly which should be good.

That’s a shame. Or are we just that far beyond satire at this point?

The League of Gentlemen series 4 has started.

Outstanding show. Very funny and dark. Just hope it can live up to the first 3 series.

[WaspInWales]

Watched the first episode of Black Mirror series 4 last night. It was pretty good too. It had the familiar cynical feel for modern technology, but with a nice homage to Star Trek.

Got the rest lined up to watch today.

Spiral, the excellent French crime drama, is back on BBC4. Well worth a watch.

Can’t follow the French, though. Need to persevere

Started watching "dark"a German show on netflix.

Similar in some ways to stranger things but better

That looked quite good. How far in are you? I'm still a bit scarred after the horrendous nosedive that Stranger Things took.

Watching the Leftovers at the moment. It's pretty patchy but really quite powerful at times.

I've seen 8episodes out of 10.

I would recommend. Really appreciating the way the plot is slowly revealed. A bit less Goonie like than stranger things if thats what got to you.

Fargo season III, similar to the last two, worth a look.

[Mikey Brown]

Anyone watching Ash vs the Evil Dead?

It's great, undemanding viewing, with each episode being a brisk 30 minutes or so each. It's a pulp series that oesn't have any pretensions about what it is, and chooses instead to revel in it, while demonstrating an astonishing command of its own characters (you'd expect that considering that the Raimi brothers are involved)

I’ve been told it’s like the good bit s of walking dead without all the preachy, emotional bollocks. Fair?

If you want gore, humour, cheesy one-liners and lots and lots of zombie-killing, it’s the show for you.

Z Nation is a bit like that too, imagine the Walking Dead with a sense of humour.

Buchanan's 'Animals with Cameras' on Beeb1 better than overdramatised blue planet-2 for wildlife footage, for me.
Last night's giant devil-rays (azores), dump-feeding bears (turkey) and dogs v. wolves (france) was fantastic.
