You managed to make it through one episode? Got half way through the first and gave up.
It's terrible but I made it through the first one. Won't be going back though!
It's sort of like watching a car crash. It would be alright but for the USA/USA/USA stuff.
The kids are loving it but then they like Ninja Warrior UK.

Recently started watching Forensic Files, a show about how forensics has solved all manner of murders in the US. I think it was recorded early 2000's which makes for brilliant viewing. Surprising how many people are murdered by family members for life insurance. Netflix then suggested I watch a 1000 ways to die, mind numbing tv but easy to watch.

Also started watching ignition, which seems to be a spin off from Head2Head. Really quite a good car review show.

I'm looking for a new series to binge on after finishing series 1&2 of Line of Duty. I gave Top Boy a try, but couldn't understand a bloody word they were saying rolleyes I'm tempted to give Peaky Blinders a go, any good?

I too have been dipping into these. It's grim just how long some people get for minor offences.

The certainly don't fk about in the states. Yet they wonder why the have the highest prison population in the world.

Not sure if it's on Netflix, but if you enjoyed Line of Duty, have you tried Happy Valley? Cracking series in my opinion.

It's a shame it's not on Netflix but you should definitely try and source series 3 from somewhere, the best series IMO, and Series 4 is starting soon on the BBC

look at the amount that get released and end up straight back. it does seem they just lock them up and throw away the key, not much rehabilitation done.

Just watched "Be Here Now" the story of actor Andy Whitfield's fight against cancer. Very moving.

Yes it is. I found it very sad because you know his search for hope is futile. Programmes like that are worth watching if only to remind you your problems aren't so bad after all.

I'm currently half way through season 2 of Rake, the Aussie TV series. It the best thing I've watched on Netflix for a while. Thanks to whoever mentioned it earlier in this thread.

Oof, you're not wrong, what a shame. I think these reviews are the first six episodes? Will watch anyway and hope it picks up for the rest of the series.
