House of cards pretty good but a bit complicated by loads of stuff going on.

Hmmm, ambiguous at best but....I'll allow it

I'm 5 episodes in and, it's not bad but not great either. The first season was really good, very dark and had a different vibe to the later seasons. Second season was good too. The last couple of seasons, whilst still being above average viewing, hasn't quite hit the spot in quite the same way.

Just finished The AO, thought it was several seasons long....very disappointed it ended so suddenly and sillily. Is that a word?

No. It's "more sillier"

No. It's "more sillier"

I'd have gone for "Stupidly", "Idiotically", or "Disappointingly"

Any would be appropriate

you should compare it to the Bloodline ending if you want to make your blood boil... and decide which ended worse!

Just read they have not renewed Sense8 for a third season, a real shame as that show was such a breath of fresh air.

That is a shame, one of the best shows I've seen in ages.

Yep.

Still, 13 Reasons Why has been renewed so it's not all bad . . .

Netflix is rapidly becoming another provider of a mountain of bland content.

Watched Command & Control last night.

About an incident with a Titan II with a ruptured fuel tank leaking fuel into a silo.

Well worth a punt.

Watched that last night - thought that it was excellent and a real eye opener about how close the US has come to a nuclear catastrophe.

Recommended.

Watching it now. And bullst are alarms going off over a dropped socket rupturing a rocket fuel tank simply by bouncing off the side?! It's not made from 1/16 swag aluminium sheet.........

I wonder what really happened.

The fuel tank was under high pressure and it was a large socket which ricocheted onto the side of it. I'm not sure what they would gain from it being a conspiracy.

I'm really trying to watch War Machine but i just can't.

What's with all the cartoon general husky voice and stupid face pulling?

Does it get better?

[London424]

Just over halfway through American Odessey...quite enjoyable if you can ignore that Anna Friel is supposed to be competent as a special forces soldier.

Not only a half decent show with an interesting story but it actually looked utterly amazing in HD, the colours just pop and some scenes you just want to step into and visit...

And that 911 at the end of the prev season, driving around Iceland...oooohhff

Just finished watching it last night but couldn't believe the penultimate episode!

[E65Ross]

I would like to get back into house of cards....I loved the 1st 2 series but I started the 3rd series when I was unfortunately going through some very bad health issues and never completed it....so would need to start series 3 again....but I can't really remember what happened at the end of series 2!! I think he'd just become president, right?!
