Just watched the first episode. Was pretty weak. The acting hasn't gotten any better. There are more boobs though!
I noticed extra boobs too. I enjoyed it, good start.

Discovered "Travelers" whilst trawling around on Saturday night and have since plowed through all 12 episodes. Nice bit of sci-fi drama. I see there is a second season due later this year.

Just watched Cocaine Comboys Reloaded documentary. Utterly crazy story of Miami in the 80s.

And yes...Jan Hammer has done the music for it wink
Is it the same film as Cocaine Cowboys, or a new film?

Cocaine Cowboys was great.

Cocaine Cowboys was great.
I think it's the same but they've added some additional stuff in there, it's now 2 1/2 hours long.

Ta. Miami must have been a great place to be a bank manager of negotiable fastidiousness in those days. I'm not sure I'd want to be any closer to the process than that!

just finished watching Lilyhammer. have to say i realy enjoyed it. its basically a mafiosi entering witness protection but decideds to go to lillyhammer in sweden . the man charachter is the same actor and pretty much the same character as Silvio Dante from the sopranos. very quirky and different type of show but i realy liked it. Also BBQ pitmasters is pretty good too.
Don't want to be picky but it's a series about life in Norway. hehe

I loved it and was a bit sad when it ended. A slow burner for sure but great when you get into it. I watched much of it in Norway and around Scandinavia and it's a very good.

Having finished El Chapo i can safely say it is excellent

Apart from the first episode which felt rather cheap it developed into a gripping and brutal series, not quite Narcos good but not far behind

8/10

Watched Cocaine cowboys reloaded. Crazy times! The pilot was clearly the brains behind that enterprise.

Got 1 episode left and agree it's really good. In a way I liked it more than Narcos as I didn't know the outcome so was able to enjoy how the story developed. But as you say, I think Narcos just edges it.

Has anyone mentioned '13 reason why' yet?

Other half decided to start watching it and must admit i'm hooked...

'After a teenage girl's perplexing suicide, a classmate receives a series of tapes that unravel the mystery of her tragic choice'

Bit american teen drama though

We have given it a lot of discussion! I'd guess 70% loved it, 30% thought it was rubbish.

Precisely 0% thought "s'ok, w'evs".

Thanks for this, I watched it last night.

I wonder if they will follow it up with a biography of Phil Katz... the PK or PKZIP

I watched 'The Circle' the other day, really enjoyed it. Seems to potentially be not too far away when you look at what Google are doing...

Great cast too - Emma Watson, Tom Hanks, John Boyega.
