21 (Kevin Spacey and some smart kids take on Vegas)

fking terrible, laughable in places but not for the right reasons.

Words 'Spacey' and 'kids'in the same sentence is always scary.

Shooter, anybody?

Why is that then?

Anyway, I didn't think 21 was that bad when I saw it. About 10 years ago.

Good series.

A bit more drawn out than it needed to be but some good performances.
Interesting (or not) fact - the sound fx team actually used the proper sound of each weapon when firing rather than just generic bang bang etc throughout the series.

In case you you've been under a rock for the past 2 years or so, he felt up a 14 year old boy and admitted it, well, didn't deny it.

Difficult to take him seriously now, watching any of his films. I didn't particularly like him anyway, so it's nothing lost for me.

The Two Popes

Far more entertaining than I'd expected, even if it did go a bit easy on Ratzinger.

Recommended though - the two central performances were excellent.

Watched episode 1 of 'You' last night.

Slightly in love with the stalked lady. Worth watching the rest?

Yes, pretty good.

S2 is now out, so make sure you’re starting with S1.

The teenager was 14, and claimed Spacey climbed on top of him drunk and "made a pass". In 1986. Spacey can't remember it, and stated so. It's the internet so I guess you think you can say what you like - but insinuating someone is a paedophile and involved with kids (plural) because you don't like them is pretty dumb.

Agreed, enjoyed You. Just finished S2

[Tiggsy]

S2 of you is great. The last 30 secs are silly and not needed, but can’t think of a show where you go from like/hate/pity/cheer for/fear the same characters within a couple of episodes of each other. 9/10.

I felt like that over S1. Half way through S2 and enjoying it.

I started You yesterday too. Really enjoying it.

[tobinen]

Finally finished all 60 episodes of S2 of La Reina del Sur. I am not going to recommend it but I thought it had its moments and plenty of twists and turns. The star of the show for me was the little girl who played Sofia.

The accuser was Anthony Rapp from Star Trek Discovery.

I've just finished S1 of Riverdale. Initially I wasn't sure what to think. It had a bit of a murder mystery vibe to it, which I liked, but also a bit "American High School"....which I didn't. Think I'll stick with it, I think it's worth a watch, but not something amazing.

Are you watching S1 or S2? Worth watching from S1 to be honest to get a background/make sense.

[singlecoil]

One of the best things about You is that everybody has clear motivation for what they do. Establishing motivation is something that writers often have a problem with, sometimes going so far as to have a crazy person as the antagonist so that they don't have to explain their actions.

There's also the interesting ethical questions that arise from the plot.

Excellent stuff, watched S1 when it came out and have just re-watched it before starting on S2.
