Watched the first episode of Mammoth last week. A PE teacher is frozen in an avalanche in 1979, and revived perfectly preserved in 2024. A bit like Life on Mars in reverse. In essence - it's about a normal bloke with sensible values in a world gone mad.
Loved it. Especially liked the dialogue with the lesbian PE teacher he shares an office with. BBC2.
really enjoyed this series but have lots of questions about the real truth in the storyline.
If you have kids, Renegade Nell is worth a watch. Even for me it was mildly entertaining but my daughter loved it.
Not sure if its been recommended yet, but Dark on Netflix is simply amazing.
Time travel in a small German town, with some really interesting paradoxes / time loops.
Some of the characters are represented by 3 different actors in the different eras and it is creepy how well they were cast.
At one point, I thought, "Aw, that's disappointing. They just put a wig and make up on the actor to make him look older." But it turned out to be an older actor that just looked ridiculously like the younger guy!
Story is great too. Sad it's over...

Four episodes in of Apple TV's 'Sugar' with Colin Farrell.
I'm loving the format.
We finished the series last night. Absolutely loved it. I'm sure there is some artistic license but it's so brutally honest that I suspect a lot is true.
Not heard about this but added. Thanks.
I’ve recently discovered ‘Gone Fishing’ with Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse. I’ve no interest in fishing but it’s such a relaxing and funny programme. It’s the TV equivalent of having a joint.
It’s great, more about their friendship than the fishing.

Just watching the last episode now.
I have enjoyed it, but it's full of flaws, things that make no sense, and I'm one all for suspending disbelief.
Also major characters come and go in the blink of an eye.
I'm guessing some of this is due to condensing a large book into 8 episodes, but sometimes it does seem painfully inconsistent.
One example, in this episode, they're desperate to save weight on a space craft and yet fit a.complex, electric/hydraulic hatch to it when a simple screw down or even welded one would have done just as well...

Breitling Cosmonaute 809 - What's not to like?
One of the things that they do in the series is that some characters from the books are split into multiple characters on the screen. This enables them to have conversations, expository dialogue, things like that?
Also, I think you could probably happily stop the series after ep 5 (with the ship - you know what I mean) and it would work fine - ep 6-8 are from later books (which I've not read).
Agreed, I was a bit skeptical, but I laughed out loud quite a few times.Watched the first episode of Mammoth last week.

Good start.
