Not a the series but a programme on a Netflix : abducted in plain sight !
Anyone watched it ? Absolutely crazy crazy stuff, you could even dream it up.
Watching a three parter on America PBS about the Patty Hearst kidnapping - fascinating stuff when you hear from the ex member of the Symbianese liberation army and Steven Weed.
Cheers,
Neil.

True Detective just finished season two...fantastic!
Just finished season one of "Titans". Not normally a fan of the DC hero's but I really enjoyed this. Pretty dark and well made

Louis CK's excellent Horace & Pete just turned up on Prime.
Now that's telly for grown-ups.
Season 2 of "Tin Star" has started off at a cracking pace.

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
Just finished DA Boot on SKY, really enjoyed it well worth a watch.
Just watched the new Das Boot. Very good.

New Das Boot? What was wrong with the old one? ;)
Have been enjoying Outlander, great very well done series (Starz, out on DVD), but mid-season three have just encountered such a nonsensical and unrealistic "ex machina" surprise that had me shaking my head, "Are you KIDDING me?? Really?!"
Cuckoo and Two doors down both funny
I don't know if it's been mentioned before but I've just finished Russian Doll on Netflix.
It's a kind of dark Groundhog Day with mostly unsympathetic characters that you sort of end up liking in spite of their behaviour.
It's quite short in both episode length and number of episodes, so it's not a big time commitment either.
My Favorite Shows:
1. Game of Thrones
2. The Walking Dead
3. The Flash
Not normally my cup of tea but have been enjoying The Umbrella Academy on Netflix recently - half way through the 10 episodes and good fun so far
The latest True Detective was fantastic!
The punisher! God damn he is bad ass and it’s so good!
Shame there will be no more of it.
I'm reading The Umbrella Academy volumes 1 & 2 instead. Quite interesting.
Put on the Acorn original London Kills while forum cruising. Meh. The final episode was so preposterous and predictable that I laughed. I saw the silly contrived cliffhanger ending 15 minutes ahead of schedule. Pass.

Finished watching The Umbrella Academy at the weekend and really enjoyed it.
Titans is also worth watching
Just started watching Two Doors Down, so funny.
I also love Greg Davis, Man Down is really funny (especially the first season!). Watched a few episodes of S1 of Cuckoo and it was unwatchable in my view. The reviews I read said it actually got worse with the cast change....

For anyone who has TPTV - Callan is starting again at 9pm Monday.
Cheers,

Just started watching Nightflyers (syfy/Netflix) sort of first contact + Event Horizon written by Games of Thrones author George R R Martin - looks promising???
I struggled to the end of Tin Star series one, doubt I'll watch 2nd series as it got so far fetched I lost interest.
Started Das Boot. I liked it but not a patch on the original so far.
Second series of 'White Gold' now on iPlayer.
The acting was spot on , i just found the 3 generations hard to follow . The dementia scenes was an eye-opener (i was a little bit ignorant regarding dementia , i thought it was only forgetfulness of memories /people but a friends mother died recently because she forgot how to swallow food ). Not seen Tin star and i don"t think i will bother now anyway. The first True detective was brilliant.
Afterlife on Netflix, balling my eyes out one minute and belly laughing the next. Genius
Another vote for After Life on Netflix. We binge watched all 6 episodes over the weekend.
F1: Drive to Survive
On netflix.... VERY interesting and just shows that F1 really is a mockery... Yes the drivers are brilliant but at the end of the day the team with the most money wins :-(
As a hater of most superhero-y type of shows, I expected to be unimpressed by Umbrella Academy. However, I'm really enjoyed it so far. Men in Black meets Bioshock meets x-men. Quirky, funny and v entertaining. 8/10.
