Not in the US. People in the US don't get to see it unless they pay an extra $6 a month just for that (and a few other crappy CBS shows no one wants to watch) We get The Orville on Hulu though.
Fs, Just finishing watched the The Killing Danish version 1st season. Up to about episode 17 i had given it a 10/10. Loads of twists, lots of family heart ache and investigation and something that kept me on the edge of the seat. The ending and the finishing of it was so so poor. Drops it right down to about 7.5/10. Great ride but such a **** finish, very reminiscent of the liverpool season 2013/14
Just seen the first episode of the Vietnam War by Ken Burns, the guy who did the epic and seminal series on the US Civil War. I won't do a spoiler, as I haven't seen how it ends yet.... It's on BBC 4, but I downloaded the whole series of Pirate Bay and I'll watch it on nights this week. Seems excellent so far. Really enjoyed Ozark -yes, it's BB light, but that doesn't make it bad.
That's how I felt too. Wasn't quite as artistic, wasn't quite as brave with some of the plotlines, but it is grittier and darker more consistently. Disappointed Marty didn't bang the woman from the blue cat. Found out Ozark wasn't filmed in the Ozarks it was filmed in Georgia. I've been to that lake.
Looks beautiful. My niece has spent all summer after her first year exams at uni criss-crossing the States. Envy them. Seems wasted on the Yanks though...
There are some nice parts in the US. The problem with the US though is you can drive for hundreds of miles and everything looks the same. The ecosystem stays the same for hundreds of miles. Anywhere west of me it's red clay for 1000 miles. (Where I am is a little different, used to be the sea bed so it's sand and pine trees). The same trees, the same animals almost everywhere. Every city looks about the same, has the same stores, and those stores have the same architecture as each other. Every town hall looks about the same. Every state capitol building looks about the same. There's not even much variation in statues and art. Sure... Nice when you get lakes, mountains and undeveloped bits. I love being on lakes and rivers surrounded by hills and hardwood forests. The entire Eastern half of the country though is a bland monoculture where everything is the same. It's not like Britain where Liverpool might have an overall Georgian and neoclassical flavour but Chester is very much Tudor feeling and every city looks and feels different. In the US almost every city feels and looks the same... At least on the east coast.
Watching King Arthur. If it didn't have the cast list and budget it actually wouldn't be as bad as made out. Blending Robin Hood with Arthur...fair enough.. The overreaction to Beckham's lines is k7st silly. Irs no better or worse than any other talkie extra. But Guy Ritchie....is Britain's Tarrantino...needs an editor strong enough to punch that ego in the face.
But it's basically A Knights Tale without the quirkyness and charm.... which isn't great since that's what it tried for.
So I had a word with myself before this one and repeated in my head a number of times "it doesn't matter that Affleck is Batman". I then watched the extended version of Batman Vs Superman. Still nothing special but not as bad as the first time around. 6.5/10
@DirtyFrank started watching GLOW and I like it. Watched the first two, it's funny but has a bit of a dark edge to it.
