I enjoyed umbrella academy too. Also on Netflix is a show called perfume. Is foreign but dubbed to English. Pays homage to the book but is its own story. Really enjoyed it and would recommend.Finished the Umbrella Academy last night. It was something. I enjoyed it for the most part, particularly some of the influences / homages to historic works. Clanged a bit in places too though.
Tonight - I'm in a weird mood. Can't seem to maintain attention at all. Literally nothing I want to watch on Netflix. So more s**t mood rather than weird I guess. Therefore I'm going to watch the 2014 Grand Final. Never fails to cheer me up!

Haha that’s interesting. I think TV is in a golden age. More money being spent on more ambitious and varied shows than at any time in history. 15 years ago you wouldn’t have GoT. We are seeing high caliber film actors jumping across to TV because the stuff being made is as good or better and it pays well too. I can’t imagine any other time in my life where shows like stranger things, altered carbon and the expanse would have been attempted. The AO. Sense 8. They just wouldn’t get made. Not all shows are winners but you have so much choice now that you just don’t have to watch s**t shows anymore.Cheers
I watched Ricky Gervais's new outing last night - After Life. Sat down to watch one episode. Binged all 6. I found it to be an extremely humorous and rewarding way of spending an evening. I would almost go so far to say it was one of the best pieces of television I've seen in years, but that's more a commentary on the state of modern television and my own personal tastes. I'm sure there are plenty who hate it. Me? I laughed. I cried. I found it uncomfortably close to home at times. But ultimately a really well done little screenplay. YMMV

Those were the daysSo much cross promotion and filler in the F1 coverage.
What happened to the good old days when some well speaking English chap would take us through how one of their steering wheels worked?
It's worth watching.still need to watch season 1, trying to get through GOT again before the final season starts in a few weeks

Not bad, is it? Can't work out the onion thing, though. Odd name to call someone.Warriors on Cinemax is my favorite new show
Agree last episode was completely shithouse. The scene with tyrian and Jon snow was just terrible and went for too long which was the point where i knew it was on the nose. Oh well still plenty of good viewing.So, after 8 seasons, GOT finishes as an absolute fizzer. That's what you get when Hollywood finishes writing the story.
Imagine you are six years old on christmas morning. You jump up really excited to open your present, and all you get is a new pair of underpants.
THAT is what it felt like watching the last episode.
I find it quite amusing that the actors, so far Harrington, Turner and Hempstead Wright, are reacting to all the criticism of the last episode. What they must understand is that it is not their fault the writers had no imagination and were quite lazy. All the supposed hard work on their side doesn't make up for the lazy, poor quality work from the writers, who seem to just want to get it finished after the work put into episode 3.Agree last episode was completely shithouse.

maybe they don't share your view on the lazy writingI find it quite amusing that the actors, so far Harrington, Turner and Hempstead Wright, are reacting to all the criticism of the last episode.

You are most likely correct in that they don't share my view. But there is no denying that the majority of viewers, from all reports, were disappointed with the final couple of episodes, which clearly indicates that what the writers thought was a fitting climax, actually wasn't.maybe they don't share your view on the lazy writing
they have worked with the writers for almost 10 years, they might have a relationship with them and not like seeing so many people insult them
