dylanisabaddog 4,987 Posted October 20, 2023 A friend recommended Yellowstone. Hmmmm. What is it with American actors who mumble into the microphone in an accent that would be difficult to understand in the first place? I gave up in frustration. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,825 Posted October 22, 2023 A French Iraq/Isis War series on BBC4, Dark Hearts, is very watchable. Quite tense and decent characters in it. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary73 160 Posted October 22, 2023 Nordic Noir is my go to. Wisting was very good. Can't cope with low iq/lowest common denominator tv such as Strictly, X Factor, Love Island etc. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary73 160 Posted October 22, 2023 I've never met/heard anyone who actually watched Mrs Brown's Boys. The problem is the people who actually commission this tosh as much as those that watch it. That an the amount of adverts on ITV 3/4 etc and programmes they edit out because of the time they are shown or modern broadcasting standards. Much easier to watch the professionals/sweeney. carry on films via DVD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, first series was excellent. Sean Bean put in a great performance, as we're the rest of the cast. Hers hoping the new one is as good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
