I was just going to say that I enjoyed Norsemen. Meant to find this thread and say it. Now see others beat me to it.
But then again it was a recommended series in the Guardian G2 last week so probably has a few new watchers anyway.

I assume there's a 2nd season coming at some point.

& has the bald head baddy been in other things,, think I recognise him but not sure.

He was in Lilly hammer and 1 ep of Ripper Street.

I recognised the ineffectual leader as the international sex-pest drug trafficker from recent BBC3 teen thriller Clique, and as the boss of the company who have bought Perfect Curve (FUN) in the brand new series of W1A.

I got halfway through American Vandal last night. I've got to finish this and will not be able to sleep until I know... who did the dicks?!

Cannot figure out what I think of Neo Yokio after a couple of eps. Such a jarring meshing of references

licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Friday, 29 September 2017 21:07 (six years ago) link

Only just figured out it’s New Yorkio or whatever. Is it interesting? What Is it?

It's the second, fourth, fifth, and sixth search result for "'wes anderson' anime"

American Vandal is brilliantly constructed and the payoff with the lead is really well done.

Mr. Kraz reminds me of so many teachers I’ve worked with / detested. The moment he storms off the stage during the teacher of the year award is A+++

rb (soda), Monday, 2 October 2017 02:47 (six years ago) link

really impressed with American Vandal

Week of Wonders (Ross), Tuesday, 3 October 2017 03:44 (six years ago) link

the cast of Big Mouth:

john mulaney, nick kroll, jenny slate, jason mantzoukas, maya rudolph, fred armisen, jordan peele

I watched the first three episodes and enjoyed it. I like it a lot, but the characters seem to be drawn a lot younger than I think they should look, if that makes sense? Like, they look like they're just a step above Rugrats, but they're all going through puberty. Odd disconnect. But it's funny and unexpectedly sweet.

trishyb, Tuesday, 3 October 2017 07:22 (six years ago) link

i told my 14 year old that i finally found the PERFECT show that he would never want to watch with his parents. Big Mouth. i cringed just watching one episode by myself.

"sorry, whose voice am i hearing now?"

"i'm peter, the documentarian"

"okay. the.. what?"

"peter. i'm making a documentary about the case. you know, kind of like serial?"

"yeah, that's a... that's a terrible idea."

irl lols

mh, Tuesday, 3 October 2017 23:48 (six years ago) link

I lol’d at that too! Perfect lawyer thing to say.

DJI, Tuesday, 3 October 2017 23:54 (six years ago) link

I mentioned Big Mouth on the 10 TV shows yr watching thread and no one took me up on it, I figured it'd gone under the radar! They break the 4th wall a few times during the season re it being weird to watch kids + penises and vajays.

That sounds sordid... I thought the show was deftly and sweetly handled, even with the filth. I'd say more but dont wanna spoiler it.

If you are looking for a sexy Euro romp, you have to see the movie Raw. So much fun.

scott seward, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 17:26 (six years ago) link

Schitt's Creek continues to be just delightful.

this thread needs more repping for Marco Polo

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:04 (six years ago) link

is it good? I saw it and was curious and then forgot to check it out

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:16 (six years ago) link

also: if you like cold brooding detective-ing, check out Shetland. I'm hooked. it's SO good.

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:17 (six years ago) link

i just heard about that via an article somewhere, something about the best crime shows from each country. at least the ones available to stream.

oh yeah this article:

nomar, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:22 (six years ago) link

that reminds me, has anyone watched suburra? i've heard some good things

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:37 (six years ago) link

ian was digging it. i'm probably going to read the book and watch the film first before i jump into the series.

nomar, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:38 (six years ago) link

i was wondering about suburra as well

gbx, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 19:33 (six years ago) link

this review of ep 2 made me think i need to get on board

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 October 2017 19:35 (six years ago) link

the preview looked like extremely my shit

gbx, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 19:39 (six years ago) link

this is over on amazon prime, but my wife and i have been enjoying the Kettering Incident, some good x-files in tasmania vibes...

tylerw, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 19:48 (six years ago) link

My 6 month free netflix deal is just about to end. So i need to work out if I can keep it or give it up.
Just getting so used to having it around.

Stevolende, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 19:56 (six years ago) link

Suburra looks excellent, also I'm buzzing for S3 of Gomorrah that is coming soon.

calzino, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 20:01 (six years ago) link

I think I liked the Kettering Incident but got kind of irritated by a relatively slow pace followed by "whoops here's the exposition" in the last couple episodes

mh, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 20:24 (six years ago) link

ketting incident is good!! final ep is odd but i loved all of it

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 11 October 2017 20:32 (six years ago) link

that actress is so tall!

tylerw, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 21:34 (six years ago) link

Confession Tapes is good

Elizabeth Debicki, definitely tall for sure

Cube, Cube 2, and Cube Zero! My prayers have been answered. I was just thinking a WEEK ago how i wished they were on Netflix. I never tire of them. Wish there was a Cube t.v. show. That was on every day. Forever.

scott seward, Friday, 13 October 2017 18:11 (six years ago) link

sleepingbag, Saturday, 14 October 2017 22:16 (six years ago) link

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 14 October 2017 22:41 (six years ago) link

nomar, Sunday, 15 October 2017 04:50 (six years ago) link

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 15 October 2017 05:44 (six years ago) link
