Welcome to Wrexham - quite solid 7/10

Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds buy the Wrexham AFC to bring it back to its former glory. To be honest, those two don't really sell the show, it's the footballers and the staff, incl. the club supporters... and their ups and downs, stories... that make this show (documentary) worth watching.

Been watching the Handmaid's tale on virgin media.

Great start apart from the ads (C4) then got to Episode 3 last Saturday to be told "Well this is embarrassing (cannot connect) try again in a few minutes".

Kept getting this message so gave up and tried Sunday, it worked but I could only watch for the rock bottom price of £2.50 per episode or £20 per series.

and they wonder why people use torrents.

For some reason im still watching Star Trek Discovery. I don't know why, im into series three but finf myself skipping forwards so often to get through all the heart to heart feels moments a single episode lasts about thirty minutes instead of fifty.

Passed me by the first time round but I'm chewing through "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"

Good for a chuckle when you're on a tea break.

Im going to start watching The Power tonight. Its about a world were some strange event gives women the power to kill anyone by projecting an electric shock. Consequently this power reverses the power dynamic between men and women.

I will report back.

[Ribenapigeon]

The Power.

I enjoyed it. It does have some slightly wokish elements but most of the characters are engaging and after episode 1 im intrigued to see how their stories unfold.

[Easy-X]

New season of Black Mirror! Only seen episode 1 so far but definitely up to the standard of previous seasons

Manifest.

Its an intriguing idea, a plane arrives five years after it disappeared but for the passengers and crew no time has past. Shenanigans transpire in thriller conspiracy type form.

Unfortunately the scripting is rubbish and your left wondering is it the acting or the directing or the actual script thats wonky. I dont know why im still watching it ten episodes in.

Very funny.

Watched that three-parter biog on Schwarzenegger.

I struggled with admitting just how much I liked him before, and now I have to struggle with the fact that I like him even more.

Its really energising that he has the self-confidence and drive to say I'm gonna totally change direction and WIN ... and then he goes and does it.
I think like that myself, although not to quite such a successful level

Not sure how I missed that he did the dirty on Maria Schriver, I must have been-not-paying attention back there somewhere - but I suppose its not really a surprise. Anyone who courts that level of fame always thinks they are invincible but the gutter press always gets them in the end.

Still, I definitely liked the series, and somehow he seems to improve with age. Few more years and he will be looking a bit more fragile, but he will still be one of my all-time heroes

Oh yeah! I love The Sopranos
My favourite one is where Chris and Paulie get lost in the snow
I'd watch the whole series again.

Add The Wire and Narcos to that list.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure erm, not so much. I have no idea why this is supposed to be a popular anime but there's a certain "car crash" element in trying to figure out the aesthetic. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba on the other hand is much more straightforward and wholesome.

ive tried to watch the wire a couple of times after hearing people say how good it is.
just couldnt get into the show, a lot of the time i didnt have scoobies what the blacks in the show were saying because of the way they spoke.
