Youtube tailors what it lines up for you based on your history, so we wouldn't have the same thing line up for us.

Re: Television programmes [2]
I am lacking the energy to see if anyone else has commented already, but I binge watched Star Trek: Picard this week.
I am not sure about it.
I think I enjoyed it in general but not because it was Star Trek. It could have been anything else but just happened to label people and things Star Trek a lot.
Might need some more time to process it... maybe see if there is a season 2 and where it goes.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Haven't see Picard yet, not sure if I really need any more Star Trek.
Hey Figgs, what's your opinion on Detective Montalbano? I'm quite fond of it. The Italians have a finely tuned sense for personal drama.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Montalbano is a big deal here, but I don't really watch Italian dramas because they get too..er..dramatic.
I do watch 'Un passo del cielo' which is set in Alto Adige on the Braies lake, its so beautiful it makes me cry. Its Tolkien taken to the max x 100.

Other than the landscapes it doesn't seem very Tolkien.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Babylon Berlin, 4th Episode. We get the night club back - will this be every second episode? It was brief, but really defines the allure of the whole series.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Ah, end of episode 5. Nice bit of free flowing decadence. Happy sigh.
Thing is, since Cabaret came out and introduced the world to pre-war Berlin, nothing else has touched it. BB is providing very satisfying glimpses.

Re: Television programmes [2]
I don't know about you Halfy, but I think they have almost captured the smells of the era as well.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Yes - one the critiques of cabaret from somebody who was involved in the original creation is that it didn't get across the poverty and desperation of the era. BB is doing a good job with that.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Not really warming up to that.
This however looks fun.
(I just have to figure out how to watch it without buying yet another damn subscription).

Re: Television programmes [2]
Just finished the 6th episode of season 3 of Babylon Berlin. Its fab.
I watched the film The Favourite, the one which got loads of gongs. I found it to be a boring over-rated pile of crap. It was depressing and nasty. avoid.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Last night I watched 'Grayson's Art Club' on Channel 4. It made me very happy.
Also being doing some vicarious cruising with Jane McDonald, I don't like the idea of going on a cruise, but I like her happy and joyous personality. She goes to some spectacular countries.

Re: Television programmes [2]
Just started to watch The Mandalorian yesterday, first 4 episodes done.
It's not revolutionary television by any means but it is quite enjoyable serialised TV and it actually feels like Star Wars!

Re: Television programmes [2]
it would be nice to watch a Star Wars production and feel like you're watching Star Wars. Too many disappointments recently.

Re: Television programmes [2]
No. Not willing on principle to pay the subscription for one show only. I'm expecting it will eventually leak out to more general services.
I suppose I could pay for one month and binge watch.
