No spoilers! I’m waiting until I can binge it all on the free trial 😂
Mainly intrigue, complete lack of blood and guts in ep 3! Too much hazy camera work in the brothel!

Having never watched GoT will this make zero sense to me or is it worth a go

I'd give it a go.

It's set about 170 years before GoT I believe, and there are a few bit's of dialogue that refer to the future main "event" that GoT is set in, but apart from that, I'd imagine you should be fine.
It's a lot easier to follow than GoT, as it mainly focuses on one main family/house and the characters that interact with them

Yes, too many kingdoms and realms in the main GOT to understand it straight away. This makes a lot more sense and is set predominantly in just the one realm.

Blackbird is brilliant great acting based on a true story about a serial killer.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic, or are in the it's so bad it's good camp. Or just think it's good

Got a right panning from the critics.

If it's so bad it's good, I might give it a whirl.

To be fair the line 'Bless me father for I have sinned , and I'm about to sin again ' is up there with ' I made him an offer he 'couldn't refuse '

Yeah loved it. It's better now you can binge
I watched the first episode and when it finished I thought "That seemed like the end, not the start?" then checked the episode and it WAS the last episode.. ffs... Not even sure how I did that.. :ROFLMAO:

Now I have to wait a few months to re-watch the correct way and hope I forget what happened. :confused:

Sins of Our Mother on Netflix. Another batshit cult documentary that gets weirder with each episode, but was really interesting

Started Yellowjackets on Sky this week. Not gripped me so will probably give up after two episodes.

Also started Dahmer on Netflix. Nothing new so far if you know his story but very well acted and about as dark as it gets.

I put the Dahmer thing on but just got really bored.

Tried Andor last night. Got a bit distracted so will probably watch again but like the general feel of it. Less “here’s ten people you remember from Star Wars” and feels more like an actual story that happens to be set in the universe.

I've heard it's meant to be really good and a lot more mature and gritty. What the Boba Fett series should have been

Struggling with what to watch tonight and really want something to get into.

Just finished We Own This City - definitely got Wire vibes, which is always a good thing. I also got some Shield vibes (also a good thing), I guess as there’s some similarities between main characters.

Currently watching Brassic - although I’d seen it before I started back on Season 2 and for some reason enjoying it even more this time. Only issue is I’m watching it with my partner so I’m dependent on her being awake!

Really keen for The Old Man but it isn’t on Disney until Wednesday.

Also watching Dave on iPlayer, albeit it’s sort of a background watch. Can’t quite work out if it’s funny or not!

So I’ve a gap to fill tonight as the partner is already asleep!
