The other great thing about doing it this way is that at 9.30 I can just watch the whole show and there are no adverts. The whole episode plays out uninterrupted.

For me it was more the elongated despair and abject misery, though they did make sure the squishing and thudding noises from the baseball bat were turned up to the max. Can I just ask how you watch and about any sound system you have? I always wear my headphones when I am watching shows and...

What we have learnt is that two year plans simply don't work. Every season seems like a rebuild. Can't see how you can have a two year plan unless you are retaining the majority of your squad and attempting to build upon it each season, rather than having to keep replacing it.

I just skip it. I watch the programme at 9.30, rather than 9 (my daughter goes to bed at 9.30) and then I simply skip the opening titles every week. I don't mind it that much to be honest. I don't care for it greatly, but then don't for GOT's theme either and I always skip that too. In fact...

Yeah, but this felt different. With GOT that was a shock moment within an episode. Think the problem many had with this was it was one long, drawn out hour of menace and brutality. It was perpetual misery and not just one single shock moment.

Well let's say perceived violence then. :) As the late, great Alfred Hitchcock always said, 'it's what you don't see that scares you.' It was a show full of anguish, despair and petrification. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

I'm sure they get more and more ridiculous. Got an email from my daughter's school last week from the 'Resilience Manager' and today my missus got a booklet from her work signed by the 'Director of HR and Talent Development.' :(

What!!!!! Bit harsh. C**t Huddersfield?

Yep, agree. Negan is a bit comic book baddie, but it has breathed a bit of new life into the old dog. Yeah, on the violence thing, a number of critics have described it as torture porn. I just wonder that after the 6 month break, the producers felt it needed bigger shocks and went full tilt...

This I have to agree on. We finished 8th but it felt like a very poor season due to the momentus slide down the table. It felt so much like failure as we seemed to be destined for top 6 minimum. I can't see how it can be judged as anything other than a failure when we missed out on a play-off...

Made with poof pastry no doubt.

Yep, exactly. I think if they didn't do such dumb things I wouldn't get into the analysis so much. It's when I see massive, baffling flaws that then have me starting to unlock the whole thing. Some things the characters do are unbelievably dumb. We are in the horror film territory of 'there's...

Yeah, get that. I am not expecting anything deep and psychological. I just want it to make sense and then remain fresh. Last season was quite laborious for the most part. Now we have got the killer first episode out if the way, I wonder if it will go that way again. Surely there's only so...

Needs work I think. :)

Cheers STP. :)

Be very happy with a draw. If we can draw our away games and win at home we'll be just fine this season.

Never saw the Wire, so can't comment. I've been comparing it more with Beckett and Chekhov.

I think that sentence is the very crux of the matter. From top to 8th. Although 8th was great, in the grand scheme of things and where we were, it can only be seen as an abject failure. No point going over old ground, but at one stage we were 11 points clear of the team in 7th place. It was a...

They could rename the programme 'Seven different degrees of Shit.' :)

Well yep, even though it is a new baddie it is still the same challenges, the same fight for survival, the same peril. Same shit, different day.
