I've started S2 of Punisher, just as a filler series, is ok, much of a muchness with S1.
@Nepia I guess having seen DD, I didnt see alot in Punisher that required linking, but I guess if you havent you would notice more?
Also finished Manhunt, with Martin Clunes, whihc is a mini-series based on the true story of the hunt for killer following the murder of a French student Amélie Delagrange at Twickenham green in 2004.
Was a decent watch.
Yeah, there were times when I was wondering if something had been explained in DD. Although at times I wasn't sure if they were slowly building to more revelations as the show went on, but I couldn't really tell. Was the family stuff included/explained? I assume Castle interacted with the pasty girl a lot in DD.
Anyone know if Mindhunter will be back soon?
-
@Nepia Castle did interact with her a bit, but not alot, just she works with DD so thats how that connects.
I cant recall, but I thought the family stuff was in S1 of Punisher...maybe both series merged in my mind, although the story is known anyway?
Am gonna watch a new series called The Widow, cos Kate Beckinsale.

The story is tweaked a bit from the comics. Maybe the info they gave us in The Punisher was all there is? I don't know not seeing DD2.
I don't have the Fern's obsession with Beckinsale so will need to read up on what it's about first.

@Nepia we all have different tastes.
Yeah been so long since i watched the movie version of The punisher, basic premise isnt too different; they killed his family, he gon' kick some arse.
Revenge is the basis of many a movie/series

oops, editing to fix.

Started watching a Netflix documentary series last night called "Losers" about pro sportspeople who lost, and what it did to them.
Episode one was Michael Bentt, who hated boxing, but became a world heavyweight champion before nearly dying at the hands of Herbie Hide.
Episodes are nice and short and look reasonably interesting.

That didn't look half as funny as I expected.

finished this last night. Pretty good little series. Nothing hugely insightful, but it's pretty varied, and i love a sports story.
I watched and learned about curling; dog-sled racing; figure skating; desert ultra-marathons; English soccer; and last night the last episode of the season was Jean van de Velde and the '99 British Open, and how it affected him.

Yeah this is OK. Kind of wished they'd gotten some bigger names though. I mean like guys who missed a vital penalty or someone who kept choking when it mattered the most. Might be difficult to get them to speak. Ian Baker Finch would have been a great addition.

Ian Baker Flinch is the best, and harshest nickname.
Maybe if they get a 2nd season they will go bigger? This was sort of quirkier stories. The curling one was surprisingly compelling.
