@mariner4life I really enjoyed The Haunting of Hill House but haven't watched the new series yet. From the little I've read it doesn't have the horror of the original.

Watching The Haunting of Hill House
Not really a big horror guy, but it's actually really good. The first episode is creepy. I like the way it's put together, with the two timeframes telling the story. It seems really well developed, and i am looking forward to how it plays out.
Apparently the 2nd (but unrelated) season is even better?
Carla Gugino, what a talent

@Bovidae its next on my watch list after S2 of Umbrella Academy, think I have 2 eps to go.
What appealed to The Hill House was more the atmosphere which gets the hairs on your neck up rather than a big fright or CGI

Finished Ted Lasso
Really good, great watch, plenty of laughs, could easily have been cliched and cheesy but they managed to skirt most of that provide a quality show, with plenty of excellent characters.

@mariner4life I'd say no, Hill is better than Bly.
Bly was a bit boring, Hill had more jumps and a better storyline. -

I really enjoy shows with good characters the most and even though at times this veered into Richard Curtis like cliched characters they did it well and had you cheering and jeering along. By far the best show I've watched this year (by best I mean most enjoyable)

Yeah I loved it also, I reckon they stole the dancing coach bit from Razor 😀👍

Roadkill on BBC is very well acted.
Love Hugh Laurie and almost all his work, but I found the first episode of this series unrealistic, predictable, cliched and very dull.
So pretty much complete opposite. Huh.

Netflix drama about multinational effort to get to Mars. Team is a Pom, Indian, Chinese, Russian lead by Maggie, the boxer from Million Dollar Baby.
High budget shit. Episode two and we're lead to believe NASA is the complete opposite of what you see in Apollo 11...

The late night big breakfast is fucken hilarious as ever.
Great cameo from Kieran Read in the latest episode
Leigh "I've made lots of shit tv in my time, mostly with you,so you should know better. "
I had already stumbled upon Leigh Hart imitating a comedian on Taskmaster so the thought of him twice in one week was too much.
Edit: also catching 5 minutes of Rhys Darby on 7 days probably killed any hope for kiwi comedy
