Watched 2 eps of Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel.
Netflix, 4 eps only.
Pretty intriguing so far, hotel is notorious for crimes taking place there, including one of the rapes and murders of The Nightstalker.
I pretty much knew the story, but thought they did bloody well to stretch it out to 4 eps and make it mostly interesting! Was good to see a lot of humble pie being eaten...
They stretched it out with
:::
All those fuck knuckle keyboard cops!
What a cluster fuck group of nonces!
They told the story well, coulda done in 1 ep, but was pretty well done to keep it going for 4.
The bit I was always skeptical of was about her being naked and her clothes in the tank, but when explained the way the cop did, it all made sense, especially when they reveal the lid from the tank was off all along, which was another pivotal part of the story.
:::
ANyone watched Clarice (after SOTL) or For All Mankind (alternative history if the Russians got to the moon frst)

Awesome show, probably top 3 of shows I watched last year.

@bovidae I liked some of the detail in the intro to For All Mankind S2 E1. John Lennon survived the shooting but the Pope didn’t survive his, Prince Charles married Camilla instead of Diana. Polanski was arrested on the Canadian border. Reagan refused to bail out Chrysler. Also President Ted Kennedy couldn’t secure the nomination for his second term because of a sex scandal.

@nepia I assume you also got a message from Apple TV+ that S2 of For All Mankind has started?
Yep got the text, although I'm midway through two other series I'm watching so wont be able to watch it straight away.
-
I'm re-watching Generation Kill, man some of the banter in it is outstanding!!
-
Great starts to both
Bloodlands on BBC 1
Unforgotten Series 4 on ITV
-
watched the first couple of eps of For All Mankind, seems bloody good so far.
Was funny as I had just finished rewatching Generation KIll and Gene was the redneck in GK.
A few of the wives have been in other stuff too.
-
@taniwharugby Series 1 or 2?
-
@taniwharugby S2 is now out, releasing 1 episode per week. It's interesting how they insert real archive footage but change the context. You get Gary Hart talking about Reagan's sabre-rattling (real) but about a completely different incident (invented).
You also see the head of Nasa with an electric car recharging in his parking space after the opening exposition stating that Reagan refused to bail out Chrysler. It makes you wonder what might have been.

Yeah I'm really enjoying it so far. Really good production quality and interesting writing. 4K HDR looks good too.

Behind Her Eyes (Netflix)
Thriller about a couple who move to London and the husband, a Psychiatrist starts an affair with a chick who also befriends his mentally unstable wife.
Was a decent watch, only 6 eps so doesnt drag out too much.
Even though I picked some of the twists, I didnt get the last one until just before it was revealed.
-
@taniwharugby watching tonight!! Funfact for all you U2 fans (don't all rush at once) Bonos daughter is the "wife"
Heard good stuff about it. A bit sexy too?
-
@r-l oh thats who she was, she was in the Luminaries too.
Yeah there is a bit of sexy time in it.

Yeah just finished that too. Bono’s daughter plays batshit pretty well, not surprising with those genes. The Roger Federer lookalike did his best too. Pretty dumb twist at the end didn’t you think @taniwharugby ?
