5 eps into the final season (I think) of Killing Eve, first few eps were pretty ave and was contemplating bailing (too much Eve, not enough Villanelle) but has picked up again, so will see it out.

Fantastic series, fantastic ending.

Stranger Things series 4.
One episode in and pretty good. Really like the way the characters have developed over the series
I've been watching this over the last week and finished Ep 7 tonight. Holy Shit! The Duffer Brothers have certainly upped the horror element of the show, but there are still plenty of references to 1980s pop culture. Everything is slowly coming together with some twists and surprises along the way.

Yep. It's just a little different in tone, a bit darker but with some lighter moments as well.
##spoiler
I really enjoyed the sub-plots like Hopper's rescue and the comic interplay between Joyce & Murray and how that contrasted with the more horror elements of the show.Be interesting to see how it all comes together on the final episodes.

Pistols - 'Based on' the Sex Pistols story, directed by Danny Boyle
I'm very wary of biopics but this seems OK.
Edit: have watched two episodes and really enjoying it
Decent

The Night Manager
Had this on my list for a while and was worth every minute.
Hiddleston vs Laurie with Colman playing the dumpy looking agency wonk with a steel core to perfection.
Throw in some boobies and tense British drama and you're onto a winner.
Recommend.

halfway through Slow Horses, really enjoying it!
Having never read the books and some of the comments here, wasnt sure what to expect, but I like it.

The hype of the show ensured my actual viewing of it couldn't live up to it. It wasn't until after watching it I realised I read the book, but that was years ago so I barely remembered much of it. Le Carre's books are great but a lot of them tend to merge in my memory due to the style.

@Victor-Meldrew Murray is one of my favourite characters. I'm happy to see less of Mike - he's annoying.

Flight Attendant, with kaley Cuoco.
Decent series, although is one of those ones where the main characters pretty much does nothing they should do as they get deeper in the shit.
Finished Slow Horses, really liked it.
Oldman was superb.

The Guardians Of Justice
I get this is a parody.
I get the acting is supposed to be a little OTT, and it is a throwback to 80s culture with a healthy dose of cynicism.But jeez I found it hard to watch at points.
I mainly stuck around for the very interesting use of animation including cartoon style crossed over with 8-bit gaming memories of Double Dragon and others from my youth. That was actually interesting and really original. For that I'd recommend it.
You just need to get past some of the more overdone parts IMHO.

The Midwich Cuckoos - based on John Wyndham's book
Never underestimate the ability of British TV producers to completely fuck up a great story. Dull, tedious & slow tick-box dramatization. 3/10
