The US.
I went to The Office Experience in Chicago, and it spoiled the rest of the series  Dodgy

Finished the new Dexter this morning. Overall it was definitely a redemption on the crap they served as the finale in the original run. There are still bits and pieces I'm not happy about, but I think the acting by Michael C Hall in the final episode is probably the best he's done as Dexter


RE: Armchair Critics - Let's Talk TV - ari101 - 10-01-2022

I thought it was a brilliant series, really liked the departure from bright colourful Miami, it added to a more suspenseful and chilling atmosphere.

Watched the first episode of Gordon Ramsay's new show Next Level Chef. Three kitchens on three floors, the ingredients pass from top to the basement floor who get the leftovers to make a meal with, pretty good

Sounds like someone watched The Platform on Netflix and thought "how can we make a gameshow out of this?" Tongue


RE: Armchair Critics - Let's Talk TV - E.N. - 11-01-2022

I hadn't heard that the next show in the reboot production line was Fresh Prince...


...but this looks interesting. Drama, not comedy




RE: Armchair Critics - Let's Talk TV - nothing - 11-01-2022

Oooh, will defo be checking out Bel-Air. And do love a bit of Ramsey, may look into Next Level Chef too

I just finished Season 3 of After Life. I'm an emotional wreck. What an astounding show. But heartbreaking.

Stay Close ( from the Harlan Coben book ) is good on Netflix


RE: Armchair Critics - Let's Talk TV - ShaneU - 27-01-2022

Arcane on Netflix, brilliant series. Don't usually watch animation but this was something else

I'm a big Downton fan so decided to give The Gilded Age a go.
The first episode was a struggle, but I enjoyed the second much more (though it is still no Downton Abbey).
I like a period dramas, and there are some great cast members, so I'll stick with it for now...




RE: Armchair Critics - Let's Talk TV - TheValeyard - 06-02-2022

Only just started watching Downton. I quite like it actually.

Can't wait for this, there's been very little to look forward to on TV lately.


RE: Armchair Critics - Let's Talk TV - Necro - 28-02-2022

Anyone watched Vikings? Just started it there the other night and enjoying it so far. For any gamers out there the main guy reminds me an awful lot of Sigurd from Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Did anyone else watch Dispatches From Elsewhere?
Couple of years old now, but I've just finished it (it's on Amazon Prime)

Not entirely sure what to make of it. It tried to do something really cool, sometimes landing it and sometimes not quite. It did have a lot of positives overall

But... what I found out googling it, was that it's based on real event!

I've always loved the idea of making something like this, but practically I know it's impossible. Often thought that if anyone was stupid enough to ask me to be a best man I would for their stag do. Such a cool idea, a mysterious, free treasure hunt, hidden in the real world.

Are they the same people who do that weird grocery store place I've seen on Food Theory?

Nope, different crowd I think

Only found out last week that Steven Moffat is writing a TV adaptation of The Time Traveler's Wife

Gosh, I wonder where he got that idea from...? Big Grin

Same! And I only watch it occasionally, used to watch it all the time, not even sure when I stopped. Though I'm practically religious about casualty
