Hey peeps,
I've just finished watching a new series called "Killing Eve" and as it was so good i thought i'd put a shout out for any who are stuck for something to watch.
It's well made, good story, good acting and got more than a few chuckles out of me.

Those of you who are UK residents are prolly way ahead of me on this.

Everybody has different tastes, and some have none at all but i think this should appeal to most.

I don't watch a lot of telly, bout an hour a day if at all so when i get time i like to see what's there first and then choose.

There is such a phenomenal amount of crap on the telly just sitting down and zapping round is getting to be just a waste of time.



p.s. i chuckled some more at Ali Wong on netflix.

What's it all about? Killing Eve.

Villanelle is a sociopathic contract killer (with maybe a sense of humour?) and eve is the MI5 officer assigned to find her.

Very informative.
Thanks.

Okay, so seeing as i've started a thread called "Telly stuff" i'll put in some more good stuff (i thought) to watch.

1] Westworld

A recreation park with robots so lifelike that they are indistinguishable from humans, the guests can shoot them, have sex with them, anything they want, then they are deleted, and repaired for the next guests.
But the robots start retaining memories......
(i still remember the film of the same name with Yul Brynner)

2] The Expanse

I read the books before the series started and the series has captured them very well, they pay attention to physics in how space travel is portrayed, if you want to be able to walk around while accelerating then the space ship only accelerates with 1G, if it takes 10 hours to get to maximum velocity then 10 hours before you reach your destination you are going to have to turn the spaceship around (short period of 0 gravity for which they have magnetic boots) and start braking.

The Mars colonisation has now been going on for so long that they have had a war of independance from earth, then there are the people who mine resources and occupy space stations in the asteroid belt (Belters)

The story is set in space but it it as much a detective mystery as sci fi.

3] Into the Badlands

The series is based on a comic story where there is a lot of swordplay and martial arts, the story is there and it is quite a good one but it's mainly all about the fight scenes which are amazingly good for such a comparitively low budget series, just as good if not better than any mega-million hollywod pic.
some of the best fight scenes can bee seen on youtube.
