It feels sorta 'UK' made for TV to me. Comparable to Line of Duty, Luther.. All kinda watchable, but I really don't get what all the fuss is about. It's a step up from The Bill, but if you compare it to The Wire, The Sopranos, Gomorrah, True Detective... even Ray Donovan etc then its simply world's away.

I think it is a case of "one mans poison". We all have our favourites and our dislikes. Cobra I thought was interesting and thought provoking. Not the best script or acting, but certainly better than Ray Donovan (In my opinion) Tamworthram and Chester40 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Have never been a massive Trekkie and always felt The Next Generation was the dullest of its incarnations, but Picard has a good first episode (Amazon Prime). Set up some interesting ideas. They're doing one episode at a time, so no binging. maxjam and Wolfie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I persevered with it for ages and then it apparently got really good just after I stopped watching. I watched Picard last light & agree with you. I've also just started watching Discovery but Picard seems the more interesting premise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely right with DS9 which was such a ripoff of Babylon 5 (which was first pitched to the team that went on to make DS9). And meandered pointlessly until they suddenly adopted the great series spanning intergalactic conflict story arcs of Babylon 5 and went from zero to hero. Been meaning to check out Discovery.

admira Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I've just finished watching The Virtues on C4 catch up. Four part gritty UK drama that features some incredible acting from Stephen Graham. Highly recommended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discovery isn't great first few episodes but improves, still has that modern OTT action scene crap in it though. Standard yank scenes where it all comes together miraculously and everything pays off stuff. I never really like DS9 that much but loved TNG. Voyager was great and I thought Enterprise was good but not as memorable. Picard seems like it could be good but EP1 seems like purely a set up episode so far.

Angry Ram Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Not TV but really enjoyed Derby Days on YouTube.. Really well done, great insight into some of the world greatest local Derbies. Just watched 900 years of hate about the Lombardy Derby Atalanta v Brescia.. Not all about scraps off the pitch but a great insight into the cultural side.

Just had a peak at the IMDB write up... When a gruesomely staged body is found, propped up on a mountain pass in the Alps close to the German-Austrian border, two detectives are sent to investigate. Sounds like they might have taken a bit of inspiration from True Detective series one I reckon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just say that the opening scenes of Season 2 make me feel slightly better about Hillsborough. It's tough being a teenager. Just on episode 7 of season 1. Definitely not the sort of programme I'd watch with my mum but it deals with some really deep issues. Would recommend it provided you've got a broad mind.
