I am Ram Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 18 hours ago, Bob The Badger said: Did you watch all the other seasons of Bosch? I really wasn't arsed about the first one but stuck with it and it got a lot better and became excellent. And what is free view? I saw that, but have never noticed it before on Amazon. Does that mean even people with Prime have to labour through ads? Because I presume you can't fast forward through them like a recording. I did watch the other seasons Bob, i thought they were great too(Connelly/ Bosch book fan). Freevee is exactly as you described it, but it's not like sky, adverts every ten minutes. You get two -30 second ads in each episode, which are roughly 50 minutes long. Also, if you have Netflix, i would recommend the Lincoln Lawyer (Harry's brother).

Tamworthram Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 A bit disappointed with the current series of Inside No 9 so I’ve started watching an old series staring Sean Lock called 15 Storeys High (BBC IPlayer). Probably an acquired taste but I’m quite enjoying it so far. Rev and Anag Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PodgeyRam Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Finished the latest episodes of Stranger Things season 4. Really wasn't prepared for how dark this season was going to be, but after adjusting my expectations following that first episode I loved it. One episode (if you've seen it you can probably guess which one) had me weeping at the end. What a great use of a classic song. The child actors are definitely more like adults now, but I can suspend my disbelief long enough to ignore it. Can't wait for the last two episodes to drop.

As I posted earlier - definitely the darkest of the seasons and all the better for it IMO. Almost finished 'Barry'. Really enjoyed it. Hard to describe accurately, but I suppose I'd go with black comedy. Hit man who takes up acting. Lots of comments on the acting industry and sly digs at the nature of the business but in way that is still slightly reverential about it at the same time.

I guess it didn't get much coverage, and not doubt suffered from being in the era just before social media exploded. A definite cult classic, with some epsiodes bordering on the genius Tamworthram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book is probably 15 or more years old, so this has been woked up a bit for modern times. Cisco(beardman), is supposed to be a 6'7 menacing ex hells angel. My first thoughts were, that isn't Cisco, not tall or scary. Stive Pesley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
