I'm not a big fan of Taskmaster, but I am a big fan of Greg Davies for other stuff he's done.

One special show I've been watching now on dvd is classic Poirot



This show is fantastic and has held the test of time 100%...watching season 1 now.

Edit:
Holy mustache that was a big picture!

David Suchet* is great as Poirot, I can't believe it's over 30 years old and it ran for 24 years!!



* I had to check which Suchet it was because his brother (John) is an ITV news reader

Been watching/catching up on quite a few shows during this self-isolation period that have been recommended to me in the last few months. Started with Season 1 and 2 of Mr Inbetween, an Australian black comedy crime drama which follows the escapades of a deadpan Standover/Hit man who leads two very different lives. Absolutely loved this series, it’s very funny and quite confronting. I think it’s available on FX in the US but not sure where elsewhere for the rest of the world but check it  out if you can.

Also watched the 3 part doco on Netflix called Don’t F**k with Cats: Hunting an Internet Killer Won’t give too much away accept to say it was a riveting watch and highly recommend.

The other one I’ve started watching is Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness which is also on Netflix. A true crime documentary series about a conservationists that runs a big cat rescue sanctuary and her war on Big Cat collectors and their private roadside zoo’s in the US. It’s a very strange watch with a lot of strange characters. Started out ok but have become bored of it after 3 episodes and not sure if it’s gonna hold my interest for much longer despite a lot of people raving about it.

Watched the first episode of The Mandelorian, enjoyable enough, but I don't want judge off the back of a single episode. Hopefully, if I stick to watching them at late at night the internet can cope!!

Here’s a little review I came across on YouTube regarding Mr Inbetween

Seriously if you can track it down give it a go.

Wife mentioned yesterday that when our satellite contract comes up for renewal that we should just cancel it. We're really not using it at all anymore, pretty much all-streaming here, even network channels by way of Hulu.

I rang up last week to downgrade/cut cost, even ditch my pay tv all together. I’m not under any contract so could do what I liked with it. The primary reason I have subscription tv it is for sport and seeing their is no world sport on at the moment I thought I’d temporarily cut that first. Anyhow I told the subscription operator that I was out of work and struggling to make ends meet and that I was thinking of ditching it altogether.  I also have 2 boxes, one in the lounge and one in the bedroom which gets the most use.

Anyhow by the end of the call, I ended up slashing my monthly bill from $103 to $49, losing sport but adding entertainment to go with movies, news and doco’s while keeping both boxes, on top of that I was given 5 new release movie rentals. Seems like someone was desperate to keep me

I've just cancelled my Netflix (probably reinstate it in due course), because I'm watching Disney+ when I watch something on streaming. There is stuff to watch on Netflix I just don't feel an urgent  need to watch it now... the last time I cancelled it I had signed up again within two months because they released a couple of things that looked interesting.

I'm up to episode 4 and I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

We just finished Season One of Picard. Great ending. In fact... (not much of a spoiler, but it's hidden for those that want to go in fresh)

: show

The ending was great, I would have been happy with just about any direction it could have gone in. They really did it well, a very satisfying tribute to friendship.

I was very happy with how the writers for Star Trek are now able to explore more human failings than before. Drug addiction, family breakup, real things like that get into the plot of this series, and it is not afraid to end a story arc without tying a pretty bow on it.

Anyone else started watching The Last Dance? Just finished the first 2 episodes of the 10 part series and really enjoying it. Next 2 episodes come out on the 27th.

Michael Jordan = The GOAT not just of Basketball, but all sports.
