The reviews for The Sandman look very, very good! Looking forward to getting started on that

It's old now, but I watched the first episode of Criminal UK and thought it was absolutely brilliant. Slightly contrived plot, possibly, but brilliantly put together and acted

Jesus you aren't wrong really good reviews so far!

Loved Criminal UK (third one on way still last I read) the foreign language ones not as good.

Shocked at how under the radar it has gone, really enjoyable.

I've just watched 4 episodes in a row!

It's brilliant👏 .

I’ve been hearing terrible terrible things about the sandman! Like criminally bad altogether, hopefully they are wrong but to be honest even the picture of the main character looks terrible

We watched ' The Good Shepherd' last night.

Really enjoyed it.

It was made in 2006 and I was like 'Ah thats not that long ago' then I realised it will be 20 years old in 4 years time😱

I came into this thread to ask people whether I should watch this as I looked up the cast and it’s big league. I’m tempted to watch it but saw some reviews that it’s a bit disjointed. Weirdly enough It was because I was watching contemporaneous news coverage of the watergate scandal that I looked it up. So it’s good that you liked it.

I finished the last episode and I liked that they focused on one day an episode. I think Fred Durst and the lads get too much blame as they weren’t solely to blame but I do think they didn’t help a crowd that was pissed off.

The giving candles to nearly 200,000 people who’d spent at that point three days getting more and more annoyed and more and more drunk and had by that point pulled down a fence may in hindsight have been at best a poor call.

The pictures of the Petri dishes from the water was horrible.

John Scherr comes across as a colossal dick head who didn’t seem to care once he made his money.
