What have you watched on TV?

I got half way through.

When it comes to musical comedy I am a Conchords and Tenacious D man.

Oh same, but this was very well done.

Chernobyl. Absolutely incredible TV

Just started that last night. Top work, and I love the fact that the characters haven't adopted a dodgy comedy Russian accent and seem to be talking in broad "UK northern".

Finished Lucifer S4. Loved it.

Oh Black Summer was pish. Just started Chambers which is OK so far.

Looking forward to 63 up tonight and the next couple of nights. I love this meet up every 7 years, absolutely fascinating.

Ha.I remember nearly coming to blows when I wanted to watch an episode while staying ar residential accomodation at the IOE,UL back in the early 90's.To say I was less than impressed by a bunch of kids training to be teachers who wanted to watch Neighbours instead is an understatement.

Up to Ep3 of Chernobyl. Just stunning TV in every way.

Chambers was rubbish and bailed out mid episode 2. What we do in the shadows is excellent however. Bat!

Thoroughly enjoyed 63 up last night.Also on tonight+tomorrow on ITV.

Finished Lucifer S4. Loved it.

That's my plan for next week. Loved season 1-3 and was gutted when they got dropped, so glad that Netflix picked it up.

Sticking with Years & Years despite that fact it's gone a bit soapy. The ending of last nights was pretty decent however.

Netflix have spent some serious cash on it. More effects and better stories.

Wasn't it. I think what worried me most were the figures they gave at the end.

Estimated deaths 4000 - 90,000.

Official Soviet death toll to this day - 31.

Scarey stuff.

The finale of The Virtues below.... Whilst no doubt the acting from all was immense and powerful....

  Spoiler:  

I felt the ending was very contrived, what with Dinah and Joseph both having their revenge at the same time and Dinah's brother fortunately going missing at that very moment.

What we do in the shadows.

Made it half way through the pilot episode.

Looks very poor.

definitely. someone talked about nuclear fission and power being like playing god... on one hand it's the perfect source for electricity, on the other hand it's the most devastating power you can imagine. both acute and long term radiation sickness seems cruel in nature.

[SPOILER="mild spoiler"]when Boris said about his illness and how the latency period meant he didn't believe he was sick and therefore wasted that year was very sad and impactful[/SPOILER]

this is great for those who've seen the show...

Before Chernobyl (the show) I was an advocate of nuclear power stations. Not any more!
