Didn't the lack of CGI and Autistic blue haired non-binary disabled dwarfs leading the charge at Normandy not give it away that it wasn't made this decade?

How I envy you watching BoB for the first time.
And yes,Toggle Spoiler.
Wait for the Channel 4 remake.
I’ve got a code for 12 months of Disney plus for new subscribers only, if anyone wants it?

As in free for 12 months? Yes please if so.
Yeah. Check your PMs

What a hero.
That I am.
Enjoy rewatching Malcolm in the Middle.

Started The Boys, having avoided it due to superheroes
Fucking hell its so good. Had me priper lolling at times.
The first couple of seasons are very good. The last season before this one was absolute binfest.
Where does one download shows these days?
Pirate Proxy. Never fails.
Will take a look. It's been a while.
I’ve got way into the 1982 cartoon series of The Incredible Hulk recently.
Anyone know if there’s a similar series that includes more super heroes, like a classic cartoon version of the avengers or whatever the likes of iron man and spider man call themselves.
Watched some of the Spiderman cartoon from when I was a kid but a) season 1 episode 1 goes straight into spider man fighting the lizard, with zero explanation of why he’s spider man and b) it just seemed to be spider man + baddies.

Into the first couple of episodes of season 3 of the bear and hmm. First one is just a dream episode, second one is just everyone shouting at each other (at least so far). Not great.
A couple of the episodes bored me from this season. John Cena cameo was great though
Presumed Innocent. Tres bien
Nearly finished Six Feet Under and The Sopranos.
Not sure I can watch anything after this combined greatness.
Watch Mr Inbetween if you haven't alreadyNearly finished Six Feet Under and The Sopranos.
Not sure I can watch anything after this combined greatness.
Similar to those?
Dunno, it's just fucking good.
Watched Mr Inbetween after seeing the recommendations in this thread. Good show.
Has anyone managed to watch the movie version? The Magician.
Just started watching The Bear a few days ago, watched this episode last night and drew the same conclusion. No surprise I wasn't alone!
Also agree with whoever said watching TV shouldn't be this stressful.
Season 6 of malcolm in the middle is outstanding.

Started season seven and reckon I’ve laughed at every episode so far, six episodes in. So good. Reese is brilliant.
Apparently it’s coming back too.

Started watching Severance (like the idea but it's quite slow) and Curb your Enthusiasm.
I keep thinking about what probably felt like a throwaway gag at the time, where Reese eats soup, and laughing to myself.Started season seven and reckon I’ve laughed at every episode so far, six episodes in. So good. Reese is brilliant.

It's good, we get it.
Cool fact, I was neighbours with the guy in They Might Be Giants parents-in-laws.
The Inbetweeners is set for a shock return as show star Joe Thomas reveals talks for a reboot are underway and ALL of the main cast are involved.

Slow Horses is back this week apparently. Vamos.
Tomorrow in fact.
Apple TV coaxing more cash out of me.
Terminator Zero is worth a go if you are a fan of the franchise.
Is Slow Horses out weekly? I think that's how Apple normally do it, isn't it?
Anyone watched any of the second series of Sherwood yet?
I turned it off after the second episode. First series was far better
Severance was so slow. Canned it. Started watching Dexter instead because of Michael C Hall. It's pretty fun but no idea how it's got such a high rating.
Stop Dexter after season four. Much better ending that way.
Fair play for making it that far. I lost interest after a dismal first episode.
BBC don't have a great track record when it comes to second seasons.
Just watched an episode of Keeping Up Appearances having stumbled onto BBC4 and left it running in my linear TV existence. Was probably better than 95% of modern made stuff, properly densely, skillfully crafted work.
Yes. We watched One Foot and it was delicious as well. All the oldies are sublime.
Except Del Boy. Fuck that hasn't aged well.
It made me think of One Foot in the Grave, another peculiarly British classic.
Someone is upscaling old comedies to 4K: https://hotkarl.co.uk/
He's done a load of Reeves & Mortimer, the pedogeddon episode of Brass Eye and is now working on Phoenix Nights.
Not keen on how he's handed the 4:3 ratio, and they're still getting to grips with syncing the audio correctly, but it's a nice idea nonetheless.
Also my daughter has introduced me to a sketch show on CBBC called Big Fat Like and it's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Don't let the cover image put you off:

I haven't lolled out loud so much at a TV show for a while. Any other sad dads seen it?
I'm a twit
I haven't, but I showed my son and daughter Dick and Dom playing Bogies a while back and my sense of humour clearly hasn't changed since I was about 14 because it still made me lol.
I hope he makes it through Phoenix Nights before getting deleted from the internet.
Eight grand?!
Binned Dexter and started on Gomorrah and Yellowstone.
Gomorrah is fucking brutal, absolutely nothing like the Sopranos.
Started watching Things You Should Have Done. I can imagine it might start to grate on me after a while, but it is quite funny. People Just Do Nothing / This Country style of daft.

2nd half of the new season of Emily in Paris out soon, ladies.
5 minutes in and Rosie Jones on Taskmaster is so much worse than I thought she’d be. How do people sit through her stand up?
Weirdly she got the loudest applause when they were all introduced.
