    I'm not a video game player and don't like horror films/TVseries (too scary🤣) but quite like Pedro Pascal in Narcos and seeing as so many of you liked the pilot of The Last of Us I'm interested now. Is The Last of Us like The Walking Dead? Is it scary?

    The video game certainly has some jump scares.

    The Warship : Tour of Duty, tonight on BBC2. 

    One of the early characters is a Millwall fan from Essex. Already in the shit for going AWOL. They just can’t help themselves.

    I suspect the young officers on the wine tour were Charlton…
  • History of hip hop on BBC 1... First episode very good

    Anyone else got anymore feed back re The Rig? 

    As said earlier in the thread, I thought it was terrible, but going by other social media, I seem to be in the minority.....
    Somehow managed to stick it out for the 6 episodes, although not sure how, it was utter crap.
  • I watched the first episode of The Last of Us and really enjoyed it. I didn't know it was based on a game until I read it here. 

    Our Flag Means Death on BBC2 is good. Silly pirate tale with lots of Brit actors in. 
  • Episode 2 also very good of TLOU!

    That is quite funny. Based very loosely on real pirates too!
  • Bit late on this one but thoroughly enjoying The Bear on Disney.
    Just to round this point out - this was a great show, really glad I watched it.

    I’m enjoying the fourth season of Babylon Berlin, the story takes a long time to settle but the characters , set n filming are as brilliant as ever.
    SO pleased to hear that you're enjoying Babylon Berlin, @Shrew.

    I've extolled its virtues more than once on here but seemingly no-one else had taken a look...

    We absolutely loved all the series to date.
    Great series,  is series 4 a new one? Can't remember how many I've seen. Will have to revisit it.
  • Last of Us episodes seem to go extremely quick which I always view as a good thing. Yesterdays was excellent, jumpy, edge of your seat stuff. Exactly what you want from a zombie series.

    Anyone watching 1923? The sequel to 1883 and prequel to Yellowstone. I loved 1883 and this sequel is quite good too.
     Just seen a trailer for this!

    Never knew this was in the pipeline. If it's anywhere near as good as 1883 it will be a must watch
    Absolutely loved Yellowstone and have started 1923 but hadn’t heard of 1883. Will start binging that tonight! 
    Just started watching Yellowstone. Does a very good job of portraying what's bad about the US. Good show though.

    Just noticed Fauda series 4 on Netflix. 
    So good I'm gonna rewatch the first 3 series. 
    It's about Israel security services etc.
    Loved the first 3 series. 
  • Everyone Else Burns. New Simon Bird “comedy” on C4. FFS!  That is all.

    Just watched a trailer. If it didn’t have the word comedy in the YouTube title I wouldn’t have guessed in a million years.

    For All Mankind on Apple TV, very good space drama. It's an alternative stroyline for the space race, brilliantly done. 

    For All Mankind — Official First Look Trailer | Apple TV+ - YouTube
  • All time favourites:

    The Sopranos (untouchable for me)
    The Wire
    House of Cards
    Ozark
    Mad Men
    Boardwalk Empire
    Breaking Bad

    Enjoyed Stranger Things.

    Just started watching Severance on Apple and not sure what to make of it but will carry on.

    Enjoyed Wednesday and quite liked Kaleidoscope (both Netflix).

    I liked The Witcher and Last of Us games, so will give them a bash (how long til a God of War series?)


  • Quite nice that the Last of Us is not 100% faithful to the game story.

    I have really enjoyed the beginning of the 2 eps where we have had extra elements of the story added in to show the beginnings/precursor to the outbreak, especially as it gives those of us who have played the game added value -if it was just a clean re-telling of the story from the game we would know all the plot points. Hopefully that continues through the series.

    Obviously the Guardian gave it 4 out of 5. I don't think i've ever agreed with a review in that shit rag.

    Yes, read somewhere about the dead being connected via underground networks of fungus. The game creator was gutted he did not think of that. Enjoyed the last two episodes

    trying to keep this spoiler free... do you mean how the ending of episode 2 comes about? 
  • Shameless plug but my niece is the main character in the latest episode of doctors on bbc. I’ve never watched a single episode before but proud uncle moment.
    OOH ! The one on at lunchtime today ? 

    Well done, young lady ! 
  • On a similar note my youngest Jamie appears on  BBC2 Digging for Britain on Sunday evening. You can watch it on iplayer already. 41 minutes in of Series 10 episode 4. 
  • Anyone watching Physical 100 on Netflix?

    Strangely fascinating in a Squid games sort of way. 

    Looking forward to episode 3
  • I think I played the last of us waaaay back in 2014 and it seems pretty accurate to the game so far but my memory has no doubt tossed details aside 

    Pedro Pascal is a good call but my only criticism is his voice is slightly too high pitched even if he has got the Texan accent perfected 

    To help me refresh me memory, the scene with Tess wasn't the creatures in the game but the cops who she held off rather than the infected I saw that slight difference, I cant recall why the fireflies chose Joel in the game but all those scenes seemed different too

    Joining in with you guys on this. BB one of our favourites. I believe the next series will be the final one, sadly.
