    Loving the Squid Games reality series.
    Never watched the original show.

    Yes most of the contestants are annoying yanks, but that makes it all the better when they get picked off.
    The games are genius.

    So in light of current events ,I had another go at Fauda..
    Think I ditched one episode in, years ago. No idea why.
    It's exceptional!

    Two series down and it’s sensational.

    Loving squid game the challenge. A few contestants are apparently suing the show, what were they expecting?
    I’m 4 episodes in and can’t recall any activities that could have caused injuries so far. Only 80 odd left so assume the tests get very physical from here on if contestants are suing.

    I've not seen it yet but I read they alleged red light, green light took hours in the cold and they got sore backs and issues relating to hypothermia.

    Suspect they signed quite a lot.of waivers beforehand so don't fancy their chances!!

      Is that so?
    They do very much strike me as the type of people that would sue for anything just because they didn't win.

    BBC iPlayer has a fantastic documentary about Julius Caesars rise to dictatorship. 3 parts.

    Just finished the final season 7 of Billions. Thought it had completely lost its way in S6, but pulled in back brilliantly and the last few episodes were superb. 

    While I will miss it, I really liked how they ended it and apparently there’s rumours there may be a couple of spin offs.

    I can't be the only one that has found Squid Game: the Challenge to be unbearably slow in the latter episodes?

    It has become like watching Big Brother and i'm starting to question the authenticity of the people left given how good they seem to be at acting.

    Just finished season four of Sex Education. Thouroughly enjoyed it. Whoever cast the actors in this got it absolutely spot on. Final
    episode tied up all the lose ends very nicely. 
    8/10

    I’m near the end of season 2. Not one to watch with your parents but really enjoying it, much more than I was expecting. Some great characters and casting

    Thought Series 4 wasn't anywhere near as good as the previous series, but it was still still enjoyable.

    Aimee stole the show this series, and the bits with Adam and his Dad were great.

    Feel like Survivor is warming up nicely.

    Hope it gets a second series - feels like the cast have gone in a bit blind this series whereas a second series they'd have a bit more nous and it would be a bit more schemey.

    I enjoyed it personally and didn't find it slow, although i have binged rather than watch each week if that makes a difference? I have the finale left tonight but other than that over the past week and a half.

    ....I gave up on this early on due to the monotony of Joel Dommett's commentaries which I found irritating. My god that man is over-rated.

    Yeah he's completely the wrong choice as a presenter.

    Yeah exactly much better after the merge when it's individual and there's more nuance to the alliances, the vote etc.

    And every series needs a Chris and Tinuke to get the machinations going in the background

    Chris is good - suspect he's the sort of person I'd find annoying and attention seeking in real life, but he's the main one playing the game and making it interesting.

    Watched the continental on Amazon, from the world of John Wick. Not sure what to make of it. Followed the films with a few killings.

    Didn't realise it out so soon, I assume its a weekly release?
