The Belters are not all good guys or all bad. The same goes for Earth and Mars. That’s why it’s an interesting show, none of the sides are wholly right or wrong.

Chrisjen is awesome though and I’ll not hear a bad word against her.

I saw episode 2 yesterday — was surprised by how much I have enjoyed it so far, it's much better than I thought it would be.

Not really looking forward to episode 3, going by what's been said on here, but in principle I have no issue with how 2 ended.

I've only watched episode 1 so far and quite enjoyed it, it was amazing but it was a good 90 minutes of entertainment.

Not surprised that at least one of the episodes is not up to scratch though, I don't think Moffat and Gatiss have managed to make a batch of anything where there isn't at least one dud episode in the mix!

Episode 3 was strawberry floating guff. It's such a shame.

Not even the hot girl off Years and Years could save it.

I wrote:DC's Legends of Tomorrow S3 - 7/10

Its cheesy as hell and mostly badly acted (as are the other CW Arrowverse shows) but there's something about it that keeps me watching it (other than Caity Lotz :datass:).

The finale was suitably ridiculous too.


S4 seems to be even more batshit, so far I've seen The actress who plays Amaya return as a different character, Mick's erotic fiction come to life, someone gored by a killer unicorn which subsequently eats their heart, and Zari is now a cat :lol:

Watching that Witcher TV show and I'm 'eh' on it so far. Might give it another few episodes and see if it improves. If it doesn't I'm ditching it.

Just finished S4 of Legends of Tomorrow, that was ... interesting.

Bit gutted that they saved Nate but ended up writing Zari out of existence, she's a far better character and fit as strawberry float. I'm assuming it was a case of the actress quitting the show and having to rewrite the season finale.

The actress is back for S5 but in a different role.

Just like Amaya then.

Titans S2 - a cast of insanely attractive people who unfortunately can't act particularly well. Nowhere near as good as Teen Titans Go / 10

Actually, that isn't fair on Teen Titans Go as it is absolute genius.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - 9

Much better than the recent film. It explains the tangled web and betrayal so much better, partly through being a pretty direct interpretation of the book. While the production is understandably a bit basic the story and performances are superb.

All of Gavin & Stacey

Had seen bits of it before, but just been all the way through it properly and am now fully caught up.

I won't lie to you, I thought it was tidy.

Yep, I enjoyed it a lot. I'm now wondering exactly how wrong am I, in the eyes of GRcade?

Definitely a product of its time. I enjoyed it then but don't think it has aged well after watching a few episodes recently as the wife decided to rewatch it all.

I'm a big Rob Brydon fan and think he carries it. Actually all of the secondary characters are better than the main 4.

I enjoyed the Christmas episode fwiw

The Witcher S1 - 8/10

Not that familiar with the source material but I do like this kind of dark fantasy setting (ASOIAF, the Mistborn books .etc) and I wasn't disappointed.

Though the way nearly everything prior to the last two episodes wasa flashback was a nice touch as it wasn't immediately obvious until you realise Witchers and mages age far slower/don't age

Another thing I really liked was how the mages aren't invincible and can't continuously use magic without literally killing themselves

Also, Yennefer :datass: post magical surgery that is

Titans S2 - 6.5/10

I remember really enjoying the first season of this, but was bored for much of the new season. It's not bad, it's just a bit meh.

I did laugh when Ser Friendzone from GoT showed up as Batman. :lol: I thought he was going to be Alfred when he first appeared on screen.

He's the world's worst Batman, at no point was he even vaguely believable

I think they must have realised that as they avoided actually showing him as Batman. But his Bruce Wayne was atrocious. I did like the dancing though. :lol:
