17 bowls of noodles he ate for that scene

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
Came late to the Ted Lasso party but it’s a great programme. Lovely is probably the best word to describe it iit an un-ironic way.
Nothing like Detectorists but a very similar feel. Deffo recommended.

Yes I'd agree it's kind of in the Detectorists vein....not as good because that is superlative...but it's got a similar gentle feel to it.

If I recall correctly, S1 has a few "behind the scenes" snippets - how M Night Shymalan came up with some of the concepts (including filming in certain areas). I think S2 + S3 go a little into left field crazy (especially season 3), but it's a train wreck you want to keep watching at that point.
Really? Damn. No wonder why my mother was like "want to go for Asian for dinner?" when we saw that episode on Saturday (we didn't end up going, nor did we watch the next episode... she gave up on the series already, so I'm going to have to watch it alone). Although... my mother did say the scene felt like the noodles went on forever...

Managed to get through a whole six episodes of the first series of Slow Horses in the space of a week. Enjoyed it very much. Oldman is clearly relishing the role and the other actors in it are fantastic too.
Dunno when I’ll get round to watching S2 but will do soon hopefully

Another vote for Slow Horses S2.
I enjoyed 1 and am enjoying 2 even more.
Gary Oldman really is marvellous.

I'd pay money just to have the verbal sparring between him and, well, everyone, but particularly Kristen Scott-Thomas
Fucking great show. Even the slightly ridiculous bits work

We binged all 6 episodes of S2 in two nights. If I wasn't old and tired I would have done it in one. Can't recommend it enough

I've just discovered this and binged season 1, wasn't too sure at first but it definitely gets better and s1e10 'Quarantine' was really good. Onto season 2 now.Two thirds into S1 of Mythic Quest, and it’s getting really good. First few episodes were perfectly watchable, mind, if not necessarily justifying the high praise I’d heard about the series from others. But it keeps improving and growing on you, just like the likes of Community or The US Office does
I finished this last night and thought it was excellent. The performances from the two leads were great.
Thanks for the heads up.

Just watched the first episode of Mythic Quest. Funny stuff, great to see Abed again, but also great to see a solid diverse cast with a good script about something very now.

Personally I've found little on Apple that isn't worth watching, I thought Severance was super TV. Slow Horses and For All Mankind were excellent and now I'm really enjoying M. Night Shyamalan's Servant.Finished Severance. That last episode really brings the whole series to a head in a fantastically brilliant way doesn’t it?

To be fair they’re building up their catalogue like all other streaming services did during their early stages, and you would expect them to have far more worthy offerings over time. I remember when Amazon Prime first launched in the UK, their catalogue was indescribably shit, with only one or two decent marquee series available, and the rest of their library ranging from the bad to the truly atrocious.

Shrinking. A new drama-comedy about a psychiatrist whose state of mind and personal life are as messed up as his clients’. By the creators of Ted Lasso and featuring Jason Segel and Harrison Ford. Who apparently does offbeat comedy now.
Two episodes in and whilst fairly formulaic, it’s easy watching and passable enough. 6.5/10 I’d say.

I’m currently trying Dear Edward. Only seen the first episode, which it seems is setting the series. Could go anywhere from here I suppose, I just hope it’s nothing like Lost.
