I am really trying to concentrate on Devil In Ohio
On paper, it looks like it should be right up my street.
It just seems like I've seen too many things like it at this point so it seems quite unremarkable and I am having trouble paying attention to it, maybe I am just tired though.

That mcafee doc, running with the devil. It’s kinda ok. He was off his face much of the time it would appear

I looked at that today and I was interested when I thought it was a film.
I just felt I couldn't face 8 hours of drawn out saga that really could have been told in 2.

Yeah I think if you want something to binge watch over a couple of days and are in the mood for it, it's decent enough, just a bit - generic modern gothic - if that is the appropriate term. If you're not expecting oh wow groundbreaking stuff and have a few hours to fill and like that sort of thing (I usually do and will give it another go when I feel less tired and more able to concentrate) then it's probably a decent enough time filler.

I quite liked Hotrod. It was a cut above the usual SNL skits sown together with a 'plot' comedy. The joyful daftness and willingness to just go off on a 'cool beans' moment. Reminded me of the Marx Brothers.
This was the best bit of the whole movie

It’s not as bad as I thought it’d be. Not bad in the first place, to be fair, but not mind blowing either. Intriguing if slightly formulaic themes. The main drag for me four episodes in is that the pace is a bit slow. But on the other hand this is a miniseries, so I guess shit will have to get real at some point.
6/10 at the halfway mark because we’re giving it the benefit of the doubt for the second half of the series.

I've just watched a new British thriller called "I Came By". It was surprisingly decent.

I think I am just struggling to concentrate the last few days due to being tired, I'll give it another go when I feel more like normal.

Cool, I trust your judgement as we seem to have similar tastes in TV. Am fully prepared to give it another go when I can concentrate.

Nah, don’t bother. Not completely shit but extremely predictable and very underwhelming.

That wasn't bad at all.. Flawed, but perfectly good for a Wednesday evening. George Mackay was much better in this than in Munich.

WATCH OUT, GEORGE, HE'S GOT A SCREWDRIVER!
The one-minded manicness of the character he played here is a better fit for Mackay and his trademark three day constipation face, certainly

We are watching Bee and Puppycat.
It's a remake of the shorter form originals (that were never really completed). Some bits seem worse, some 'maybe better'? but they have basically started the whole thing from scratch.
The voice acting in some places is terrible, but I wonder if it is supposed to be like that to mimic the terrible US dubs of original Japanese animation.
It's good enough, but doesn't feel anywhere near as snappy as the original. I wonder if it is still on you tube now Netflix has bought it.

I enjoyed seeing Lord Crawley being a baddie. I thought he did it quite well.
I also remarked to myself about how I probably first Kelly McDonald playing a schoolgirl in Trainspotting and now she's playing someone's mum. Made me feel all of my years that did...

If anyone is after a distraction from the news....watched the first episode of a six hour documentary series on Pizza. Loved the first episode.....well worth a punt! Each story is pretty fascinating!

I'm enjoying South of the River, a 3 part docuseries following aspirant young footballers who see football as a way out of lives blighted with poverty and violence. I don't have any interest in football but I am interested in young people and it is set in my endz.
I watched in an attempt to distract myself from the stresses of real life and I can confirm it was rubbish.

Excellent performances all round but I didn't have a clue what was going on for the first half

I did notice. I suggested to my wife that we watch it for old times sake, and she asked me why I hated her so much.
I think I would be willing to watch edited highlights of the comedy science wrongness and general insane wrongness.
I do also own the DVD.

Excellent film that.
Check out his other ones.
The Lobster is great and equally weird. Possibly weirder!
