What have you watched on TV?

[Tangled up in Blue]

Complete and utter bollocks, as usual.

On the contrary, I remember seeing him solo in Manchester in the mid-70's and that was a much better show than the Simon & Garfunkel reunion concert at Wembley years later.

paul Simon is a consummate musician.Art Garfunkel only has a voice.

Ah yes, how silly of me. I should have known that Paul Simon solo is better than Simon & Garfunkel due to you seeing him solo in Manchester and thinking he was better than when you saw him with Art Garfunkel in London.

Dont get sucked into the ego vortex as it could waste secounds of your life.

FYI,I have every record S & G ever made (on vinyl and cd) and have been a huge fan of theirs ever since I was a schoolboy.In fact,I can remember poring over the lyrics of A Simple Desultory Philippic with a fellow fan (also on SZ).

We certainly didn't know who Lenny Bruce was (at that time).Nor how you could "smoke" a pint of tea.:smiles:

I watched that last night as well. Shame it didn't feature more of the great man (say, the full hour) and solve the decades long question of who put the ball in the Bury net.

Walking Dead.....christ after a barnstorming start this series has been abysmal. Ok, the Saviours are evil, I get it, can you hammer the point home any more?

Totally agree it's been pretty weak, but they obviously need to build up the other groups for what I assume will be an assault on the saviours.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Started Narcos series two.

Looks like a step up. Looks like Pablo used to get his clothes from Rosehills as well.

Enjoyed 10 Rillington Place last night.Almost as good as Richard Fleicher's dark 1971 film with Dickie Attenborough.

Personally I love the world building stuff, we need more characters to care about. I'm not sure yet how far we'll get with the Negan storyline this season as we're starting to catch up to the comics, which I'm currently re-reading (note this weeks new group are not in the comics).

 

[Rusty Shackleford]

On the 6th of dec THIS IS US starts on your tele boxes,great writing great acting and very different,its the WIRE of 2016.

I thought it was absolute *****.

Enjoyed 10 Rillington Place last night.Almost as good as Richard Fleicher's dark 1971 film with Dickie Attenborough.

Didn't see it but caught a trailer - seemed that Tim Roth based his character on the Attenborough version. Original film is superb with John Hurt giving a master class performance.

Yes, you're right about Tim Roth.Timothy.Evans makes his appearance next week.Be interesting to see if it compares favourably with John Hurt's performance.Don't forget Judy Geeson as Mrs Evans in the original either.She was excellent too.

It was OK. I was left slightly disappointed.

 

[Berrichonne shrimper]

I thought it was absolute *****.

And thats what makes us soooooo different as i think phil collins is a bit of a ****,for me THIS IS US is just so moving and not the normal run of the mill tv.

 

[united we stand]

The Missing - losing interest, it's just too convoluted.
