Seems to be a common theme both here and with a few of my pals. Must admit I don't mind him at all and thought Stay Close was worth a watch. The only actor I an think of that would really turn me off a show is Woody Allen. I can't stand him. Not a great fan of Steve Martin either but I can tolerate him.
We had a similar experience, dropped out of it about 1/3 way through the second episode. Just not engaging enough. In the first ep Sarah Parrish's character is all menacing and threatening, by the second she and the lead are best friends. The mom from inbetweeners is holding well I will say. She must be pushing fifty.
Sounds interestingNot a series but a documentary I watched last night, a very intriguing woman.
The Irish woman who shot Benito Mussolini in the face
Irish woman Violet Gibson attempted to assassinate the Italian fascist leader Benito Mussolini and actually shot him in the face on April 7, 1926.www.irishcentral.com
Missed last night’s 3rd episode; no BBC iPlayer option here so what to do? Synopsis available?
Finished streaming it last night. Like any good tourist, it wandered a bit, but I’d give it 8/10.
Finished Dopesick last night - compelling stuff but came to a stop all of a sudden. Felt like they were making the series with the content they had up to a point, but then the whole thing moved forward and concluded in the interim and they almost made a synopsis of it rather than playing it out.
Michael Keaton was excellent as the doc, and they absolutely nailed it with some of the Sackler characters too, utterly odious, pompous shit heads.. the head of legals fat head was perfectly cast
Not that it hasn't been said before but money and greed cause humans to do the most inexplicable, horrible shit to each other - hard to understand how any of the Sackler family and the numerous people bought along the line could live with themselves knowing what they were responsible for.. but as I said to the missus when she asked how they could sleep at night.. very well, on their 10,000 count egyptian cotton
