Hello - I was directed here by the HTJI (movie) wire. Anyone got views on J.J.Abrams' "Alias"? Critics seem to have loved it. I'm 19 episodes in - near the end of Season 1 - and I swear it's making me stupider. Thoughts? |

I never watched it but Mrs Nellers loved it. I'm not sure if that's a recommendation or not to be honest. I mentioned Slow Horses on HTJI the other day. Just binged Season 3 and was pleased to see that there's a 4th on the way. IT's kinda cliche-ridden spy stuff but it's well done and I'm really enjoying it. Also has anyone taken the time to watch "Monarch: Legacy of Monsters" on Apple? It's a spin-off from the recent Godzilla/Kong monsterverse movies and it was big dumb fun. I particularly enjoyed that Kurt Russell was cast as the present day version of his character and his son Wyatt played the 1950s-60s version when the story required it. I thought that worked really well. Also also (because I'd forgotten this thread existed and I'm doing a bit of a brain dump) who's seen the Netflix trailer for Three Body Problem? Any thoughts? Have you read it? If you have does that make the series more or less appealing? I've just finished the book having been inspired to get round to it by the trailer and I'm really excited about the show. |

While we’re brain dumping, courtesy of McG I’m having another go at 30 Rock. It’s very clever, very quotable, but I’m not sure it’s my kind of thing.

Never seen 30 rock. Is that the "Fake Saturday Night Live" show?

One of them, yes - the other being Aaron Sorkin’s wonderful but short lived Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip.

Ooo 3 body problems looks interesting. Currently being quietly obsessed by the older German series Dark. Anyone watched that/is fan/hater? It started off like a German Stranger things, but has gone into a different territory, that's wholly its own. Not totally far removed from Amazon's Tales from the loop. |

(Donnie Darko is probably another reasonable reference point).
