I’ve just watched episode 1. It’s ok, and if I’d not seen the original I’d be intrigued. I’ll keep watching, but it doesn’t have the visual style of its forbear, and I’ll have to wait and see with the character portrayals. The soundtrack, while vaguely riffing on the original, is not a patch on it.

Here you go...

Maybe off topic, but while looking for Coherence to add it to my watchlist (even though I’ve a vague idea I’ve already watched it, or something similar...), Amazon Prime also recommended some other movies, including this amazing sounding trash, which I’m tempted to watch just to see how bad it might be...

This started tonight on Sky Atlantic. It stars Jude Law, Emily Watson, Naomi Harris and Paddy Considine and is written by Dennis Kelly. While it’s completely different, it’s giving me a very strong Utopia vibe in its sense of menace and visual style.

This week’s is pretty darned good, the best since the opener IMO.

If it stops clickbait YouTube videos titled "The Boys Season Two Finale Explained" with a big spoliery image, then I'm all for it. Game of Thrones is maybe one of the best examples of how weekly scheduled shows can become event television. Excepting those people who didn't have access to it for some reason, all it's viewers got hit by the big story beats at the same time, or at least within a day or two.

It is on Amazon Prime in the UK, although on one of the channels that you have to pay extra for. You could probably subscribe for a month and binge it before cancelling though.

Each episode takes ages to film due to the amount of corpsing.

I hope they call it "Daryl & Carol (and we're bringing back Coral)".

This looks like it might be fun...

I noticed that too. I even rewound it to see if I’d missed something, but all I saw was what looked like someone running past the window.

Harry's lyrical version of the Emmerdale theme and "Tiny man falls into a cup of cocoa" had me guffawing.

I'd heard a few week's back that this was due to be released this month, but according to IMDB it's been moved back to April 2021 now.
