One More on the Telly

I didn't find Matt Murdoch layered at all. He always seemed pretty much a straight forward super hero type to me. Nothing wrong with that though.

I think Matt Murdoch is a really good, layered character, and so was the villain of season one, Wilson Fisk. I suppose I also prefer the noir feeling to Daredevil as opposed to the more chirpy, nerdy tone of Flash.

Sounds like you'll enjoy JJ. More noir than Daredevil and focuses more on characters than action.

Peep Show has been tremendous so far this season.

First two episodes a bit hit and miss, I thought, but last night's was an absolute hoot. Loved it.

I thought the first episode was brilliant too. Last nights was definitely the cream of the crop though.

Fargo episodes 5 and 6 were excellent.
Totally drawn into it now.
The standoff at the police station featuring the drunken Karl Weathers was just great

So good.

Love Offerman. I was disappointed that he hadn't been given much to do up until now, but he really compensated for it in that episode. And Bruce Campbell showed up in a cameo as Ronald Reagan! You just want to hug their casting department.

Possibly the best lines uttered in any TV programme this year.

Except for Catastrophe, maybe.

Almost finished the first season of Jessica Jones now, and I think it is brilliant. Feels weird seeing two of the most beautiful persons on the planet in Krysten Ritter and Mike Colter bumping uglies. 🙂

Looking forward to getting started on the second season of Fargo soon.

Anyone tried Beyond the Badlands yet? The fight scenes in it are brilliant.

assuming you mean into the badlands - yep, easily he slickest martial arts choreo ive seen on tv. anyone who's a sucker for martial arts or wuxia kungfu flicks should definitely check it out. been renewed for a second season too.

Thats good news considering the ratings crashed this week without The Walking Deads lead in.

The Man In The High Castle. Not quite sure what to make of it. In equal parts excellent and underwhelming. With a little tweaking it could have been an all-time great season of television. The political thriller aspect of the show was brilliant but other more milquetoast storylines with a lot less going for them kept getting more screen time. I don't mind slow paced television but there was a little too much wheel-spinning going on at times. It's hard to write about this show without spoiling it, if anyone else have finished this show I'd love to hear your takes on it. I feel like I can be swayed pretty easily in eihter direction.

Rex

Stopped midway through episode 2 of Fargo season 2, because I found it a bit confusing how the characters tie together. So Lou Solverson, who seems to be the lead in this season, is supposed to be Molly Solverson's father, and Molly was the lead in season 1. That seem about right? So we actually see Molly as a little girl here.

Klaus

Nothing escapes you, Rex!

Rex

Not anymore it doesn't. 🙂

Oh dear... ?

The finale to The League was really, agressively bad. Poor season overall, shame because its a show I really liked a few years ago.

Ash vs Evil Dead

It's better than I hoped it would be in my wildest dreams. It has everything an old Evil Dead fanboy could ever wish for!
