Paradise PD where have you been all my life?

Better than big mouth which is basically a paedophiles dream. What the f**k were they thinking?

Bit harsh on Big Mouth

That's quite funny at times

So this week I have binge watched Jack Ryan, season 3, like most of these it got very predictable, hope there is no Season 4!!!
Also watched the film United, not really a big fan of Man Utd, but found it a good watch to be honest.
Tonight's watch is Mayflies.

I loved the first two series. Trying to finish Manifest before I watch it.

Just finished Wednesday. Utterly magnificent.

I usually hate reality tv (or most if it) with a passion but has anybody seen 'The Traitors'?

What a show!!

Shouting, backstabbing, crying, missions, banishments, murder, twists, turns!! What an amazing concept!

Would be great to play although I'd probably be murdered on the first night haha!

Superb show!

Not sure how long it'll last (3 series at the most). People will now go in with gameplans. Brilliant TV though, presented superbly by Claudia

Yeah, I already thought...it will be like Big Brother. Maybe 2 good seasons and then you'll get the most over the top pricks ever going in and it will go from being must watch to must avoid TV!

@richard-latimer I loved how it ended, always really hard to wrap up a show they did it well.

My wife and I love a board game (Pandemic, Ticket to Ride and Horrified to name but a few). She bought me The Quacks of Quedlinburg. What a great little game. Watched the How to Play on YouTube and it’s great. We’ve got the expansion packs as well

https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/244521/quacks-quedlinburg

Any other board gamers on here?

Yes! I like the campaign games they make now. Mind you I hardly ever get any to the table...

I own: Gloomhaven - Jaws of the Lion, Tainted Grail and Sleeping Gods

I've got ISS Vanguard on the way sometime next year too.

I prefer party games to out and out board games these days. If they have a board too then fine

This https://www.amazon.co.uk/Game-Fame-hilarious-party-board/dp/B004FBMV5W/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=1C874LBJ26WSZ&keywords=game+for+fame&qid=1672450098&sprefix=game+for+fame%2Caps%2C102&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1&smid=A3B5SBSE448BFX is brilliant!

I would recommend to anyone. So much fun and completely appropriate for kids as well! Whenever I've played it we've all been in stitches at some point during the game!

Never tried Horrified, any good?

Terraforming Mars is excellent. Everdell is a good quick little game. Hive is a great chess alternative. Roll for the Galaxy is pretty good if you can get hold of a copy at a reasonable price. Dominion is always a great card game.

Horrified is brilliant. So playable and the different monsters change it up every time.

Thanks for the additional recommendations

Love board games and party games. Just discovered a number of spinoff cards against games which I'm going to have to try

Generally seems to be a christmas thing though.

Try Muffin Time. Very exploding kittens.

Exploding kittens is a great little game. I had something called big bucket of doom as well but I lost it. That was good. Think it was utilising items in your possession to save you from situations resulting in certain death!
