Just finished season 5 of the Expanse. Superb stuff, they had better release the next one soon!

A lot of people moaned. I thought it was excellent.

Moaned about what?!!! Bit too much Nagata, she is my least fav character, but loved the whole thing. Watched it in 3 days.

Also started watching the limited series on Netflix; 'Reckoning' Its pretty good, lead actor is a bit goofy but its quite good with the suspense and story telling.

@richard-latimer I loved that show, just got the final series left now.

If you like that, have you tried Castle? Similar dynamic without the supernatural element.

Think thats on my list somewhere. I kinda liked the supernatural element in Lucifer, was cool to see 'The' story from the devils pov. Plus as you said its an easy watch

Watching the 4th season of Lucifer. Nice easy watching and I'm a sucker for shows like this.

I can highly recommend 'Dragged across concrete' in Amazon Prime at the moment. Slow paced film and not what you might usually expect. I loved it.

@john-folan interesting may have to look into that one, been playing New Vegas but not really into it yet as just started.

Think I have realised I really like the Outer Space settings compared with ones set on Earth.

Have you played No Man's Sky? That's supposed to be similar and improved loads since it's patchy launch.

No my son has and he loves it. He raves about it.

You are playing the best fallout. Give it a chance.

Game recommendation think it's on Gamepass.

The Outer Worlds

If you like Western RPGs this is great.

Very Fallout. Speaking of. Fallout76 has improved dramatically.

Been catching up on a few standup shows that came out in 2020 recently. Marc Maron End Times on Netflix is pretty good. Probably the pick of the bunch so far.

Patton Oswalt had it's moments as did Pete Davidson. They're both on Netflix too.

Vir Das was an unexpected find as well. Probably up there with Marc Maron thinking about it.

Working my way through.

Jim Jefferies soon. Would love to see that guy live if we ever get a chance to actually live again haha!!

Watched the film of Snowpiercer almost as soon as it was out, little while back now I think, been saving the series until at least two seasons.

Smashed through first 4 episodes of season 5 The Expanse last night

Also watched the film 'Kill the Messenger' with Jeremy Renner at the weekend. Very good.

John Folan

Nice to see I was ahead of the curve with Snowpiercer. Watching that, The Expanse and American Gods. Binging Cobra Kai which is fantastic

@john-folan
Just started watching Snowpiercer, sure i've seen a film based on the same thing
Anyone remember?

Yep it’s called Snowpiercer and has Chris Evans in it.

? Offline

Looks like Snow Piercer is the latest bing watch, saw the film and now on E1S2. Think this is where the two part ways because the plot takes a big turn...cant say, as its a big spoiler..
