Just finished watching The Beastie Boys Story. Really good, funny guys and did a lot more for music and the world as a whole than many people would probably realise.
It's them in front of an audience telling the story and it gets quite teary at a point as there's only 2 of them left now. The 3rd and main inspiration died of cancer at 47.
Wholeheartedly recommend.
Watch through credits as well for some great extras and heckling by celebs in the audience.

Watched Chuck a few years back and now re-watching it with the kids. As I knew they would, they love it.
Real easy watching and a show with a lot of heart.

Just finished season 3 of Daredevil on Netflix. If you like your superhero (although he is not super really) stuff then I can recommend this. With the exception of the Electra episodes it is brilliant from start to finish.
The people playing, Daredevil/Mat Murdoch, Wilson Fisk/Kingpin and Karen Page are superb. Obviously John Bernthal as Frank Castle is excellent as is the Punisher spin off series.A shame there will be no more of either of these. Much less cartoon and much more gritty, people driven darker stories.
Still have the last season to finish. Enjoyed it so far although not watched in a while. He's meant to be reprising his role in the MCU I heard.

My 10 year old daughter has started to watch 'The Simpsons' with me on Disney +. Only another 550 episodes to get through!
Just stop after about season 4 and move on to South Park haha
I think you could give it a good 9-10 seasons but defo wouldn't bother with the rest!
The Mr Plough episode was about peak for me.

I love South Park. Hitler Cartman, Policeman Cartman and Thai Hooker Cartman are just the funniest thing ever
It's still good now. Managed to remain topical while the Simpsons fell into repeating the same situations in slightly different ways.

@richard-latimer Aha yes! I really didn't like it
-
Just watched 'Sorry We Missed You'. Jesus is that some depressing s**t. Great film, starts off quite light hearted but you kind of know it's going to be all downhill especially given it's Ken Loach and the whole grim up north vibe.
Recommend highly if that's your bag.

Anyone seen Bad Boys 4 Life yet? Took me a while to get over chunky Martin Lewis was looking now haha!
-
If anyone is thinking about 'Outside the Wire' on Netflix, I'd give it a miss.
I like Anthony Mackie in most things Ive seen him in, so was looking forward to this. He tries to give the film something, really tries, but its just a bad film sadly.
If there are any old school wrasslin fans out there, then check out the 30 for 30 on STAR channel (Disney+) with Ric Flair. Really interesting stuff about his life.

@richard-latimer Film is very good. Has a few plot holes but very good watch.
Seems like a perfect Friday night film to watch with beer and crisps haha!
Perfect
