 Re: The TV Thread.
I gave up on Walking Dead 3-4 episodes into series 4. I got as far as them discovering someone was feeding the zombies. It wasn't intentional, I just Sky+ a load and then didn't get around to watching them, how is it from then onwards Spiny?

 Re: The TV Thread.
Tried Fear The Walking Dead the other day. Got half way through the second episode, and despite it having Cliff Curtis in it (Uncle Bully from Once Were Warriors), decided I didn't give a fuck about any of the characters and hoped the zombies would eat the fucking lot.
Watched first episode of season 4 of Banshee last night. It has the usual over the top ultra-violence, a few boobies, and a bit of a plot twist which has seen a major character dead.
Also saw the first part of a doco series about Generation X, narrated by Christian Slater. It went on about the movie "Reality Bites" a bit too much, and is full of sweeping generalizations, but it was quite entertaining.

You could quite happily ignore most of Season 5 (watch the resolution of the Terminus story and skip on a bit), but Season 6 was a huge improvement. Only the last ten seconds of the finale was disappointing. Everything is basically moving a lot quicker now, and the new big bad has just been unveiled. Season 1 of Fear the Walking Dead was utter shit. I'll probably give it a second chance next week, although I really won't be expecting much. Know what else is shit? Damien. What a load of absolute bollocks. Think I'll skip the next few and just watch the final couple. 11.22.63 was very good. For once, the final episode was actually the best one of the series. Definitely worth the wait.

 Re: The TV Thread.
Damien can officially fuck off now. After wasting an entire episode last week, they actually had the balls to pull the old "ooh, it was just a dream" shit this week. This show has literally nothing to say, yet it's taking ten weeks to say it.

 Re: The TV Thread.
It's pretty good. A bit slow, disappears up its own arse too many times, and isn't anywhere near as clever as it clearly thinks it is, but it's still worth a watch.

 Re: The TV Thread.
Cheers. No rush then, I'll clear the decks a bit before checking it out. 10 episodes, so not too much to get through.

Not even a smirk was raised.
His comedy seems almost self-parodying at this stage.
The whole attacking Islam roundabout routine just didn't work at all. Not once. It was funny as fuck. He's definitely a love him or hate him comedian. Stewart Lee is an unfunny 2 bob cunt, and i have no idea how he has got more than one episode of his shit series on the tv let alone more than one series.

 Re: The TV Thread.
First three episodes of season 6 of Archer watched. The quality just gets better and better. They have found the formula and are riding it beautifully.

 Re: The TV Thread.
I stopped Archer after season 5 turned out to be awful.
Much like Futurama after it returned.

 Re: The TV Thread.
Just seen Game of Thrones. A couple of surprises, but a bit of violence and nudity, so it's all good.

 Re: The TV Thread.
Going to watch that tonight. I'm not a rabid Throner or anything (in fact, with the exception of one or two episodes, last season was a load of old shit), but it always keeps me watching.

 Re: The TV Thread.
I wasn't too bothered about it returning, TBH. This new episode was a big bunch of 'meh', too.

 Re: The TV Thread.
New episode was alright, some canny bits. But I had no idea what Danerys and the Dolthraki were going on about as the subtitles were in Greek.
