^ I watched 3 quarters of it last night (missed the beginning). Was nice to see him referencing social anxiety. It was nice to see him be so honest about his life now and needing the support of his partner to get through social events.

I’ve been rewatching Dexter. Makes me feel 20 again. Masuka’s filthy laugh never gets old.

^ it was relatable and you could feel his social anxiety as well when he was discussing it how he became tensed up. His body language on the coach and his face and eyes when discussing mental health and alcoholism.

Can't believe Louis didn't even ask who shot Sully.

Ffs when that woman in the street told him "You used to be so slim!"

About four times she said it.

^ And that Rasta guy who told him he thought Top Boy was crap. Bloody charming!

Alias Grace - this is pretty good. It's nice to see quality adaptations of Atwood's fiction.

^^ Yes!!! It's brilliantly written. The thing with the ASDA bag in the first episode had me laughing out loud.

I mainly watch TV on-demand these days (I'm surprised more people don't) and recently got back into video games. That said, I've enjoyed watching and catching up with CH4 programs Screw, Banged Up and some drama they did some months back (The Light in the Hall). All pretty good TV. Hope to catch up with Hunted and the SAS programme next.

Series two of Fargo

This is my third attempt at watching it. Will I remember to continue with it this time?

Fargo is fantastic. Will be watching the latest one in due course.

Currently watching The Sixth Commandment and it is great so far. (Half way through).

^ the first series is excellent. I made the mistake of rewatching it before starting the second series, so i think that's why I couldn't get into it. I've got three episodes left. Leaving a good few years between them seems to have done the trick . It's pretty good.

I love it when a television programme gets wrapped up in a single series.

I started watching this, it's pretty good, weird but funny. You can definitely tell that the writer has experience of mental health problems because of the dark humour

Young, Famous & African on Netflix

I don’t usually watch reality shows as although, they can be addicting, I’m seeing it with this show. They also feel like a waste of time after some time for me.

However I’m being reminded of how complex peoples personalities are and how their actions reflect their life stories watching this reality show.

But then I’m thinking what is putting me off watch more and more reality shows is that they are usually manufactured and not entirely genuine.

24 hours in Police Custody

You wait ages for its return and then three episodes appear at once. They should call in 24 Hours in Police Bustody.

Just finished binge watching Rain Dogs.

Really like Daisy May Cooper and I'd recommend the show.

Mr Bates vs the Post Office.

Really well done I think. Lots of good actors in it, and I really like Toby Jones.

I’ve read a lot about this really troubling story, so it’s interesting to see it dramatised. It’s left me feeling even angrier about the Post Office, the government and our so-called justice system though. It’s utterly terrible how the evil people behind it were able to get away with it, and haven’t actually been brought to justice!
Anyway, enough of the politics - as a drama, I found it much better than I thought - as usually dramas about scandals in business/politics can be really dreary. But it is quite gripping and the characters are well portrayed I think.

Continuing my Daisy May Cooper binge with Am I Being Unreasonable?

Half way through and enjoying it. Lenny Rush is superb, and a natural comedian.

Series two of The Traitors

I never got past episode one of series one, but watched The Australian series and found that addictive.

The new series of The Traitors - it seems like it'll be fine (I've only watched the first two episodes so far) but I feel like the anticipation and awareness of it will mean it just won't be that good. It feels like everyone in it is trying too hard now.

The second US season of it starts soon. One of the contestants is... John Bercow. The last one was half reality television "stars" but because I didn't know any of them it might as well have been a regular person version anyway.
