TV show thread (2022-?)

You should probably spoiler that.

And yes, I do wonder if the India thing is a ruse, but that would mean Mattson is playing Shiv too, and his assistant is in on it. Which is very possible, but it’s also possible that Mattson is totally full of ■■■■ and a pretender himself, rather than a 4D chess master. But it was all a bit convenient, which is a worry for Ken and Roman.

That extended scene with Shiv and Tom on the balcony was something else. Wow! What a nest of vipers!

Was having similar thoughts. Bit too hard to tell at this point, though.

The narrative will work either way, which is I’m sure exactly what the writers intended.

Love succession!

Everything that Shiv and Tom said to and about each other, was 100% true.

What a scene.

wasnt terrible, took a while to build up the plot line.
The Greenlanders really make the show.

Indeed, yes.

Which is why it was such a show-stopper.

Big fan of Barry but that last episode - WTF?

Hope they bring it home better and make the landing stick.

With it being at the end, and the finale coming up, it might need its own spoiler thread.

I read that next week is the big episode for the season. Of the remainder anyway.

My guess is its going to be the later more than the former, which is the opposite, I think, of what you are thinking, looking forward to the next episode.

Have any Blitzers watched Generation Kill? 2008 mini-series written by David Simon (of The Wire fame) following a journalist attached to a group of marines during the invasion of Iraq in 2003.

I’m four episodes in and it’s fantastic so far

I’m quite enjoying Totally Completely Fine on Stan. Since it’s largely about suicide, there are Lifeline ads everywhere.

I have an appalling fear of heights and cringe every time anyone goes near the clifftop, which is the epicentre of the story. I always do the same thing when someone’s about to get splattered by a car.

And Thomasin McKenzie is such a quality young actress that I’m prepared to claim her as Australian.

As Australian as John Clarke, Split Enz, Sam Neill and Russell Crowe anyway.

Well, if they’re prepared to claim the lamington, the pavlova, Will Somerville and Luke Ronchi, I say “cop that, bro!”

I have indeed. It is excellent

I’m not sure how I expected it to end up. But if I made 700 guesses, I still wouldn’t have been close.

I liked it. Got a bit OTT in parts but otherwise it was a god watch. Good mix of laughs, serious stuff and stupidity.

Unforgotten S5 starts Sun May 14 at 20.30. BBC First.

This time around there will (obviously) be a different dynamic but hopefully the quality of previous seasons is maintained.
