I’ve just finished Series 4 of Downton Abbey. I’m just chilling on the sofa watching Dark Shadows. I’m on episode 65. Only 1000 more to go.

Reacher starts Season 3 on February 20 on Amazon Prime.
Brilliant series.
I tried to pick up the books after watching Season 1, but they just weren’t for me (ok, only ever tried to read book one).
The TV adaptation, on the other hand, is one of the best series of stories of its kind, in my opinion.

I rather enjoyed the first season, the second was fine, but not as good. Can’t wait for the third.

Any EastEnders viewers around :eyes: Really excited for the rest of this weeks eps to unfold but hate the long waiting for the ep!

I used to watch it with my Mum, she watched all the soaps but Eastenders was the only one I was invested in.

Haven’t seen it for about 20 years though, sorry!

Aw that’s the same as me! She watched them all idk how she managed. I used to watch Corrie and Hollyoaks but EE has always been my fave so I stopped the others ages ago.

Not to worry! It’s a huge week I’m really excited.

We have been watching “3 Body Problem” on Netflix. 3 episodes in. It’s very weird! But good.

Is One Piece any good?

What looks to be the whole series is on iPlayer, so I’m considering checking it out. [1]

Is that not like 1000+ episodes?

Looks like 1088.

I was asking whether to watch it because it looks like quite a large undertaking!

My wife introduced me to The Way Home for our next show to watch together. She seemed excited about it. After finishing the first episode, I realised that it’s a family drama with time travel as a major narrative element. This should prove to be interesting…

It could be her gateway drug into science fiction!

Then you can suggest she watches this little British show called Doctor Who!

Point out that it is a BBC show. That could make it feel a bit more posh (at least it would do here).

You can also use the argument that Tians wife watches it with him and they are having a great time with it :grinning:

It’s funny, because she kept explaining to me how time travel works, and I kept thinking to myself, “I get all this; my favourite show is all about time travel!”

The only drug I’d be happy about her taking!

I don’t know if I can make her trust the word of an internet stranger and his wife, even if they are Swedish :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Over 1000 episode or 100 comics but definitely worth your time! One of the biggest contributor to my Japanese learning lol

So I started One Piece.

Halfway through the first episode, and while it’s good fun, the voice acting is awful! [1]


  1. I only have access to the English dub ↩︎
