I gave up on Homeland a few seasons ago but I loved the first few series and am quite tempted to go back and rewatch them.

Just caught up on Homeland last night. I loved the ending, although I thought the plot went a bit haywire in the last few seasons, especially when the real life US politics became more surreal than the politics in the show.

I am going to miss Saul's funny walk!

I liked the ending, it seemed fairly conclusive but also allowed for it coming back at some point.

Eta Alison Moyet :cry: :cry:
This. I've just finished episode 3 when the closing credits are Yazoo - Only You. I'm a bit broken already.

ETA: I've actually been avoiding it so far as I loved Normal People (the book) so much I didn't think I could cope with an adaptation. Turns out it's as good, if not better. It's looks so beautiful and Marianne and Connell are perfect.

I can’t see anyone having mentioned it the last few pages but I’ve just binged all of Never Have I Ever today (yes, I am proud), and thought it was excellent. A very easy watch American high school comedy drama with cultural sensitivity, plus Geek/musical theatre jokes. Full marks from me.

Ozark was cracking.

TWD has picked up again too but I don't think anybody watches it anymore.

I got really pissed off with TWD, it but I can’t remember why. I might try it again.

This is HBO, so you know... I’m quite liking Run. Basically, two people who used to date at college agreed (back then) to meet on a certain train in a certain station at a certain time if either of them texted the other one the word RUN.

TWD went really weird and sappy for a few series, I think most people gave it up then. It'll never hit the heights of those first couple of series but I think it's still bloody good.

On a probably less popular subject, we're enjoying the Michael Jordan documentary even though we don't know much about him and even less about basketball. We are quite keen on a sports documentary though which isn't everyone's bag, I know :mrgreen:
