Enjoyable... a little bit style over substance, but it is EXCELLENT style. First series was great... enjoying what I've seen of the second so far too.

Cillian Murphy's a fucking don.

Tom motherfucking Hardy is KILLING IT in the second series.

I've seen a few clips from Key & Peele, and so far they are the only US sketch though that I actually liked.

chappelle show

kroll show

are pretty good too

Big Comedy Bang Bang fan myself. It's really good. The humour is just so dry, it's
hard to understand their perspective on a bit sometimes. Great guests too.

Someone on here convinced me to listen to the podcast regularly as well.
Might have been you hubb?

yeah

I love the podcast but I'm having problems with the show living up to that tbh... scott aukermann is incredibly funny but not on his how........ yet!
(the u2 podcast he does with adam scott is but i think ive recommended that too many times now )

I loved the Garfunkel & oats tv show evnthough some of the singing is annoying, but it has the same people involved and it's time for some nutty girls perspective tbh

Is it really?

I had to turn off in the middle of the first ep.

The series as a whole definitely isn't as strong as the first... and it's always been style over content, but yeah, it's worth watching for Tom Hardy's Jewish gangster. He's wonderful.

when you say series you mean season right?

No, when you say season you mean series.

ah right, my bad

No.

British shows generally broadcast for roughly 6 weeks - series
American shows generally broadcast for upward of 3 months, which is by astounding coincidence the length of a season.

Clever, huh?

so rather get back into boardwalk and then watch peaky if that isn't enough, right?

the irish bird fucked me off of that

Yeah, Boardwalk's essential. Peaky Blinders is filler, but good filler.

mass graves are funnier than key and peele

so THATS why the first season (sue me) of peaky blinders was so short..hmmm even our tv is more glutenous than yours

^I've noticed with American shows they seem to have scaled back from the 24 episodes seasons which were so common in the most popular shows (Lost, Prison Break, 24, etc) to stuff like Breaking Bad & Homeland's 13 episode seasons.

Think the filler is more obvious in American sitcoms which have a lot of episodes per season. When you take something like Peep Show which in 8 series has had no poor episodes imo.

i mean at the end of the day, all i want is season 4 of The Borgias

I have a pang once every few months and Google in vain hoping someone at Showtime has found an ounce of charity in their blackened souls.

I watched some of Borgia the other week. Can't get past the accents.

yeah but Irons plays Rodrigo so fucking good

He's perfect. So's Sean Harris' Micheletto tbh.

I'm going to have to watch the whole series again at some point... I only haven't because I don't want to be disappointed by the [lack of] ending again.

it was recently put on Netflix so i might have to join you

i'll bring the popcorn (;
