Season 2 of Broadchurch just finished its run in the UK at the end of February.

 

It should air on BBC America and be available on Netflix soon. 

 

I read that it will take a while to get on Netflix.

 

I found a leak on youtube.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_yK6t9n0zg

Quality leaves a little to be desired but I watched all eight episodes and I didn't miss a thing.

 

I am telling you guys, if you liked broadchurch and like the British cop stuff then watch Happy Valley (Netflix) and Line of Duty (Hulu).  Season 2 of Line of Duty is solid.  Very well done.

I still need to get around to Happy Valley. It has been on my list for a couple of months now.

Living With Lincoln on HBO. It was pretty cool.

They Came Together - 6/10

 

Spoof of romantic comedies. Had some funny moments.

Season 2 finale of Broadchurch

Great show all the way through. Like an acquaintance of mine said, it's a shame the season is only 8 episodes. Hate to see it end.

Just watched Interstellar.  I thought it was pretty lame.  The first hour of the movie was unbelievably boring.

We started Silicon Valley. Pretty good so far.

Kimmy Schmidt needs some love in here. John Hamm is hilarious in it.

Just finished Happy Valley. My wife and I really enjoyed it. 6 episodes.Thanks for recommending it.

 

4-4.5/5

 

Good plot and good acting. BBC does it again.

 

If you like The Fall and Broadchurch you will like this show.

[Redondo]

Note to anyone watching any of the BBC shows. The Fall, Peaky Blinders, Broadchurch and Happy Valley

 

I had to watch them with the closed caption on. With their strong accents and words that we don't use I would have missed quite a bit of the plot.

Ha, redondo

i have togo back and turn on CC a few times per episode

[TobiasFunke]

47 Ronin. Thought it was rad.

[nando714]

secrets and lies on ABC is the shit

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Rewatched The Drop! Tom Hardy is such an awesome actor. The end bar scene is great.

[Redondo]

It's a trip. I know they are speaking English, but it's like they have marbles in their mouth and mumble. It would be difficult to live or travel there for an extended period of time.

Finished season 1 of Silicon Valley. Ended with a bang.

you or the show?

Noah.

 

It was free on Amazon Instant Video.

 

Truly awful.  Not a good biblical epic.  Not a good fantasy film.  Not a good fantasy film built on a biblical epic.  Not a good movie in any way.  Felt like a made for tv movie where they made the choice to use 20% of their budget on fx instead of 10%.  

 

Aronofsky is a gifted film maker. Pi, Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler.  I state these as an incantation against Noah, and look forward to Aronofsky's next film.   

 

Agree 100%. Noah sucked. Couldn't even get through the whole movie.

"Last man on earth" FXX.  I really liked the first episode, but by the second you could see that Phil was really lost without a lot of background noise to hide his lies.  It's still pretty funny, and I'll keep watching it.

 

"Let's be Cops".  Watched this last night after work and, luckily, I had a few beers and a shot of whiskey to enjoy with it.  It has some pretty funny set-ups, and anything with Rob Riggle is alright by me.  At the end, I think they tried to make a statement about how the boys learned a new-found respect for Cops, along with their own confidence.  Worth a watch, if it's in your cable package.

 

"CBGB"  Alan Rickman plays the owner of the famous NYC punk club.  He opened it hoping to bring country music to New York...  I thought it was really cool to see the first-steps of the likes of "The Dead Boys" "Blondie" and "Talking Heads."  Anyone who loves music should invest in this story (the movie was enjoyable too!).

The Middle - A very under rated half hour comedy. This week's Heck Brothers Old-timey Barbecue Sauce was classic.

"The Gambler" - D- out of 10.  I'm not sure what was worse: how pretentious every character in this movie was or how boring it was.  Everybody got to make a speech which didn't seem to do anything other than convince us that they were all blowhards in love with their own shallow, deep-on-the-surface ideas.  Nothing or nobody at all to root for in the movie.

So they didn't know when to fold 'em.
