Came up on my recommendations. It's about as redneck as you'd anticipate.

Well, it's been mentioned on here already but I spotted Long Way Up on Kodi.
Just onto the first episode so far and yeah. I'll be watching the next one as its good so far.

Watching Ozark at the moment. I'd say some episodes are better than others, so much so I'm struggling a bit tbh...

I really need to crack on with series 2, but I've dipped back into Justified ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489428/ ) instead, and still have 4 seasons to go.
And I've still not started the latest Man in the High Castle either

Read the novel. It doesn't really scratch the surface of Lovecraft's* worlds, is the telly show any better?
*HP was a bit of a racist too
Proud Tory scum since 1974.

Re: Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.
I'm just three episodes in and so far I'd say it's Lovecraft influenced,rather than full on Cthulhu. Good enough for a mindless watch anyway!moth wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 2:29 pmSkub wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 1:50 pm Watching Lovecraft Country at the moment.

Racism probably wasn't seen as a bad thing back then,just a fact of life,the past is a different country,etc...

The Chicago 7 - a Netflix film about the group of anti-Vietnam protestors charged with conspiracy to riot in the late 60s.
Always been a fan of Aaron Sorkin’s stuff, with its fast paced dialogue. Really good and well worth a watch.
4/5.

I thought I would find SBC a distraction in The Spy but he plays a straight part well.
