Be Excellent To Each Other

I've never read any of it, but it's one of the two books that Mrs Squirt has hurled across the room in a rage at it's awfulness ( the oher being The Notebook ).

I remember once listening to a group of three women discussing the books after they'd all read what I think was the third in the series. They each declared that they were actually in love with the character, and how he made them feel all giddy, and how well written it was (even though there was a pretty open consensus between every other human on earth that it was awfully written).

A couple of weeks previously I'd been chatting to one of these girls and she said how much she loved reading. I recommended One Hundred Years Of Solitude and The Name Of The Rose. She described 50 Shades as the best book she'd ever read, so I think we just liked different genres.

It's one if only two books I've thrown away (the other being The Lovely Bones, which I just hated).

The UK's fastest and best selling paperback of all time, folks.

Let's not forget that the UK also thinks that Mrs Brown's Boys is the best sitcom of the 20th Century.

Worse than that they thought it was good idea to vote Tory and leave the EU.

Nah, Mrs Browns Boys is worse.

I know the publisher, not well, but I have met her a few times. She is a good friend of one of my good friends. Boy, has she made a lot of money. Last I heard it was somewhere in the region of £50m

Well I suppose I can't really comment since I haven't ever watched an episode of Mrs Brown's Boys and for that matter we haven't actually left the EU yet so for all I know they might all be right.

Hooten and the Lady clunked a bit but was OK.

Just downloaded that for tomorrow night.

I think it has legs. You won't feel let down

Watched an episode of Lucifer last night and really enjoyed it. Not sure if it was the first episode or pilot that we watched, but it was great all the same.

Gary from Miranda as Lucifer was a bit slow to settle in my head as I kept expecting him to dance badly or something. Also he's not as attractive in this, I think because he's supposed to be a bit more edgy and less lovely.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is back today whoooooo

Whoooo Terry!

Grim..., What happened to season 6 of GoT on Plex?

Hang on, it's there on PC but not Xbox. Odd

I have no idea what you are talking about.

Xbox? You have a PS4...

It's light, fairly forgettable entertainment that hit the spot.

Mrs K: "Theon will be crowned king by Colin the octopus"

Plex runs v shit on the ps4. So does PS plus funnily enough

Netflix US had the fifth and final season added last week, but there's no indication of when the UK will get it, so I watched it via VPN yesterday. The final season starts a little poorly as it tries to tie up the loose ends from the end of season 4, but by the end of the series, it's all rounded off nicely.

Excellent show, if a little far-fetched at times (the whole premise of a supercomputer AI watching everyone and making predictions actually becomes one of the least far-fetched plot points)

Argh Christ Amy Acker!

Umm, is that a good or bad thing?

Very good

Nooo, she annoys me. Wheedon was in love with her and threw her in for all the "really hot girl" roles he had, but I just didn't like something about her.

Fred was fairly dull but Illyria was good. And she's excellent in Much Ado About Nothing.

She was good in that, but she was rubbish in Dollhouse.

Amy Acker >>> Felicia Day.

Was she scarred in Dollhouse? And timid?

No, that was Summer "River from Firefly" Glau.

Acker was scarred, but she was a doctor.

For much of it. Then not so much. I thought she was great in DH.

Oh wait, maybe she was.

Craster has just watched it, he can tell us.

Huh. Look at that.

River wasn't scarred or timid. She had an arm that didn't work though.

I loved DH, it's where Topher's name comes from. I'd happily watch it through again, er, when we've got a telly.

I thought she was mad shy?

I should watch it again.

Unexploded Politician is pretty good. Kiefer is doing a good job at being less Jack Bauer than usual.

Love it!

I agree with this.

Huh. It's not a series binge dump. What is this, the 20th century?

Inorite?
Ep 2 was pretty good. Not sure where they're going with this but liking it so far

Aftermath was ok, but nothing special.

Season 2 , Ep1 of Ash vs Evil dead is online now (shown on Starz on Sunday)

And its as glorious as you'd expect it to be

Where legally can I see season 1?

Watched episodes 1-3 of Luke Cage.

9/10

Very very good'

Or on prime video...

"This is us" was lovely. A really charming little show.

Wowee, Westworld 1x01 is fantastic.
