| I think Helen might have enjoyed fallout more than I did, at least in some respects, because she wasn't looking for the bits and pieces, just watching for its own spectacle. I have to say the final episode felt rushed to an end and pressed to set up season 2 (which I'm sure is worse in streaming the... |

Snippets of Roman life given in her usual entertaining and slightly-filthy way, but really needed to be a much longer programme or a full series to do each topic justice. I watched this last night, was hoping it was episode 1 of a series. Disa... |

Yeah, we've still got half an hour to go (dessert needs preparing) but The Marvels is brilliant. Stupid internet basement trolls are stupid.
Even the CGI is better than anything else Disney has done in the last year, except maybe Loki season 2. |
