[TV] Netflix - What's good to watch?

Tim Apple TV?

That's as American as, errr, pie.

Yes. I never said I got rid of all US services. I will be ditching it next month though.

Wondering what your thoughts are?

First episode I was taken aback and left with a state of wow I need to watch these all back to back straight away.

Second episode I’ve just finished watching and that felt like it dragged even though it was 15 mins shorter in runtime - didn’t really add anything to the story so far, and was a huge disappointment compared to the first episode.

Just about to start episode 3 so hopefully things improve from here

Kind of agree. I thought the acting in the first one was also far far superior, with a cast of British movie/Hollywood regulars and then the second one in the school was like watching an episode of Grange Hill with the acting level of some of the teachers/kids. Took me out of it a bit.

Speaking of acting though the kid who plays the young lad was absolutely incredible. Never acted before apparently, they just plucked him from a council estate somewhere. Reminds me of Tommo from This is England 20 years ago.

I just binned off Netflix and Prime. In part, because of trying to get rid of US based services, but also because there really isn't much in either of them I'm interested in watching right now.

I might come back to it when there's a new series of Black Mirror but I'm certainly not missing it.

Good timing that, then...
