Ththis show Pluribus is actually so... Different! Yet it also strikes a cord also - You'll just have to see it to understand the horror of it all. As well as the joy.
I'm watching a drama series on Virgin, "Irish Blood." It's quite good, but as often with contemporary dramas, they can insult your intelligence on occasions. At other times, during their attempt to create some "suspense," they only succeed in causing irritation and you're tempted to shout at the screen, "For cryin' out loud, get on with it!" This is guilty of both.
I reached the end of the series last night, having fast-forwarded some of the daft bits. But we were left with a dramatic, "Irish cliff-hanger," with one of the characters in "mortal danger." "We'll" have to wait until series 2 is broadcast. I wont bother, I was progressively losing interest with stupid plot elements throughout the last two episodes. I coined a phrase for such things, nearly 20 years ago and put it on Urban Dictionary. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=The+Pantomime+Factor&defid=3195441
As I've a bit of spare time today, I've been going through my TV mag. to see if there's any decent films on over the holiday, but there seems very few that interest me. It's a bit of a pain with "Talking Pictures," as sometimes they have some excellent film noir classics. But you just get the title, with no synopsis. But IMDb is excellent for information about films. It also includes critical and viewer reviews, which can help you make up your mind. As long as it's on Freeview, I can record them on either of my two Humax tuner/recorders. I will admit, some go to delete a few minutes after starting to watch them https://www.imdb.com/
