Just watched the 3 Black Mirror season 5 episodes on Netflix.
Been a bit underwhelmed to be honest. I love Black Mirror but something didn't quite hit home.

The first one was decent, and the second one was average. The 3rd one was awful. Not their best work. Far from it.

Yeah I'd go with that. Is it only 3 episodes this season?

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

Yep was very good, it was pretty much This Is England version 2.0 but that’s certainly no bad thing

Last episode of Top Gear last night. I must say, i enjoyed this one.
As i mentioned originally it made for unconformable viewing at times with Freddie being a knob all the time and being a dick towards Chris.
The producers must have seen it because when segments were done with only 2 of them, any combination of the 2 it was actually pretty good.
Chris' 20 second reviews crack me up too

I think this was the best Top Gear have produced since the original cast members departed - could be better, but at least it is getting back to it's roots somewhat

I'm enjoying this series of Top Gear, a vast improvement on Matt Le Blanc and Chris Evans.

I can't be doing with Top Gear but need to give the Virtues a go, would watch anything by Shane Meadows.
I read some hype and was prepared to be underwhelmed but fuck me, Chernobyl was superb in so many ways.

Is Chernobyl available free to view anywhere yet? Sent from my SM-J330FN

Whe you say roots what do you mean, early CHM was pretty good and if the new TG is like that I might be tempted to take a look, the later stuff (and TGT) was/is dire!

The new Top gear is going back to the early Clarkson/May/Hammond style.
They all seem to get on, take the piss out of each other with no ego's, they fight and laugh and its not about the cars its about how they bounce off each other.
Individually I dislike them all for one reason or another but as a team they make a great unit.
I heard some good things so I gave it a go and it was excellent, the electric shock/milkshake sequence in episode 2 (I think) was comedy gold.
At least Twat Le Blanc and the ever increasing ego of Chris Evans have left along with the black personailtyless chap who was neither funny nor knowledgable.
Give it a go, I don't think you will be disappointed.
