I'm always years behind with most of these things. Currently watching series 4 of The Walking Dead.

Not normally my cup of tea, but gave it a try and found it to be better than I thought it would be, so seeing it through to the end now.

I mean, he has already managed to keep going through the god awful series where they

search for the girl repeatedly before just finding her in the barn they have walked past every day

Once you get through that then the rest is a doddle.

I am a big fan of walking dead and fear the walking dead. But they don’t have drag out some bits.

On to Episode 11 of Happiness as pretty much binge-ing it in every spare second I have.

Really enjoyed it. It’s nice to have an actual new twist on the zombie genre. Not always the best plot but some of that could just be lost in translation and some of it is a little predictable. But very watchable when there has been a bit of a gap of anything zombie related for a while.

Just finished it.

I enjoyed it too.

Some of it was real pantomime.

Oh yeah, I think that’s part of the K drama style with zombie stuff though. All of Us Are Dead had some ridiculous parts as well (season 2 coming out soon apparently) but they tend to get the mix right.

Bit of a crush on Han Hyo-Joo as well

They always have some very attractive leads in all of their tv series.

Loving Reacher series 2. I'm a massive fan of all the books. Cheesy as hell but accept it and enjoy.

Yeah so erm, for some reason the bbc has bought the rights to make a series of Gladiators. Just seen it advertised. I dunno!

Just finished Oppenheimer on IPlayer. Very good, although they seemed to quickly shoot through the bombing of Japan. Last two episodes on the McCarthy witch-hunt of Commies were excellent. Be interesting to see how the film compares when I get round to it.

Nigella is on BBC2. Time for a festive tug.

Was a big fan of the books until Andrew Childs got involved for whatever reason! The last few that he has “co-written” haven’t been a patch on the original sole Lee Childs books!

Totally agree mate. When it was just Lee Childs, he was actually aging Reacher in the books and you could foresee an ending. Now his brother has gegged in its all forgotten! I'll keep reading though!
