What's worth streaming on TV.

I once went to Scotland home of my ancestors, spent an afternoon in a pub and literally couldn't understand a single word anyone said.

So, some drunken Scotsmen, I'm afraid you had no chance, nor would I. The language of the drunk Scot is understood only by other Scots in a similar state of inebriation but as such is the most common language spoken there

Was amazed at how many well educated people fell into this cult and most likely still involved with it.

religion and education are not related. Mormons and fundamentalists are born into it and its taken as the truth without question

I am very much enjoying.....

Only murders in the building.

On Disney + (star)

Staring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez
Plus a heap of cameos.

The three 'amigos' (see what I did there) set out to solve a murder that occurred in their apartment building while at the same time producing a podcast about it.

Don’t know if it’s been already mentioned, but ’Ozark’ is a good series.
Netflix.

Forgive my ignorance… whatever the accent is, it sticks in your head!

I've never watched it but I know it's supposed to be set in Birmingham so the accents shouldn't be cockney

I watched the series & liked it. I know nothing of the languages, but they did occasionally throw in some Romani/Gypsy as well.

Finally got to watch "Ford v Ferrari" (now on prime)

I just binged watched 'Capitani' about a cop in Luxembourg.

They seem to speak a mixture of french, german, dutch, and goodness knows what else.

Anyway, I've had it on my watch list but only just got around to it.

I liked it. It's worth a look for those fans of the genre. As a bonus, the episodes are only 25 mins long so it wont 'take long' to find out if it is a yes or a nope for you!


from wiki:

The series broke all records in its respective category on RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg.
Polling firm TNS Ilres determined that an average of 147,500 viewers watched each episode upon its initial release, corresponding to 29% of the population of Luxembourg aged 16 and over.
A survey by InternetPanel.lu showed that 90.4% of viewers were interested in seeing a second season.

(there is two seasons as well.)

Just watched Shania Twains new doco. Wow, there’s some memories there. At 56, she looks still as beautiful as ever. Some surprise packet confessions that I hadn’t heard before. And our very own Morgan Harper plays a significant role in her life.


Seen “Shania Twain: Not Just a Girl” on Netflix yet?

Wow, just watched Woodstock’99. I must of been living under a rock. Had no idea it was this bad. Three part series. You want to see what mob mentality can do, this is it.


Seen “Trainwreck: Woodstock '99” on Netflix yet?

Watch Trainwreck | Netflix Official Site

Woodstock 1969 promised peace and music, but its '99 revival delivered days of rage, riots and real harm. Why did it go so horribly wrong?

I remember reading about how crap it was a few years ago...and saw some non-netflix doco on it.

Prob just like an ave eels family reunion. lol.


Watching Unit 42 (Belgian) on netflix. I don't mind it. Episodes are 50 mins long but each 'crime' is solved in that time. I was getting used to the 'one' crime and 8-9 episodes in solving them, lol.

Annoyingly, season 2 has been out for a few years, but it's not on netflix...!

Watch Unit 42 | Netflix Official Site

A widowed cop tapped to lead a special cybercrimes unit teams up with a former hacker to hunt down tech-savvy criminals who are terrorizing Belgium.

Yes I watched Woodstock 99 yesterday.The breakdown of society can happen very quickly. KORN and Limp Biskit is the catalyst.

Damn sneaky netflix....

I've made a few comments on here about "Bordertown" a scandi noir set in Finland.

Season 3 was about a year ago.

BUT GOOD NEWS..

They made a movie, which is also on Netflix called:
Bordertown: Mural Murders.

It didn't show up on 'my list' as technically it isn't a Bordertown series, rather it is a 1h40min movie.

So for fans of the series (I think @Ranga , you were one?) you can find it on Netflix under Bordertown: Mural murders.

_______________________________________________________________________________

The same issue is seemingly going to happen with the Icelandic series "Trapped" A season three is coming out in September but it's called "Entrapped" so keep an eye out for that one.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Unit 42 (Unite 42) also has a second series, but I can't find it anywhere unless I was in France or Belgium and watching it there.

If you like your scandi (and I think you do) you need to watch Trom, set in the Faroe Islands. I'm not sure where it's available to watch but keep a lookout for it

 

[globaleagle]

Thanks, will do.

~hits up google immediately~

 

[globaleagle]

I watched "Katla" set in Iceland and while I didn't mind the premise...

I found it super slow, boring even.

After 3 episodes I went straight to the last ep (#8) and just watched that. I didn't feel I missed all that much and googled the rest. A pity, but you cant have hour after hour where nothing new happens.

Likewise...

The Sinner with Bill Pulman was also in the 'boring' category to me. Three series, watched 5 of the first 8 (in series 3) and then went to episode 8

I watched the first series, again skipping a fair bit and didn't bother with series 2. A pity as Jessica Biel was the producer and starred in the first one.

Found it.

Shall start watching soon.

thanks again.
