State of the Union: Season 01
Chris O' Dowd and Rosaline Pike lead this. It's only 10 mins per ep so easy to plough through and is about a couple going to couples therapy. the ep covers the 10 minutes before the therapy where they meet up in a pub across the road and you pick up piece by piece how things are going and how this all came about as they try to brace for the meeting. It's not quite a comedy and isn't quite that well scripted in terms of natural dialogue but at the same time easy to get into.

I had no idea what was going on initially but it was an amazing piece of television. The core of the episode adds some important backstory too. It’s a fantastic piece of horror television. Gotta light?
(I'm thinking 100%...)
I like how he's factoring in his movie past. Eraserhead, esp, with the stark n dark parts.

It was a chore anyway, but I feel a bit robbed.
I'll probably watch the Wiki.
Tried watching Black Mirror, but fell asleep.

Ep 10 of Twin Peaks 2017. Cannot wait for Jim Belushi V Dougie. Loved the really crappy-looking vision of Laura that Gordon has. Disabled guy tied to a table took the cake. Dr Jacoby raving and a few more glimpses of Nadine looking foxy with her eyepatch and drapes shop.
It's just toooooo good. How could anything else even compare?

When it originally aired I only knew one other person watching it: a mate who lives in London. And every week we'd have a mad text-a-thon following each ep. The iPhone was like our water cooler

Everybody bangs on about how amazing it was, but I've found the last few series a real drag.
I think those early 2000s series where they had to fill 24 episodes until the writers' strike suffered from padding and too many seasons. 24, Lost and so on.
I swear for the last 7 hours, it's been the same story line with no further development.

Thank goodness for the likes of HBO who set a trend of quality over quantity, with satisfying arcs over 'mystery of the week' style programming.
