And still available on Beeb iPlayer.
Season two of Colin From Accounts, proper grown up comedy
Really enjoyed The Perfect Couple on Netflix.
Two recommendations:
Sambre BBC4, French crime. It’s based on a true case, but don’t let that pu you off. Excellent acting showing the case from various perspectives.
Bad Monkey Apple+. Another cop series, set in the Keys. Quirky.
Is it me or has Colin From Accounts gone crap? Loved the first series but the second one seems way off with daft plots and doing the second series thing of introducing loads more characters. I’ve watched 3 episodes but think that’s it
I think it gets better after 3 – but I wouldn’t rave about it as some are doing. It doesn’t seem to know what it wants to be now e.g. is it quirky comedy, adult stuff with anti-woke tendencies and/or, at times, a sitcom. The episode at the family house was boredom to me.
Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War - Netflix documentary.
I thought that but it does warm up, guess the first series was a bit of a surprise. It’s the tricky 2nd album thingy stuck with it it does improve.
Bad Monkey is definitely worth watching.
Rebel Ridge on Netflix is a good watch. Although it is hard to believe that the Louisiana Police are that racist in modern America. Charismatic lead actor is excellent and although a bit far fetched is an engaging watch.
Racism is bone deep in the United States. It’s always lurking, almost everywhere. But in some places, such as parts of the South, it remains a potent and toxic force.
Plenty of examples of racist policing in America on YouTube.
I am sure you are right, but the level of racism depicted seemed more like 1963 vs 2023.
To be fair, I haven’t seen it yet. I’ll probably watch it this week some time.
