Yup, I got caught out by the change from great to lousy.... it was lovely when I started the piece. Anyway, I hope the new strapline is more suitable.The weather's improving... is the TV?
Eh? Not up here. Driest, sunniest spring ever and now it's 10 degrees and a yellow rain warning is in force.
They have pulled it out 10mm....its a start.Some of these shows, especially the docs, would really benefit from 4K. They need to get their finger out.
They're not.Can anyone explain how sky are going to start charging for sports again yet are airing all the football on the free to air channel?
My Brilliant Friend (S2)
this is what I'm looking forward to if it's anywhere near as good as the first season (book)
The time limits on Now TV's content, often very, very short time limits really limits the appeal. I don't want to have to watch an entire series of a show in 30 days.
Plus the poor picture and sound quality and the obnoxious 50hz conversions add to the pain. It's just a poor service which unfortunately still has the HBO licence.
Me & my wife (who has Italian parents from Campania) thought season 2 was even better than the first one. You have a treat in store.

Really enjoyed S1 (my wife is from Parma), so looking forward to this
The Guardian review of My Brilliant Friend gave EP1 of S2 5 stars (out of 5).
This site has a clear bias in many areas. The heavy handed moderation doesn’t help matters either.Well yeah, and it was good enough to show in cinemas in Italy.
Anyway over the last year I have come to the realisation as far as media (Film/TV/Music) AV forums is not the place to go. Far to stuck in genres and far to stuck in reviewing what the reviewer likes. How many times can you review the same movie just on a new format??
Sure they do a bit of other stuff but you only have to look through all the reviews and you can see there is a clear bias.
Listen to the podcast and all to often it ends up talking about the same kind of thing with regards to media.
Could not disagree more folks. It goes without saying that key contributors have opinions, but that is all part of the debate. A fair and balanced website in my view.This site has a clear bias in many areas. The heavy handed moderation doesn’t help matters either.

It's like anything these days. Echo Chambers. Any dissent from the prevailing consensus and you're chastised. A couple of people had dissenting voices in the political threads and ended up banned.Well as far as I can tell the reviews have created a audience and that is who they play to. It's unfortunately like a youtube channel or a facebook group.
