@Th3solution Yeah really good episode. Bonus points for having Timothy Olyphant starring in it. I don't mind waiting a week for the next episode as I don't tend to binge watch stuff anyway. It didn't end on a cliffhanger when you are waiting too see the conclusion of the current episode, so don't really see the issue.

@JohnnyShoulder I had never seen him before, but he was great. A quick search shows me he’s in Justified and Deadwood so that fits. Looks like he also has done a couple video game characters, one in COD MW3.

@Th3solution I went on a Timothy Olyphant binge after watching him in Justified which is probably the best show of the 2010s. Deadwood is also brilliant.

Deadwood's amazing. I still need to watch the film but will probably go through the series again first.

Beast? How dare you.

@mookysam The film was really brilliant. I honestly think it would have been better if I had waited 10 years to watch it though, one of the major themes is the passage of time and it leans heavily towards viewers who watched it when it was first on. I’d recommend watching it blind, rather than straight after a binge of the TV show.

So Mandalorian Episode 1 was a thing

They literally faked people out just to unfake it at the very end lol

@nessisonett You should try Santa Clarita Diet. Yes it's kinda dumb and it only lasted three seasons but you can't not like Olyphant in it. Actually I take it back, it's not dumb, it's hilarious and I should just own my opinion.

@TheFrenchiestFry Yeah, I didn't get who that was but then, I'm not really a SW fan. I just watch for baby yoda and the occasional guest star. And if Rosario does indeed show up I'm definitely there for that too.

@RogerRoger I was the same. I couldn’t resist the temptation to watch right away. I think I might go back and rewatch season one, or at least a few episodes, while I wait.

I got interested in Olyphant (which is eerily close to The Lord of the Rings huge battle elephants called Oliphaunts) and looked up Justified with intent to try it but it’s only on Hulu apparently in the U.S. and I hesitate to subscribe to another service, even if it’s just a few dollars a month more from having D+. I do have access to Deadwood though, but it seems like he’s more of a side character there.

@Th3solution Oh no, Olyphant’s the main character in Deadwood. It’s an ensemble but he’s the main protagonist of sorts. Shame about Justified, it’s on Prime over here!

@RogerRoger Glad you enjoyed it! I'm trying to get my mate into it as he gave up after 2 episodes of the first season and is a huge Star Wars nerd in his own words. But I think he will like it as he said he has become disillusioned with the franchise after the sequel trilogy. I only finished watching the first season not too long ago so I shan't be giving it a rewatch myself.

Three episodes into the Invasion crossover in the Arrowverse, I go to put on the Legends of Tomorrow episode and it’s off Sky. Seasons 1,2,4 and 5 are on Sky but 2 isn’t. I checked Netflix and it’s only in the States. It was on Sky last night. Even the website lists every season except 2. Ended up biting the bullet and buying that one season on Prime for £20. £20 for essentially the second half of the season. I’m bloody raging and utterly confused as to why it disappeared. Just very very strange when every other season of every other show is on.

@RogerRoger I think I've managed to get him to carry on watching it. He also likes Sonic almost as much as you but is a self proclaimed Nintendo fan boy, so that is where the similarities end!

@RogerRoger Nah, we’ve got a Sky box and their catch up has had literally everything else in the Arrowverse. It just now doesn’t include season 2 of Legends of Tomorrow which happens to be the one I’m watching at the minute.

Any of you like the Berserk anime? (1997)

Oof. Episode 2 of Mando was a tough watch!

@RogerRoger Did you happen to watch the second episode of The Mandalorian 2? Just curious about your thoughts. I liked the first episode better but I still enjoyed it.
