As someone very late into Slow Horses (which is great IMHO) the similar premise of a department of misfits, this time in the Police had me worried about a bit of a copycat, but was based on Jussi Adler Olsens books from 2007, Dept Q on Netflix was quite brilliant. Loved it that I ended up binging over 1 day/night .
Despite the situation being a bit implausible (urinals and showers in their work space?) The case with various red herrings was excellent and compelling. Highly recommended MOM score 9/10
If you aren’t a Welcome to Wrexham watcher you may have missed this.
They had a win & get promoted game but had been limping over the line.
The manager asked Rob to do a Hollywood team talk. Rob obviously called up everyone as you can tell from the bleeps.
Epic moment of TV - Spoiler alert - we play them this season
A brilliant expise of Financial Services Sakesmen in the Noughties.
Oh
Wait
An American reality TV show where 4 (surely) mentally challenged pairs fly 45,000 miles around the world to swim with and phitograph Sharks
Annoying presenter.
But the Grandkids demanded Mum by them Snorkels and give them kessons on hols in France and are demanding to be taken to The Galapgos Islands to go swimming
50 years on from Jaws that is remarkable
I have to say
I binged the whole series since the cricket finished
A genteel homage to Happy Gilmour yet with a bunch of back stories.
And the usually annoying Owen Wilson plays it with hus noise turned down and is very good.
No spoilers, but Ep9 just dropped, it had a oh wow moment inside 3 minutes and then
Bravo. This show is top 3 streaming and it is well deserved.
Hey Phil?
Why do you seem barking nad compared to normal people?
Well, watch some TV
Its 50 years since Jaws. I saw it at the Cinema. After, you couldn’t even get me in the water on Bournemouth Beach.
When I got to Dubai, Terry & Alistair talked me in doing Diving. Getting in for my 1st Dive? It was the bravest thing I ever did.
Some years later up in the Musandam I encountered a 3m Reef Shark. I could have touched it. Fear is the 1st emotion, but, suddenly I was filled with amazement- it was truly a life changing moment for me. What a beautiful animal.
With Jaws50 there are lots of Shark shows, I enjoyed, All the Sharks everywhere, the ITV Shark! Celebrity Filled Waters is grating but reaches a point in Ep 3 where the Celebrities are me - maybe first time ever!
Each one expressing to the cameras what I felt on that day. (Sure they had a lot more elf n safety round them, but seeing them have those emotions- damn)
Save the Sharks.
Truly the closedt I’ve come to reliving the emotion of that day is the reaction of this bunch of numpties
