The Space Shuttle That Fell to Earth (1/3)

We finished The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon tonight (only 6 episodes). You know what, I'd pretty much given up expecting anything decent from The Walking Dead anymore (TWD, FTWD etc.). But this series actually had a lot going for it. It's the first time since maybe the first 2 or 3 series of TWD that I actually felt some suspense and scares from the zombies. In this they seem different and the setting in France certainly adds another dimension. I think there is another series too, so hopefully this level can be maintained. Unfortunately, from what I've read, The Walking Dead: Dead City (Negan and Maggie) isn't as good, but we'll see.

Yes, that's quite a good chiller, with an original plot and sensitively-handled subject matter that makes it stand out from the crowd.

We finished True Detective - Night Country last night (series 4). On the whole very enjoyable. The 2 leads were both excellent and without Jodie Foster it wouldn't have been as good. I did like the ending and the conclusion was satisfactory. It was great to look at too* and the feeling of claustrophobia was maintained well. The second best of the 4 seasons so far for me, but the first one will take some beating. 8.5/10

*set in Alaska but filmed both there and Iceland - brrrrrr

Started on a couple of movies last night, but both were crap so sacked them off and instead started on a TV show called Mrs Davis. It's really hard to sum up but this is the spiel from IMDb: "Sister Simone partners with her ex-boyfriend Wiley on a globe-spanning journey to destroy Mrs. Davis, a powerful artificial intelligence." It's as mad as a box of frogs but quite compelling too. Who comes up with this stuff? No idea, but I'm glad there are people out there willing to make bonkers stuff like this.
