Yes Godless is possibly my favourite this year.

^This.

 

[PhilofCas]

Yes, Godless is brilliant!

 

[peter bj]

godless excellent

 

[Rug Doc]

Think I need to give Godless some screen time!!

I’m into Mr Robot atm. Series 1 good, series two so far a bit unbelievable.

YMMV, but I've found the third series a bit better than the second, thus far. Worth sticking with it.

If you like Mr Robot, you may also enjoy the German programme You Are Wanted, also on Amazon.

Watched half of the first episode of Godless and switched off, does it get better?

 

[DonQuixote99]

Not in my opinion, but I'm invested and I keep watching. Gets a bunch more violent in episode 4.

Same!

 

[tones]

I see "The Crown" is back soon. The first season was unexpectedly good - some of the scenes were brilliant (the dressing down of Lord Salisbury and Churchill). This one appears to deal with naughty Phil. Wonder if Her Maj is a fan?

 

[Suffolk Tony]

I can't seem to find any reference to Fargo series three. Pretty certain it was available in The States a while ago, but no sign of it over here - unless I've missed it?

Each episode is better than the one before. The characterisation build up is amazing.

Its in my top 3 now. Breaking Bad, Mad Men and Godless.

You can see it via Channel 4's All 4 service.

 

[Rug Doc]

Godless - is it violent or torture involved? Mrs Rug will refuse to watch it if so and I don’t want to get into it and then be told it’s too gruesome and stop watching it?!

 

[richardg]

It's about as violent as Fargo, every now and again something unpleasant happens. There is a massive shootout at the end. But you get that in John Wayne films innit.

 

[Rug Doc]

Thanks. It’s mainly torture that she can’t endure.

Funnily enough she enjoyed ep1 of Mr Robot last night, so we’ll be on that for a while.

 

[Suffolk Tony]

Thanks Richard. I realise I've been looking in the wrong place - thought it was on Netflix or Amazon Prime.

It may become available on Netflix in the future, series1&2 were.
