Same for me too. Enjoyed the first season when it came out, tired of it soon after and now even the first season doesn't appeal to me anymore. It's funny how things can shift like that

The UK one was the original. If you like taut, tense political drama with a main character you love to hate, it should be for you. I loved it.

Primal

Adult swim cartoon where a Neanderthal and his dinosaur pal face prehistoric challenges like getting eaten and beefing with mammoths. No dialogue, tons of action, and the character development is excellent. From the maker of Samurai Jack and it's basically everything I like about that show without the annoying ****. Probably the best animated show I've ever seen.

I'm pumped for the next part of Stranger Things.

Just started watching Band of Brothers. Always wanted to see it. Pretty intense first episode. Some major stars in it too.

I should rewatch that. Great show.

Seconded. Was obsessed with it back in the day. I should still have the DVD box set. It came in a tin can. My most prized DVD possession.

Nearly finished it now. My god it's the most realistic, no-holds-barred portrayal of war I think I've ever seen. Not a gung-ho in sight. Going on to The Pacific after this. Wish there was more of it. The interviews at the beginning of each episode only drive further home how this isn't just made up ****.

It should probably also be noted that my remark "it's intense" was BEFORE they got posted to Europe. Holy good **** on a bike! If episode one was level three, this is level a million now. The camera angles really add to it (the direction, I mean) - makes it really feel like there's someone trying to capture the action as it happens, and that they're in danger too. Superb.

I'm assuming you've gotten to Hurtgen Forest by now? You should really look that battle up for your war history journal. Absolutely brutal and there wasn't even a point to fighting it.

Oh yeah. Legs blown off left, right and centre.
Just got to the episode where they liberate the concentration camp.
Fuck. FUCK! FUCK FUCK! :(
