The Secrets of Quantum Physics: Einstein's Nightmare
Professor of physics Jim Al-Khalili investigates the most accurate and yet perplexing scientific theory ever - quantum physics. The first episode looks at how Albert Einstein thought he'd found the fatal flaw in quantum theory because it implies that sub-atomic particles can communicate faster than light. Good watch. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...-there-be-life |
Fear the Walking Dead.
Wanting to like this but the damn story is moving at a snails pace. |
Binge watching the new season of Portlandia on Netflix tonight. Carrie and Fred get better with every season.

No place where tigers live can possibly be a sh*t hole. Just look at this royal bengal in Bangladesh. He or she is loving it:

Horizon: Do You Know What Time It Is?
Particle physicist Professor Brian Cox asks, 'What time is it?' It's a simple question and it sounds like it has a simple answer. But do we really know what it is that we're asking? Very good watch, and an insight into how little we really know and understand. BBC iPlayer - Horizon - 2008-2009: 4. Do You Know What Time It Is? |
Z Nation has been really good so far this season. Giant step up from where it started.

Cybercrimes with Ben Hammersley Saw this on Netflix about a week ago and decided to watch it. There's only 6 episodes right now but the whole idea of the show is pretty interesting. Hoping they come out with more seasons or whatever because it's fun to watch. |
Currently watching Prime Suspect.
British crime series, actually more a series of films. Very long films. Very realistic, lots of police procedure stuff. Someone might find it boring, but I love this kind of thing. Plus Helen Mirren plays the main role and she is as awesome as ever. |
Narcos on Netflix is amazing. I'm only three episodes in, but I'm having fun learning about the drug war that changed Columbia forever.

The Inca: Masters of the Clouds
Dr Jago Cooper reassesses the achievements of the Inca Empire. He begins in Peru, where new evidence challenges preconceptions about its origins and significance. Good watch. BBC iPlayer - The Inca: Masters of the Clouds - 1. Foundations |
Horizon: Are Video Games Really That Bad?
The video game industry is a global phenomenon. There are over 1.2 billion gamers across the planet, with sales projected soon to pass $100 billion per year. But their very popularity fuels the controversy that surrounds them. They frequently stand accused of corrupting the young - of causing violence and addiction. But is this true? Horizon reveals a scientific community deeply divided. Some are convinced that video games incite aggression. Others insist they have no effect whatsoever on real-world violence. But away from the controversy, there is a growing body of evidence that suggests video games may help keep the brain sharp, and could soon revolutionise how we combat mental decline as we age. Decent watch. BBC iPlayer - Horizon - 2014-2015: 19. Are Video Games Really That Bad? |
However they might **** with your brain, Call of Duty hasn't incited jingoistic war murder in our youth. Kids don't want to join the military any more than they ever did, and whiny college hippies are as prevalent as ever, so I figure a mountain is being made of a mole hill.

Yeah, I think videogames are used as a scapegoat.
But saying that, years ago a friend and I would play Grand Theft Auto 2 on various drugs, and during that period if a car stopped in front of me in real life I'd sometimes feel compelled to pull the driver out and steal the car. :laughing: But I think that was down to the game and drugs. |
Pretty glad the majority of my video game experiences involved a donkey, two little people Italians, and a round yellow blob with a mouth.

Watching Fargo.
Entertaining enough, but nothing special. Don't get the high ratings it has. |
Oak Tree: Nature's Greatest Survivor
In this 90-minute film for BBC Four, entomologist George McGavin studies one of the great icons of the British countryside - the oak tree, a species that makes extraordinary transformations as it meets the challenges of the four seasons. BBC iPlayer - Oak Tree: Nature's Greatest Survivor I really enjoyed this, but feel I shouldn't. I mean it's one thing to go out and marvel at and enjoy real trees, but to watch them on TV? Hmm.... yeah, I think I probably need to get laid. |
AMC has been re-running The Walking Dead from the beginning to get people pumped for the new season's premier this Sunday. Last night caught the episodes where Rick kills Shane, then the hoard overtakes the farm, then they set up camp in the prison. Great stuff in hindsight.

Jesus ****ing Christ you people are worse than Facebook. Seriously, **** the **** off and put that **** in spoiler tags, you stupid, thoughtless ****s. If I were a mod I'd delete your posts.

From this day forward, I suggest you all tread lightly when announcing a movie, book, show, etc that you want to watch/read/are intending to watch/read. Because I will watch/read it first, and then ruin that **** for you out of pure spite.
Please test me. |

But Frowny is right, you'll see everything I mentioned about TWD coming from a mile away. That's if you ever get around to watching it. |

I think the only acceptable spoiler to be displayed in forums is "Bruce Willis was a ghost all along". Everything else is a genuine disgrace.
