The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

The 1960's, a time when east and west didn't get on; not much different to now really! Loved the comedy in this, it makes the movie. When it ended, I was honestly surprised, I was waiting for the next scene... sequel please!

Sense8: 1x12 I Can't Leave Her

I can't believe that's the ending of the season. So much to explain. I see the only viable resolution being they have to get to Whispers and take him out. Is that Season 2? I think my favourite character remains Wolfgang

Well. Now I feel depressed. What a mountain of personal baggage revealed in the last 45 minutes. Do we think Lito knew the gun was fake? He must have right?

Ahsoka: Season 1

I pushed through all 8 episodes. Sorry, this was quite poor. I don't know specifically what's wrong it just doesn't work. After the other shows recently Like Kenobi and Mandalorian I had a different expectation. This is, boring. I say 5, thats frankly on the generous side.

MacGyver

Sad this was cancelled, it could have gone further and it could have been way better. It seems wide open for someone else to pick it up.

I'm not a fan of the Russ Taylor character; they could have done without him and way too much Desi....

Love the humour, love the action and the great Mac-style resolutions to problems

Blanche: Hello? Yes, this is Blanche and how did you get this number? And better yet, why am I even talking to you? I don't like you. Matter of fact I hate you. You can just tear up my number and then go climb back under your slimy rock with all the rest of your slimy friends! And don't you EVER call here again!
Blanche: Dorothy, call Stan.

This was an OK movie and far above the quality that has been available to watch over the last 12 months. Plot holes by the bucket load and never was there a more insipid villain in the guise of the insurance underwriter.... what did happen to him in the end? Something gruesome I hope; perhaps that was a cut scene.

I feel there was a missed opportunity with the Ice Road itself, more suspense, more drama. Goldenrod was a bit of a twit really wasn't he... supposedly experienced but actually not so much. The best prop has to be the bobbleheads; every vehicle should have one!

The Woman in the Window

Probably one of the best movies I have seen this last 12 months. Haven't read the book, the movie holds attention, the last section much faster paced and surprising actually.

Can I just say... love Brownstones!

TINA

I'm not sure there was anything here maybe that hasn't been covered before. I often think that news people in modern times are ruthless beyond belief but actually when you watch historical footage like this you realise they have always been just as despicable.

Even if there wasn't much (if any) fresh discussion here it's still a wonderful celebration of a person battling the odds to become one of the most successful and well loved people in my lifetime.

Believe it Tina, you are The Best!
