Bobs Burgers

Still one of our favourite shows. It's tradition to download and watch the new episode every Tuesday night.

Really enjoy it


Found this on my Amazon Stick on the weekend, started watching it and wasn't sure but only watch 20 mins, might give it a longer go.


I watched about half an hour and turned it off. Could be interesting. I've read a few books about dodgy Wall St people, and SEC investigations, etc.

It didn't keep my attention.


Not even the opening scene with Chuck Rhoades? :shock:
I thought you were into that stuff..................

I'm on Series 1 / Episode 11. It's still better than half the crap on TV after Monday nights


I'm with you Jimmy, good show. Just about to start season 3

I found that too, its one of those shows where you need to give it your full attention unlike shows like The 100 where I can watch whilst on my Supercoach or on here

I loved it, but I think it helps if you were a massive breaking bad fan beforehand

Looking forward to season 4 in a month

I am Benny but even more reason why I'm struggling. By season 2, Breaking Bad was unmissable. I'm still struggling to get hooked by a thread in BCS. It'll come, I haven't given up on it but its a slower burn.

Definitely a slower burn. Nowhere near as much action but still very well written imo.

Almost more like mad men than breaking bad

"slower burn" makes it sound painful. It's not. It's enjoyable, it's just slower.

I haven't seen mad men, but i have that to watch too!

I'll get back into it. I've got Westworld S1, Mad Men, BCS S2 and Narcos S2 to watch. At the moment, Westworld S1 is the priority because of people at work raving about it but Narcos S2 beckons.

Mad men is sensational.

But it’s one of those shows where If someone asked you right after what happened you might struggle to answer. Because nothing really happens haha. But it’s one of the best shows ever for a reason.

Westworld Season 1 is pretty decent, Season 2 on the other hand is confusing AF ... I might wait til you've watched it and can explain it to me lol.

Been struggling to find a new show to watch recently, so much rubbish.
Watched the first episode of Preacher, different! Will persist with it for an episode or two.

I loved Preacher all the way up to about half way through the second season. That's where it lost me.
