Watched the Netflix limited series Manhunt: Unabomber recently. The story of America's most prolific serial bomber with 16 hits over 17 years and the man who would end up catching him. It's interesting but anyone who knows the full story of the Unabomber may find it dull. I liked it though. Recommended it to a friend and he also liked it.

Just wish the pace was faster. Will give it 3.5 / 5 stars.

Yes I have the same feedback. Having followed part of the scandal as it unfolded back then, I was looking forward to some more inside dope perhaps and was left feeling mildly disappointed. Still worth a watch.

Any reviews of Criminal Justice on Hotstar?

Just finished Queen's Gambit.

This series has a small amount of drama and revolves mostly around Chess and has really long episodes; yet, I didn't get too bored with it and stuck through watching it over three days. (And I don't play Chess)

3.5/5

I watched it long back. It is quite engrossing and well made series. Just keep in mind that it's dark and quite a bit sad as you will be seeing how life is in an Indian jail (quite an eye-opener)

Vikrant and Jackie did a fabulous job

I would rate it 3.5/5

Have seen a few posts on Schitt's Creek. We have been watching this about 3-4 months ago and binge watched it.

It was such a pleasure to watch this show. As some have already mentioned, this has to be one of the best comedy series out on air. Every dialogue, every facial expression is simply brilliant and fell absolutely together

Father-Son duo did a great job and deserve all the accolades this series gets

My favorite characters in sequential order are

Annie Murphy (Daughter)- She is outstanding
Eugene Levy (Father)- His facial expressions are out of this world
Daniel Levy (Son)- His dialogue delivery and facial expressions is highlight of this show
Chris Elliot (Mayor of Schitts Creek)- He is my favorite character of this entire show. He is a delight to watch
Catherine O Tara (Mother)- She was good but, a fair bit of overacting

P.S : One of my most favorite scene is Daniel singing Tina Turner's " Simply the Best" to his lover. What a scene and what a song

Overall, this is a must watch series and I would also rate it 5/5

[PPS]

Watched 'ZeroZeroZero' on Amazon Prime. A Crime Drama about a cocaine shipment with many characters spread across continents & a bit of a complex narrative which you figure out after a few episodes. Overall an above average watch.

Also saw 'The Night Manager' on Prime. A suspense thriller which starts of in a Cairo Hotel, it has an interesting plot. Its more like watching a Bond movie I felt. Good Performances by the cast. Overall a good mini-series.

I think the original question was related to the new series of Criminal justice which was released recently.
I watched in the last week only and found it quite good though the plot has been dragged a bit. 5-6 episodes would have been a lot better than 8 episodes.

Having said that, it is pretty good and I would rate it a solid 8/10. Just for reference, I would rate the previous season 7/10. And without revealing too much, it does raise a very sensitive topic which might be considered as a taboo by our society. Definitely worth a watch.

Our family is quite enjoying Criminal Justice Season 2. We're big fans of Pankaj Tripathi, so that is definitely a contributor, but even the story line is interesting. If you like crime dramas, I would recommend a watch. Lots of twists & turns to keep you engaged.

Pankaj Tripathi again did fantastic job in Criminal Justice 2. He reminds me of one of my favourite actors Amol Palekar, just so effortless acting, calm and controlled no excessive drama or loud dialogue deliveries.

Hi!

Can anyone tell me where I can watch the New Year special episode of Doctor Who in India? It is called "The Revolution of the Daleks" and it aired in the UK (BBC iPlayer) on January 1, 2021.

Thanks!

Thanks for the recco!. Watched it last night and truly enjoyed the docuseries. I use to follow the case back in 2011 so it was nice to get into the details and other back ground happenings.

Sometime back I watched another documentary on Jeffrey Epstein:Filthy Rich. Highly recommend this one too.

Completed watching "Big Little Lies" Season 1 yesterday on Hotstar. A very good show with outstanding performance from Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley and child artist Darby Camp. Looking forward to watching Season 2.

You are right on all counts. Me and missus were watching it and finished it yesterday.

Worth a watch for once and IMO, almost all actors did their part well.

Some how, this time, Pankaj did not get a role where he could give in much, despite that, his expressions are amazing. The lead lady's act was nice too, she did justice IMHO.

Mr Robot, Amazon Prime, 4/5

If you like Mr Robot, the 4th and final season is now available on Amazon Prime. It is a the story about a hacker who also suffers from mental issues. It tells the story of how he leads the fight against a global group of powerful and rich men.

The series is helmed by Rami Malek (who later on got fame for the Oscar winner Bohemian Rhapsody) and Christian Slater.

I watched Nailpolish on Zee5 Premium. The movie is thrilling and superb acting by Manav Kaul and Arjun Rampal.

Its more of a Netflix type movie with good script and story but released on a wrong streaming service!

The Family Man Season 2 on prime from 12th February
