The "Big Bang" hasn't been any good for some time, years.

Likely already discussed, but "After Life" NETFLIX is quite good. Perhaps a bit dark, and some characters over-done, but still really good. The "star" is excellent and the cast diverse and interesting. I can't wait for season three.

After Life is great.

Extras, has the same two main characters, try it next.

They play small time actors trying to get work.

Ive watch both series of Afterlife... At the end of the second I found myself damming Ricky Gervais... I was in tears.

I hear everyone talking about it. Whats the big deal?

I think the main issue is that it is full of far fetched nonsense, by unbelievable characters, and with ridiculous plots.

But it is true.

We watched the second episode now lol that one was kind of wild already... wow. What is wrong with all these people?

Afterlife was great. His best yet. All the characters worked, excepting one, the counsellor. He was not believable, and if he was, why would anyone go to see him for a second visit?

It has Steve Carell, from usa office, and it was ok. We reckoned it was very funny in places, and probably a 'grower'.

It was almost a non pc version of star trek..The costumes and effects were good there were some laughs but some serious issues were adressed within the show.

I am only 4 episodes in, so I can make that determination later.

I didn't say I don't think she's crazy, too... but Joe is acting like a victim all the time so far when he does dumb stuff lol his music videos... omg.... he is such a character. It's like he's not real.

I think all of the people on the show so far are bizarre. I really don't like the places that are breeding the big cats like puppy mills... I'm okay with saving animals and breeding them to keep them from extinction, but a lot of them aren't even doing that. They are using them as toys, and it is sad.
