She was good. She played a has-been really well. I’ve just noticed she also played Young Cassandra in the first episode of season 11 (My Struggle III*). And she’s in Altered Carbon which I keep meaning to watch.
*I wish they’d come up with more creative episode titles for those ones, instead of My Struggle I, II, III and IV. I mean I know they want to avoid spoiling, but still…)
Yeah, I liked that they tagged that unexpectedly on the end of a standalone episode. A bonus.
Me too. Though I´m not sure since I´ve heard vastly different opinions on it.
How long is the Americans anyway? Two seasons or something?
Yeah, think it’s had mixed reviews.
I think it’s six (Googled cautiously in case of spoilers). I’m on series 3.
I´m actually at a bit of a loss at what to watch next, since I still don´t know when The Strain Season 3 will finally be on amazon prime (I had guessed it might coincide with the release of the DVD set, which would have been yesterday, but that did not happen). That´s the one I´m anticipating the most at the moment.
Yeah, there’s not much that’s blowing me away lately. So there’s nothing I want to push on you
Maybe they’ll upload The Strain for you soon.
I find it depends what mood I’m in, too.
The Americans – thriller mood.
The Twilight Zone – eerie scifi oldy-style mood.
The Confession Tapes – emotional mood.
Riverdale – guilty pleasure/voyeur mood.
Bob’s Burgers – silly mood.
Only Connect and University Challenge – nerdy mood.

Do I sense a little effort to restrain here? 
I guess I may go back to watching more (old and new) movies maybe. Less commitment to keep watching.
Not really. You just got lucky 
Good idea. I watched Sean of the Dead for the first time (say what?!) the other day. That and Ghost Stories were nice additions to my catalogue.
You mentioned World´s End a while ago, too. Was that also the first time you saw that one and have you seen Hot Fuzz?
Yes, and yes. I saw Hot Fuzz first out of the trilogy for some reason. It was my least favourite, so probably why I wasn’t rushing to see the other two. I think World’s End is my favourite one.
Hot Fuzz and World´s End made me think that Edgar Wright must really despise the english rural life(I think he´s from London).
One of my favourite parts of World´s End was that Pegg and Frost switched roles for this one.
I don’t know. I think it just made sense to set them in sleepy countrysides. It makes a change from the big Blockbuster type zombie flicks too.
Yeah, I think that bothered a lot of people but I liked it.

Turns out Episode 8 was broadcast heavily edited. No wonder I was so confused.

Oh wow. That’s a lot of significant cuts. So yeah, that no doubt made it confusing! And much less impactful - now you’ve reminded me that scene where the molester is being beaten up was pretty shocking.
That’s a handy website though. They also seem to suggest the finale will be heavily cut too
unless that’s translated a bit strangely.
No, that´s what it means. At this point it´s just a a guess, though.

I have watched the uncutted version and I felt quite uncomfortable, indeed.

Haha! I don’t think I’ve seen that episode somehow.
Enjoy the finale 
It´s an old episode where he is an ace piano player only when he´s really drunk.
