Back from the dead but finally decided to give Peaky Blinders a shot and im pretty blown away by the sets, tailoring / costumes and music. Those along with the story and acting make it great.

I gave it a half hour to start then three episodes and I'll be finishing it soon enough.

Check out Top Boy on netflix although if you dont understand the East London cockney/yardie slang you may have no idea what they are talking about.

I used to love learning new slang when bartending.  It definitely helped with transplanted coworkers and visiting guests. Also helped confusing locals and friends.

When an account is so poorly done and humorless that it sounds like a bot.

Hahaha.

Tbh, I started to watch Peaky Blinders and thought at first, solid show - costumes, language and storyline. But then I got bored somehow and what put me off a little bit was the gypsy clichee theme running in the background, you know, clans, violence, horses, the whole package of what whiteys think about travelling people.

Watch, like and subscribe, so that Netflix can buy Season 2 with some fresh tanks or anti-aircraft guns.

Better to watch it on Netflix though, in hopes the network are paying Zelenskyy’s business.   He created the production company Kvartal 95, which produced films, cartoons, and TV shows including the TV series Servant of the People, in which Zelenskyy played the role of the Ukrainian president.

And even if you don't follow formula 1 (I barely do), the Drive to Survive doc series on Netflix is really good.

Not an F1 watcher, but clicked into this show after a couple of other people also recommended it.  Super addictive series - they push the drama a bit, but it just makes it more engaging.

The Righteous Gemstones is hilarious.  I just found out there is a second season.
