What Ewe Watching

[Pegojack]

I read all the Bosch books before the tv series and the problem I had was not the mixing of the books but the changing of events from the books themselves. His wife, for example has a different relationship with him, I think, in the series.
If you’ve not read any of the books, which are superb, the series as a standalone is excellent. I have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed the tv series also.
Just to add that Titus Welliver is not far off what I imagined Bosch to be like and he did a great job with the part.
And one of the best parts was the jazz. Suited the mood every time.

The actor which fitted my mental image of Bosch from the novels the best was Ed Harris, but I'm OK with Welliver.

Just finished Andor and Goliath, both thoroughly enjoyable!

Looking forward to watching Mobland very soon, saw a trailer the other day, and it look's pretty decent.

Agree about Grace, especially the bloke who plays Branson, not so much his looks as the whole feel of the character.
Then again, if Tom Cruise can play Jack Reacher I can play Miss Marple.

Ironically, David Morrissey who.plays DI Thorne in the TV adaptions of some of Mark Billingham's books, is exactly how I imagined Grace to look like

I need to watch more TV.

Lol actually I realised recently how little "as broadcast" TV I do watch these days. Apart from the football it's pretty minimal I'd say. I seem to spend more time watching stuff on YouTube

I'm not really a fan of gangster tv yet I had a look at Mobland on Paramount and have actually stopped scrolling on my phone to watch it.

It seems to me that Tom Hardy always plays what is essentially the same character but I'm ok with it as he's just so damned watchable.

In the week I will try and catch the weather and the news headlines at either 6pm or 10pm. On the rare occasion there is nothing to do on a Sunday I will happily binge watch footy or cricket, but that’s about it. I think it’s a sign I need to create a little more ‘me’ time.
