renew such a good look
my new girl (jesus i posted about watching it with my old girl) watched the first episode and didn't want to watch the rest but really liked the second two
It's not really related at all, apart from it being good Uk tv you probably haven't seen, but I recommend this new series Utopia to anyone who likes dark, left of center, drama. It's well written, got a great cast and it looks beautiful for a relatively low budget tv show.
Haven't even heard of it, where is it shot?
There's a new comedy on BBC 4 shot not too far from me, where some friends and family are, that's supposed to be good.
White Bear was a weird episode. I'm wondering if it's some kind of riff on the common purpose/joint enterprise doctrine and the media's relationship with sensationalising crimes and people's hunger to spectate. The whole set-up is unfortunately believable, and as guilty as the woman is (or at least presented as), society's readiness to wallow in further misery is damning too.
It's a bit like the advice about gun killers - the media shouldn't give them coverage, to stop copycats the guilty should be out of sight. Of course it's the opposite that happens. And how much is the media then part of a common purpose.
Awesome!! Thanks for posting. Black Mirror was one of the best shows I have seen in some years..... Gone Girl was a cool read! Glad to see Fincher will be doing that as well. Has anyone watched the BBC show yet?

I've been watching Utopia as well. There were some scenes in that first eps that were pretty disturbing.
Looking forward to watching and see where the show goes.

Anyway, looking forward to next week's episode.
