Very true. I think my coworker just had a soft spot for Jamie since he was raising his brothers.

Maybe they'll do a spinoff that tells us who got Sully.


Man, would be nice to have a spin off, they can’t kill this too boy franchise just yet, I mean doesn’t even feel like it peaked yet

Finished Top Boy. I watched it with English subtitles. The terminology is broken English. Terms like wagwan is a greeting for what's going on. Say no more means, I understand. Bell me means, call me. Food means drugs. There are many more terms I had to google to get a meaning. The outcome was partially expected. 1 to 10 scale I give it 7.5.


I watch it with subs too. I love the British slang.

Have to stay educated. Don't want to be a "wasteman". While I'm making my "P"s. "Swear down" "bruv".

Did you watch every season? 5 in total. On Netflix it is Top Boy: Summerhouse (2 seasons). Than Top Boy (3 seasons).

I give it an 8.5.


Yep. Watch Summerhouse and Top Boy. Took me a minute to figure out what was going on to make 5 seasons. Glad Jaq made it.


Ya she was my favorite. Close 2nd is Sully.
I'm the type of guy who loves rooting for anti-heroes too. And despite all the crap Dushane and Sully did. I empathized and rooted for them from start to finish.

What did you think of Jamie? My coworker was upset with how things ended up for him.

I was fairly confident when I watched it that it was Jaq..based on her trademark walk.

The show ultimately could not bounce back from Jamie dying.

This season was just a continuation of sorts. Weird last season. Just typing up loose ends.

They definitely ended it too soon - could have done way more. You’d have to think a spin off is coming of sorts.

Has any one seen the series Shottas. I think Top Boy is a spinoff from it. Click on Paul Campbell to see the entire cast.

Cast Shottas. LINK

Last season was soooo good. Tough to top it.

I love how they built up Juan all season long through Jamie's eyes. Juan was some scary monster.
Then when Sully entered the picture, the true apex predator was revealed.
Damn Sully is a bad bad man!

Have you watched the series? If you have Prime Video watch it there. I think you may be able to google and watch it online. There are a lot of similarities. Shottas wiki

Just binged the first 4 episodes of Morning Show Season 3.

Its a good watch. Jon Hamm is on it now. Filling up some of the screen time that was opened up from Steve Carell's departure.

So far, I think I like S3 even more than the first 2 seasons.

The morning show is a good series. Alex searching for a path to independence, Bradley dealing with her sexuality, and Cory's got to go down, he's a snake. I was surprised by how quickly Steve Carell was removed. There are a lot of characters with interesting storylines.

Gave up on Morning Show after the first season. No particular reason it was decent but I never bothered to continue. Maybe I will now.

I feel ya. I was dragging my feet on watching season 3 as well. Just wasn’t motivated. But it’s definitely one of those binge-able shows. Watching 1 episode turns into watching the whole season, real quick.

I enjoyed Ahsoka. But I wouldn't call it great.

The first episode of Loki Season 2 was great. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

If the wife could just stop watching love is blind maybe I could finally get to watch the new season of Lupin. I enjoyed the first season thoroughly and although season 2 was a bit weaker it’s still a fun watch.

Yes and no? Hard to answer. Put it this way, if I go in the other room to watch something else I have to hear the “you never spend time with me” line. So yeah basically 1 TV.

Binging The Fall of the House of Usher. It's alright so far.

Really enjoyed this monologue. "When life hands you lemons..."

Stallone was made for the part. From what I've read season 2 will be delayed because of the actors and writer strikes. I haven't been able to find a definitive start date.

Watched and finished “Under the Banner of Heaven” starring Andrew Garfield. 7 episodes. Dragged on..it’s based on a true story and a book apparently. Starts off strong but falls off. Barely got through it. There’s just way better stuff like this to watch instead.
