Yes! I was reading about the suit last night after we finished the show. Not sure I can stomach Piers Morgan for an hour, but I am very curious about what she has to say. Thanks @IH-GARY

great opening scene

Minor spoiler alert, but I did get quite excited by this image on my TV screen!

Watched the first 2 episodes yesterday with the boy
Enjoyed it immensely

[Giles]

paula and I thought that this was absolutely stunning. Gave us so much insight into D Day and what it was like for both sides....

@Giles A few years ago Bonnie and I took the all day D-Day tour in Normandy. Just an incredible,informative and as you said eye opening experience.

Strong 1st ep of The Boys S4. Always delivers.

[endo]

oh Boys, love them, so excited

[MQR]

pretty rewarding weekend got 3 eps of The Boys SE4

[Jett129]

Thought this was pretty funny. For fans of The Bear.

Anyone watched this? Wonder what you're thinking about it. I'm not a football fan and find it very entertaining. Like an IRL sequel to Ted Lasso. Or is it too much cliché, too American? The enthusiasm is quite catchy at least.

@Jett129 - it may be heretical to say this but (tin hat on) I just don’t ‘get’ The Bear. I have tried to like it but just cannot get into it. I suspect that I am in a minority of one though.

[Brian]

@endo watched it all and loved it a rags to riches to riches story and knowing how bad the club was before they needed the boost can’t let the son watch it due to the manager / coach and his fondness of the fuck fucking

[endo]

what the fuck do you mean?

@Crispy-Heron I don’t think it’s an especially easy show to get into. It’s pretty chaotic and unsettling and hard to figure out what’s going on and who’s who. Not sure why we persevered,but we did,watched the second season,went back and rewatched the first season. When we rewatched the first season it seemed to slow down,and you were able to pick up on things that you may have missed the first time around. I,know…Seems like a lot to do for a TV show. We had nothing else to watch at the time or maybe we would’ve bailed as well.

@GraemeE yes so good. If you want to go deeper listen to the podcast Love is the Message

[GraemeE]

@Nik I've listened to a few episodes of that one and loved it - need to get back to it.

+1

I refuse to watch it. The dude has a punchable face and I find celebrity kitchen culture to be contrived and uninteresting.

@Matt - don’t mind the guy playing the main character but I just don’t understand why it is popular. Perhaps as @Jett129 says it needs more than one watch but I was left completely cold by it. Critics appear to love it although I note that there is a backlash against series 3.
