Netflix continues to rule...
Your television set has been taken over by order of the Peeky F****** Blinders. Birmingham 1919 and this family want to rule the world. When ambitious head of the family, Thomas Shelby, returns home from the war, he wants the world to know that he intends to take charge. Wanting to get the family business into a legitimate bookmaking empire, Thomas finds himself locking horns with gangs up and down the country, all the time being pursued by a straighter than thou police officer who enforces the law with an iron fist. Clashing gang wars, street fights and some very colourful characters, this show is set for superstardom as it continues to keep audiences captivated with brute force and a strong political presence. Great show and keeps getting better.

Fantastic!
I won this remote in a smashbomb giveaway and I could not be any more grateful!!! My parents already have one Roku Television & I gave this other remote to them for the second tv that they had in their home and now they can have a wide variety of shows, movies, etc. at their fingertips throughout their own little home! They live in an area where it is hard to get cable, and the installation is incredibly expensive so this works wonders for them! Especially since it can be linked to a Netflix! They are loving life! Sometimes it really is the little things! Thank you again so much! Hooking this up literally took 10-15 minutes! Easy breezy!

So, I thought for this review i would make up some new words to expand your vocabulary.... but let's be serious, I'm a lazy reviewer. So, plot.... Alex and his friends get drunk on milk and go on an escapade. They befriend a homeless man and a couple. Alex gets chastised for being a bit naughty and has a eye widening television experience. He meets up with some old friends and...... oh wait, that was the end of the movie? Well.... ok then. Why does Stanley Kubrick just... I don't think he finishes movies. He just gets to a point and goes 'yeah, I'm done now'. Overall, interesting watch. One to show your friends.

The move to Netflix pretty much destroyed this show. (0 more)
Arrested Development was a beautiful cult television right up until it was picked up by Netflix. It is dry, witty comedy and hosts some of the best one liners in TV history.

Tobias Funke is quite possibly my spirit animal.

However season 4 was filmed differently as the cast all had commitments when they came back together. Even though the directors recut this to make it similar to the others (which improved it considerably) the plot still didn't hold up to the rest of the previous seasons.

By season 5 it was just a mess. The cast look tired and the aftermath of that awful New York Times article can be felt.

Just watch the first three seasons guys.
