Banter RDT CLXXXVIII - Big Weather

Good luck. Found last week and especially my first day back so challenging.

Mate, first day back blues get seem to get worse with age. I'm looking forward to retirement just so I don't have to deal with them anymore.

Did I say you said it was a new concept?

I was just pointing out it offers nothing new in terms of story.

Well, I beg to differ and I'm sorry to disappoint you, try 'Cut Throat Bill' for a possible thrill? Kind of similar though, they might have to rewrite history to create a new narrative, that wild-west frontier is a well worn trail...of littered bodies, hopes, dreams and narratives?

Speaking of TV, has anyone else binged Squid Game yet?

Thought it was a good follow up effort.

Was a good follow up, a bit more humour still with plenty of dark moments… I defy anyone who can get the mingle game song out of their head…

I watched American Primeval in one sitting yesterday.

I love watching that particular time of history so I was a very easy watch for me.

That's recent one's and just off the top of my head - all with a unique story. Unsure how historically accurate you believe this one to be really, in the end it's just another work of fiction with a frontier backdrop. And if it's from the same people that made The Revenant (which I like) then they're just reusing their own narrative anyway.

Just pointing out that they seem to be trying to pretend they're providing new content by masking a tired story with ultra-violence. Don't need to take it personally. And I'm still watching the f*cken thing anyway.
