The more I think about The Gentlemen the better I liked it. Set up for a good second season at the very least!

This is a niche one... and not really a recommendation as such unless you're a x-men nerd like i am but when i was a kid, i used to love watching the X-men annimated series in the mornings before school. I have great memories of sitting around with my Dad and watching it together.
New animated X-Men 97 series just released it's first two eps on Disney, it picks up immediately from where the series left off. My kids and i watched the old series together via Disney a few years ago, and last night i got to sit with them and watch the eps with them. Was really cool to have it come full circle now.

As for the series itself... i really liked it, but it has to be REALLLY bad for me to dislike anything X-Men. So if you love that **** like i do, give a whirl :lol:

I’m dying to watch X-Men 97. It was my gateway to the X-Men story thanks to Cheez TV.

I’m planning to bank them up and potentially use them as my FuiBub feeding / burping show
Feel free to call me RickyRicky StickStick if you like. I will also accept Super Fui, King Brad, Kid Dynamite, Chocolate-Thunda... or Brad.

Yeah nice, I didn’t realise the OG series was on Disney + either, so I’ll add them to the burping list

I’m really enjoying Mr Bates v the Post Office. An excellent British dramatised true story on 7 plus. Reminds me of Robodebt.

The streaming service plethora of adverts are ridiculous however.
