The format of season 2 really changes has they stopped going thru the races chronogically. They start to jump around a lot between episodes. Don't expect much out of Ferrari or Mercedes. The Netflix teams gets access to Ferrari and Mercedes for only 1 weekend each.

I visited my mother today and found out she's become addicted to Midsomer Murders. 

It's like the ultimate mom show.

It's insane how popular that show is overseas. I had a friend who lived in the Balkans for a while and apparently it's huge over there. I just add it to my view that a large part of what makes for "Britishness" in many people's minds is what sells overseas: period dramas and cosy murder mysteries.

Midsomer kind of defines the mouthbreather tier of British murder mysteries.

Yeah, they show that accident right at the start of the episode focused on him, as the beginning of his self-confidence issues.

Well, they already jump a bit back and forth in the first season, but I guess I'll see what you mean when I start with the 2nd season. It's a pity if Ferrari and Mercedes don't feature much, but I guess that a little is better than nothing at all.

It's been a while, I had forgot that.

Saw on Twitter that a recent Simpsons episode had a reference that probably a small percentage of viewers get, but people around here might appreciate it:

Mr Burns: Hmm. Smithers, I'm a hero. Like that guy who landed the plane safely.
Smithers: Sully Sullenberger?
Mr Burns: No, no, no, no. Rudolf Hess.

Thunder Force. Pretty funny at times.

[garbon]

I was underwhelmed. I thought it was okay but really failed to be as funny as it could have been.

[Josquius]

It's funniest moments came when it was mocking how crap it was. Overall very poor

It becomes really obvious between season 3, where the editing is a bit sloppy and they actually repeat bits of dialogue from earlier episodes. Really good series though even for someone with minimal interest in F1.

That is comedy gold.
