Dunno if mentioned on here but i have been enjoying "Sweet Tooth" on netflix, based on a graphic novel, end of world type thing but it's quite gentle, other than half of the world dying....

I’ve come across the series 24 on Disney+ with Kiefer Sutherland, I’d never previously heard of it. It ran from 2001 to 2010. A ludicrous plot and impossible timeline, plus it feels a bit dated with annoying background music.

Yet I’m lured in and like it.

24 was great but the later ones do jump the shark and - spoiler - starts that god awful trend of bringing people back to life from the dead.

That said, I think I watched them all. Much better than watching all the "Losts"

I remember waiting a week when it was on Sunday nights back in the day. The first 12 episodes were fantastic.

I’m binge watching season 1, 7.5 hours in!

The Darkness , a new Icelandic thriller adapted from the books of Ragnar Jónasson, has its first trailer.

Sky Showtime is showing the six-part series, which is set in Reykjavik, among the isolated fjords.

The story – the first in his Hulda series – follows Detective Inspector Hulda Hermannsdóttir (Lena Olin), who is given two weeks, before retirement to solve the cold case of a young Russian woman, whose body washes up on an Icelandic shore. Hulda discovers that another young woman vanished at the same time, and that no one is telling her the whole story. Even her colleagues in the police seem determined to put the brakes on her investigation.

It’s an English-language and will show on Sky Showtime across the Nordic regions from 1st November.
