Watching Night Agent 2 at the moment. It's pretty awful - an absolute mess but have invested too much time to stop watching it now.

I saw one review that said "Watch Night Agent 1 and forget Night Agent 2 exists" think that sums it up well.

I really enjoyed both Night Agents. I did however leave any sense of disbelief at the door, they are ridiculous but good corny fun that are easily binged so the whole thing is over quite quick.

Right. Need a steer (see what I did there) on Yellowstone.

Is it badly acted garbage with plot holes you could drive a herd of cattle through, designed to appeal to MAGA voting Americans who'd like to think that all problems can be solved with fists and guns, and that the Injuns should know their place?

Or is it a beautifully shot, escapist version of Succession with cows and a female character with the best one liners since Roman Roy?

I am 5 episodes in. It is beautifully shot, the acting is okay, lots of cows and some good one liners. A lot of violence in it too... I think it'll appeal to MAGA republicans over the liberals more.

Absolute stacks to like about the forthcoming Stephen Graham drama, Adolescence.
The hard-hitting series brings together the director of Boiling Point and co-writer of The Virtues.

Adolescence tells the dark story of a family whose lives are turned upside-down when 13-year-old Jamie (Owen Cooper) is arrested on suspicion of murdering a teenage girl who attends his school.

His father, Eddie (Stephen Graham), is chosen as the boy's appropriate adult, which is a legal term for someone over 18 years old who is allowed to support a child being held in custody.

Top Boy star Ashley Walters will also play a key role in Adolescence as DI Luke Bascombe, who will be tasked with piecing together the truth of the horrific case.

Adolescence is directed by Philip Barantini, whose culinary nightmare Boiling Point (also starring Graham) earned acclaim for its presentation as a single continuous shot.

The filmmaker is building on this success with Adolescence, where each of the four episodes will borrow the same filming technique, which Netflix hopes will keep the "focus on the main characters and the unparalleled drama as it unfolds in real time".

Promises to be pretty fantastic.

Enjoyed Zero Day on Netflix. Even at 81, Robert de Niro's still got it.
