[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Two you might think as abit rubbbish but which I'm really enjoying -

October Faction - Grimm-type series but a bit more thought provoking
Burden of Truth - Not as good or as edgy as Goliath but an easy watch and grows into itself.

 

[Palacefinder General]

Yeah, it's a light-hearted drama and fun to watch. The lead actor is excellent (I'm surprised not to have seen him in other things). Maybe someone will pick up a 2nd series sometime.

Only a few episodes to do now, really excellent stuff, very strange it got dropped, and as you say, maybe a series 2 may one day happen. Colin Salmon as well, who’d have thought it?

That almost made sense

Anyone seen the kiwi comedy/drama/comedy series The Almighty Johnsons? Actually had me guffawing out loud, but I'm easily amused

Yes, thoroughly enjoyed this.

It’s a leap year.

Recommendation for Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet (comedy) on Apple TV which was released 10 days ago.

Co-created by Charlie Day and Rob McElhenney of Always Sunny in Philadelphia and starring Rob McElhenney, F. Murray Abraham, etc... about a computer gaming company. It has Always Sunny... (obvs) and Silicon Valley influences in narrative and style of humour.

As a big Always Sunny... fan I was always likely to enjoy this one and it may not be for everyone, but it is getting good reviews generally.

Anyone watched Jett with Carla Gugino ? It all sounds a bit cheesy (high end thief get released from prison and struggles to keep on the straight and narrow whilst bringing up her daughter), but actually there isn't a single slice of cheese in sight and its really good and a pretty grown up crime drama. Highly recommended - on Sky at the moment.

I can’t see it mentioned, but Narcos Mexico season2 is now on Netflix

Really enjoyed all the Narcos.

I really enjoyed it, especially episode 6 when they dance to Yma Sumac.

Cant be arsed to see if this series has been mentioned before, "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" on Amazon. We decided to give this a go a couple of weeks ago and it has turned out to be quite amusing after a slow start. Seems popular, as it has had 3 seasons and S4 is in production.

Really enjoyed all the Narcos.

Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou for the reminder.

We watched Uncut Gems (movie) on Friday night. Terrible movie, wish I could get those 2 hours back, no idea how/why I didn't turn it off after the first 10 minutes.

I can’t see it mentioned, but Narcos Mexico season2 is now on Netflix

Really enjoyed all the Narcos.

Managed to watch it over the last few days. Excellent and did not disappoint. Impatiently waiting for series three now

 

[Is it PotG?]

Not US, but been mentioned on here before.

After the brilliant Lake District, Italy then Spain......now Greece gets the Coogan/Brydon treatment.

Starts in March.

Enjoying Mindhunter on Netflix

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

A new series called 'Hunters' with Al Pacino starts today on Amazon Prime.

It's based on true events about a group of Nazi Hunters in New York in the 70s tracking down escaped Nazis living in the USA

 

[Weststander]

Currently watching Justifed on Amazon Prime, now into the second season. It’s about a modern day US Marshall in rural Kentucky, dealing with various criminals, he’s also in two on-off relationships.

I love it, and the main character.

Nothing about this is obscure but just to say Seinfeld is now available on Channel 4's version of I-Player.
