Ditto but not sure if I'll continue.

Let us know how you get on please

I've given up part way through the third episode. It reminded me a little of Neil Gaiman's American Gods (the film, not the book which is great), but not quite as unwatchable.

Jeff Goldblum was quite enough to put me off even trying it.

I’ve just finished watching the 4 part police drama called the Tower, shown on ITV - I’d recommend it for viewing.

Great reviews too. I'll watch, I'm still not bored with police procedurals. Just as well, that's half of what's on TV!

Just found this little gem.

The Champions
TV Series
2018–
TV-MA

Animated comedy show that imagines the Champions League stars living together in a giant mansion, reality show style.

Each episode is only about 4 mins long. The parodies are hilarious especially Harry Kane :naughty:

Couldn't find it on any download sites but all 7 seasons can be viewed on You Tube.
Here's ep1 as a taster.

Slow Horses is back with season 4, just as good as ever.

UNBELIEVABLE (Netflix 2019)

Just rewatched after 5 years. Very very good indeed.

One of the best things I've ever seen from the Netflix platform.

Deals with the difficult subject of rape victims.

8.5/10

Not for me I'm afraid.

The final episode of The Grand Tour is now available at the usual places, the three have now parted ways as Clarkson is creaming it in from his farm show!

Kaos has been very quirky but have persevered with it for lack of much else about at the moment.

Have also been watching and enjoying Shōgun.

What a coincidence, I was about to watch Season 1 again just for something to watch

Think I may do anyway

Thanks

Just realised I had this on my hard drive since last year. Binged it yesterday, excellent. I'll grab all the second season when it's finished airing.

All good stuff - have enjoyed both shows. Might just revisit Season 1 of "The Old Man" to remind myself!! :thumb:
