Just finished "Slow Horses" on Apple. Really good spy stories with a bit of a twist. Oldman is awesome.

Just finished Vice Principals on Max. If you enjoy Righteous Gemstones, you would like this show. Honestly made me laugh pretty much every episode. You do have to overlook that it isn't anything like an actual school but that didn't matter to me.

anyone else watching the new Matlock? very well written. I don't get into network TV often but really loving this show. Also Tim Allen's new show shifting gears is good too.

I started rewatching Twin Peaks from the beginning. I don't have anything new or insightful to say except when Lynch wanted to be funny he could be very funny. And scary. And genuinely affecting.

 

Looking forward to getting back to The Return as well.

New to the thread...

Ghosts is funny. My wife and I watched it in its entirety in about a week and a half. Fans of that should check out The Decameron. Similarly driven by funny characters in a ridiculous setting. I think I actually preferred The Decameron.

Watched the rom-dramedy from down-undah, "Colin from Accounts". Excellent show. Interesting that it was a husband/wife duo who created it, wrote every episode, and starred in it. Their chemistry is palpable.

Loved Vice Principals, hilarious.

I watched this series for the first time a couple years ago and actually hated it.  I stuck with it though, and even watched the reboot, which was horrendous.

I know that show has a lot of fans, I'm not one of them.

My wife and I just rewatched Freaks and Geeks.  I missed a lot of episodes the first time around.

Outstanding show.  Cancelling after just one season was a crime.

You deserved better, Bill Haverchuck.

Joe Pickett on Paramount+ is pretty awesome!

Easy to binge as most shows end with a cliffhanger, and you feel the need to see what happens next!

Some good shows on right now- Reacher and White Lotus both in Season 3. Severance Season 2

Severance is one of the few shows since Game of Thrones that has me counting down the days until the next episode releases. Is it Thursday yet?

It’s a great show. I should have gone back and rewatched Season 1 because of the length of time between seasons.  I have forgotten some things but I’m really enjoying this Season.

I had so many people say Severance was great last year. My GF and I gave it so many episodes but just couldn't get into it.

Sounds weird, but you have to get to the season 1 finale.

The last 3 or 4 episodes of the season really start paying off the groundwork of the first half of the season.

But as with any show there will never be 100% popularity, everyone has different tastes.

Finished up The Agency with Michael Fassbender.  I thought it was pretty good.

Reacher Season 3 was ok.  Sort of the same old same old.

Almost done with Night Agent Season 2.

Perhaps Daredevil and Andor next...?

Mobland - Tom Hardy organized crime show on Paramount. I'm enjoying it. Guy Ritchie is involved, so it has his vibe.

The Eternaut -  Netflix sci-fi show from Argentina. It's based on a comic book. It took a weird turn during the 4th episode, but I am enjoying a new twist on dystopian survival.

It's been great (minus the first episode). I have to watch with subtitles on and do not understand all of the slang.

Squid Game had a great ending....and then they continued the show for another 20 minutes.

I started watching Season 2 and lost interest. Is it worth watching till the end?

I really liked the last 6 episodes (which is I guess season 3) of the series. I thought season 2 was meh.
