Had to switch this off. Dreadful soppy love story - not my cup of tea (or the missus!!)

The world would be pretty boring if we all liked the same thing :-)

It’s amazing, one of the best character based drama‘s that I’ve seen

it’s one of them that leaves a hole when you finish it , kind of like finishing a really good book

Thomas Alfredo Romano. Episode 3, what a way to go. Ha ha, gross. Each episode is like the beginning of Casualty.

The French series “The Bureau” -does anybody vouch for it?

Non!!

End of series 2 of the fall and it’s all gone a bit bat shit crazy and unbelievable. Not sure why they need an extra episode and also 90 minutes long when not a lot happened. Feels a bit like they know it’s good so decided to drag out another series when it’s hard to see how the story goes anywhere from here.

Well worth it. Watched all 50 episodes during the lockdown. Starts off slowly but gets better and better.

Just finished the second series of Money Heist. I've really enjoyed it. Some of it far fetched but it wasn't ridiculous.

Tokyo gets all the male attention but Raquel, the detective is gorgeous.

I have just watched "The Last Narc", on Amazon. It concerns murder of DEA agent Kiki Camarena. Some of you may already have Narcos Mexico, on Netflix. Both are excellent. However the former raises some questions and is the beginning off rather than end of the story.
Also the documentary called "The Frank Matthews Story " is well worth a view.

It goes the distance. Stick with it!!

It's been highly recommended on here before. I'm still trying to find it.

First two seasons are free on Prime. I used a nefarious source for the rest.

I think I have found 1, 2, 4 & 5 on a dodgy site (arrrrr, Jim lad) It shows on my Prime as being available on Sundance channel (have to pay extra).
If you have a source for se03, please let me know.

Must be different licensing for regions/countries. 3,4 and 5 are sundance here too but you get 7 days free trial. It'd take some doing to get through it in a week though

It gets more ridiculous the further you get in. Some of the plot-holes are the size of Harry Maguire's head.

Harry Maguire's head must be their maximum size.
Any bigger than that and their gravitational forces would be so overwhelming that they'd collapse inwards under their own forces to form a black hole of super dense matter, and then sit there sucking the positivity out of the surrounding universe like a whirlpool to hell.

Just to get 'on topic'.
I'm currently watching season 1 of Underbelly, an Aussie crime drama TV series that was based on real life crime events. Season 1's been great so far and there are 6 available seasons. I'm sure that many here will have watched them or tried to, but I still thought it worthy of a recommendation.
It's like a hybrid of The Soprano's crossed with a bit of The Bill, with a smidgen of Breaking Bad and a dash of Z Cars sprinkled on top.

It is different mate. I get 30 days free trial with sundance but my Mum has only gone and signed up to it without knowing what she was doing. It doesn't pay to share things with your Mum. ; )

Dark s3. 15 minutes into e1 and my heads already hurting.

@FCBarca does it unravel and become understandable? 2 episodes in and it’s almost impossible to understand what’s happening between the timelines and what seems multiple dimensions now.

Honestly, I have yet to get past episode 1 - had the feel of having lost its way & simply continued to add misdirection that couldn't be supported by the original premise. I'll come back to it eventually but I would say it left me less interested in the series

Glad it isn’t only me then. I’m on e3 and I genuinely don’t have a clue what’s going on.

Best shows recently have been Dark and The Boys, imo

Anyone seen them and think there's anything better atm?

About to give Raised By Wolves a go. Accidentally played episode 2 and there was a war scene that looked really intriguing
