Watched the first 2 episodes. Equally funny and violent. Reminded me of Breaking Bad. I don't think it's available in the UK yet so you'll have to find other ways.

[Bigg Bigg Blue]

Me and Mrs. Biggie have finished binge watching Wolf and really enjoyed it.
Great twist at the end.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Just finished episode 2 of 'The Sixth Commandment'

Its heartbreaking and also disturbing.

Timothy Spall is excellent.

Yes agreed.
I watched a crime documentary on it quite recently too.
Very disturbing as you say.

I've been trying to watch Yellowjackets S02. Enjoyed the first series, but can't get into the second series, I'll finish watching it out of spite though (it's not going to defeat me).

No, I've never watched it so that's two of us mate

Up to Season 3 of Smallville. It's super. Idiotic but super.

Watched the lot years ago
Enjoyed it

Need something new to watch. I think I have watched everything worth seeing.
Started into my back up stuff last night and decided it all looked crap.
Endeavour, Lucky Hank, Madam Secretary, The Company you keep, The Patient, Joe Pickett.
Edit. Just saw that The Crowded Room has finished. That's next on the list.

Not sure if your into crime or police series
But the wire and Bosch are fantastic series.

The writer says she kept half of what actually happened to the poor saps out of the show in respect for the families.

 

[denislawsbackheel]

No, I've never watched it so that's two of us mate

Nor me

 

[Bigg Bigg Blue]

Nor me

I can see this group growing very fast.

I enjoyed Madam Secretary and look forward to season 2. Madam Secretary is a mix of drama (mostly) and comedy; the plot is somewhat unbelievable; but the actors are great and the characters they portray are memorable.

Madam Secretary: 7/10.

If you haven't watched it yet, I'd recommend Patriot. It's a dark comedy about an assassin hired by the US government and boasts some hilarious scenes. It's mostly drama though - and over time, the main character grows on you and you begin to empathize with the terrible life he's been forced into.

The humor in Patriot is something you'll either love or hate. Here's two examples:

In this first clip, listen to the made up technical jargon. It's hilarious. Our protagonist - Lakeman - has recently been hired by this company as an undercover sales agent and he's got to catch up with the lingo. Lakeman's expression at the conclusion of the speech is priceless.


In this second clip, Lakeman's boss, Leslie Claret, has been so upset by goings-ons that he's started snorting cocaine. Here, Leslie is attending a session to help deal with his addiction.


Patriot: 9.5/10

Been watching Station Eleven. I read 'Sea of Tranquility' earlier this year by the same author and really liked that so decided I'd take the plunge with this.

Post-apocalyptic show after a flu virus wipes out a shitload of the world population (written before the Covid pandemic, though).

5 episodes watched. Its weird and fragmented. Slow to start but I really like it.
