It kind of continues to plod at a similar pace really. If you've enjoyed the 6 episodes to date you'll probably want to stick with it. Season 2 picks up the pace a little and becomes more complex if I remember correctly. Slightly bizarre at times too. Overall we enjoyed it but if you didn't already know, it was scheduled to run into 5 or 6 seasons but was dropped after season 2Have watched 1st 6 episodes of The OA. Think it is ok but very very slow. Think what I have watched so far could have been fitted into an hour and a half. Is it worth continuing?

North Water is strong though (AMC can churn some quality out).

Not usually a fan of UK TV drama's but Manhunt is brilliant. Watched both series in one sitting.

Just finished squid game. Ending was crap in my opinion, really crap, rest of the series bar one episode (the marble episode that went on and on) was good. A lot of really annoying things in it though. without getting into spoiler territory, my biggest grievance is they play a game in big groups, all groups are even and half the players survive yet the next game there's less than the number that should be there given half had to win and this is never explained which given the show has that Asian trait of feeling the need to over explain absolutely everything in excessive detail as if they're speaking to a toddler is really annoying to me.

I gave up half way through, Absolute shite. Same goes for the other pile of steaming shit that I just watched.Just finished squid game.

Midnight mass. Do yourself a favour and don't watch it.

On ep 4 midnight mass, turned it off seemed to be going nowhere and was boring me.

First 5 or 6 episodes are good and build well, I really enjoyed them. Then it suffers what all netflix shows suffer from, when they find out they are getting a second season, it starts to stretch and save material and plant seeds for more, out of nowhere. Finishes well, overall, S1 is decent enough and worth a watch imo.
S2 however, is fucking awful. Then it gets cancelled, for being so shit. Wouldn't bother with it, end at S1.
