Agreed.

I just watched ep 1 of TNG. Stewart certainly grew as an actor.

Just finished. Only an hour but well worth it :up:

UK media article on the documentary

Formula 1: Drive to Survive

On Netflix, currently 2 seasons. I'm not interested in F1 at all, but as a series it takes you behind the lines into the politics and drama between the drivers and teams. It's absolutely fantastic.

I got done watching both Legion season 3 and Doom Patrol recently.

Not sure I like Legion S3 quite as much as S2, but it was still pretty to look at.

Doom Patrol was absolutely ace though. Highly recommended :up:
Brilliant performances all round, but it was especially great seeing (or hearing) Brendan Fraser do his thang.

On a similar note, Locke & Key on Netflix is well worth checking out too.

Watched the last episode last night. A good production I thought with story and actors doing a great job :up: I'd recommend a watch.

Next is that series Avenue 5, that Hugh Laurie space scifi comedy (I hope).
The troubled crew of Avenue 5, a space cruise ship filled with spoiled, rich, snotty space tourists, must try and keep everyone calm after their ship gets thrown off course into space and ends up needing three years to return to Earth.

Should have listened to you Captain Mazda.

Episode 5 of Avenue 5 done and have decided not to waste any more time on this one ... I thought that Hugh Laurie gave this a chance but sadly no :smirk:

A friend recommends a TV mini series The Capture so I am about to start that one :D

The Tiger King - excellent viewing for all the wrong reasons

How to Fix a Drug Scandal - Also excellent viewing and highlights some pretty naughty behaviour by the US authorities. Really interesting watch given some of the sentences handed down to the offenders and the lack of sentences or even investigations given to others

With HBO offering a handful of their programming for free these days, the lady and I have been going through Veep. Excellent watch, at least in the beginning, it does begin to drag on as you get into the final seasons.

Just started season 5 of Outlander and yes, I have probably mentioned in years past. It is still a good production.
Outlander is a historical drama television series based on the novel series of the same name by Diana Gabaldon. Developed by Ronald D. Moore, the show premiered on August 9, 2014, on Starz. It stars Caitriona Balfe as Claire Randall, a married former World War II nurse who in 1946 finds herself transported back to Scotland in 1743. There she encounters the dashing Highland warrior Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) and becomes embroiled in the Jacobite risings. The first season of the television series is based on the first novel in the series, Outlander (also known as Cross Stitch).

Tales From The Loop

Amazon Video Streaming.

Don't mind, it's kinda shite.
4/10

Trying hard to pose intellectual or phlisophical questions that have been gone through countless times. But it doesn't even care to make any explanation to the problem nor does it give hints to a solution.
Target audience is around 14, imo.
Useless

So I just finished Breaking Bad last night. I know, I’m late to the game, but the wife and I have been bingeing the last few weeks.

Anyways, obviously I thought it was way good. The last season was some of the best TV ever. The show did what most couldn’t, finished strong.

What can I say that hasn’t already been said about it? 9/10

Better Call Saul is the reason I first got Netflix. Still one of the top 3 standout shows tbh.

Is there one more season to come after the current one ends?
