Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
Not on TV, but we recently watched Greenland on Saturday, and that was fabulous! Kinda funny that local terestrial TV station is going to air that movie this Saturday 

Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
Still enjoying
Ozark.
Better than 'Better Call Saul', still deciding.. ..... ..
Edit: Yes I think Ozark is better but I better watch 'Better Call Saul' again to be sure here.

Keep Sweep: Pray and Obey
Chilling insight into Warren Jeffs and FLDS Church. Final episode tonight, I think it will be tough watch given the way it's been heading. Worth a watch, though.

Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
Just finished Ozark. Really great show. Laura Linney should win awards for her performance. Apparently Julia Garner has already won some Emmys, which is also well deserved…
Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
I am still there at Ozark Season 4 Episode 7

Finished Ozark. Well worth it and I'd say on a par with Better Call Saul & Breaking Bad

Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
The Sandman on Netflix. Binged 5 of the 10 episodes yesterday.
Never read the comics or anything else by Gaiman.
I like it. Interesting worldbuilding and plot. Mostly a fast but pleasent pace. Great set pieces, camera, lighting, acting... Yeah, overall 8/10.

Star Wars: Andor
Slow to start (episodes 1 & 2) but develops nicely. Into episode 4 now and the role played by Stellan Skarsgård well, brilliant
Edit: Cliffhanger at the end of Ep 5 so can't wait for 6

Mr Inbetween
Pretty fun show, different format that's for sure. Love the main actor, didn't realize he also writes it. Love those Australian shows for some reason.

The main actor, Scott Ryan, he's pretty good in his craft I'd say''.... so I found he has an earlier 'mockumentary' named The Magician from 2005. It took me a while to grab it, so if you can find it, you should enjoy this earlier work.

Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
Very cool, will need to check it out.
Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
I watched The Peripheral. It looked promising with an interesting set up. The source material should be good (I haven't read the book, but William Gibson is a well regarded scifi writer) and the involvement of Westworld creators sounded promising too.
Unfortunately I felt the series was a bit lackluster. The characters aren't very relatable, the reasons for why they do the things they do are vague at best and a lot of stuff happens for no reason at all.
I had hoped the series would dive more into ethical dilemmas that are a result of the plot of the series, but it's not really much about that.
I can't really recommend the series if you already have a backlog of stuff to watch. If you're bored, however, and got some time to kill, then it's entertaining enough I guess.

Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
I watched season 1 of Ozark. Pretty good, but not worthy of the enormous praise I've seen everyone give it. But, I also understand seasons 2 and 3 are going to be much better, so I will be marching on into season 2 soon.

Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
First half of Season 2 of Picard is decent, much better than season 1, but at some point they introduce too much bullshit and it devolves into trash. A real shame. I hope they can deliver a full season that's good with season 3
Re: Currently watching..... on the TV
Better watch S02 ASAP.
Checking, asking Google the question - 'star trek picard season 3 release date' ...

So the end of Picard :tear:Star Trek Picard season 3 officially has a release date of February 16, 2023. From there onwards, the season's 10 episodes will continue to air weekly on Thursdays. The tenth and final episode of the season will be the final episode of Star Trek Picard.
