    The new series of Ozark (well part 1 anyway) drops on Netflix on Friday. I actually think it’s slightly overrated, doesn’t deserve to be in the same conversation as shows like Sopranos and Breaking Bad but very much looking forward to it regardless.

    1883 on Paramount.....great start, I do like Sam Elliot in westerns.

    "Rust" also on Paramount....real gritty grimey ex steel town drama. Great acting.

    1883 is really good. Be aware the episode release is a bit sporadic.

    Enjoyed the first episode of ZeroZeroZero. 
    Binged the lot yesterday. Very good. Leaves you wanting more but also accepting closure after one season. Potential for more, though, I believe, so it will be interesting to see how it pans out.

    Quite a lot of crossover of the production teams for both this and Gomorrah. Main reason why they seem similar.
    Where do i watch this? Saw the first series, can't remember where

    Euphoria season 2 is out, loved the first season even if the content is on the darker side.

    There is only one season, mate, so sounds like you've watched it all.

    Having watched Narcos Mexico season 3, Zero Zero Zero and El Chapo recently, I got interested in Mexico's politics and drug trade. I then found a limited series about the assassination of their presidential candidate Colosio in the 1990's: Historia de un crimen: Colosio. The murder was mentioned in Narcos Mexico season 3. This series is very good. It's a 2019 Netflix production. The actor who plays El Mayo in Narcos Mexico has a big part in it. Great soundtrack too. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes series based on true events. 

    I just started to watch Snowfall yesterday. The first episode is very interesting. Has anyone watched this? Seeing as it has four or five more seasons and is still going, if it's great then I have a lot of materials to watch😂

    I was looking forward to Mayor of Kingstown but having watched two episodes I decided to give it up. I like Jeremy Renner and Kyle Chandler but simply couldn't stand the confusing way of storytelling in this series. A lot of things didn't make sense to me. And I didn't like Jeremy Renner's character. I couldn't get past episode one of Yellowstone so I guess Sheridan's work is generally not my cup of tea. 
    I picked this up yesterday and have already steamed through 8 episodes of season one. Very good so far and is building a solid base for the 3 seasons that follow (season 5 to start screening in February).

    2nd series of Cheer now on Netflix. Highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys US sports mini series like Last Chance U, QB1 etc
    Just finished watching the second series of Cheer. A lot darker than the first series given the issues it has to deal with. Incredible athleticism as in the first series.

    First episode of Ozark didn’t disappoint. Set up nicely for more barmy goings on.

    Just finished Season 6 (the final season) of The Expanse, on Amazon. Brilliant space opera, good effects, great characters. If you like sci-fi, this is a must!

    Agreed. Never warmed to James Holden at all, though. That character could have been cast better.

    Beltalowda!!!! 😁

    It’s, interesting…

    I think Monica’s attitude to the situation was a bit odd, not sure I would have let my kids be interviewed for the series had they gone through what the twins allegedly did either.

    Anyone disappointed with Trigger Point? We turned it off after about 15 minutes

    Another ITV drama with poor acting, poor storyline, where they appear to be choosing actors to tick boxes.

    What a load of tosh that was. I managed to last until the end, mainly because the remote was of of reach and I couldn’t be bothered to get up.

    Steamed through the horror series Archive 81 on Netflix, a bit silly at times, as these things often are, but I enjoyed it. The actress in the found footage reminded me of a young Keeley Hawes. Now on the second ep of the new series of Ozark.

    Good news - I binged in the first 3 seasons over a few days. Looking forward to watching this.

    bang average (no pun intended)

    The end of the first episode was so obvious, me and the missus both called it 10 minutes before

    as for the light switch - even we knew not to do that

    will persevere and hope it improves as the story develops

    I binged all seven episodes over the weekend. It’s terrific. Absolute hokum of course but brilliantly done. Expect a few surprises……

    Excellent - I’m just about to sit down and watch it now. I see there is also another 7 episodes to follow later in the year and that will be the end of it.

    we said exactly the same about the light switch, it was like she was a work experience girl shoved into the bomb squad.

    was waiting for her to step on the pressure mat by the toilet.

    will probably try next weeks to see

    Disappointing.

    Line of Duty builds up the tension, gradually. You can't do that on ITV because of the advert breaks.

    I believe he chose not to extend his contract after the death of his wife.

    they kept saying ‘shit’ and that is what it was. It was only the final two minutes that kept it alive. Will see if it improves next week.

    Same about the light switch; lost credibility early on
