Been watching Handmaid's Tale now its on Prime.
Just started season 2 but I'm still no sure about it.
New season of the Boys starts on Amazon in September, loved the first season, Karl Urban is great in it.
I’ve just finished Dark on Netflix, it’s a Germany series that’s been dubbed into English. The story line was brilliant and I really enjoyed it, but I think you lose something when you can’t hear the actors voices. I’d definitely recommend it though.
I'm going to throw in Mrs.America.
It's a bit of a slog, but it moved me to find out more about a period of recent history that is probably little known about by those of us of a certain age,nationality and gender.
Cate Blanchett is, as ever, wonderful. As is Tracey Ullman.
Never watched it but have the book, which I guess has a narrative that aligns with the end of season one. The book is a fine piece of work.
One of those ones that I would consider but with almost limitless access through on-demand, we have four different series running at the moment, a bunch of films and documentaries piled up and that’s before all the live sport kicks back in!
Then you have all the add-ons like Mrs Mibbes wanting attention, children wanting attention, household jobs, it is remorseless.
Watching Gangs of New York, never got the critics hate, thought it was brilliant.
Scorsese apparanlty was unhappy with the final edit so awaiting the directors cut. One of Scorsese's most loved actors is a Hibs fan, he asked Scorsese to change the script from Hibernian B@tards to Hibernian hordes cos he couldn't say it. Anyways, Scorsese has a few Scottisb actors in his collection. I doubt they are all Hibs but its funny
Finished Baptiste utterly outstanding
It would be interesting to see how they match up, I do know that Hughie is different in the TV show compared to the comics, he is the son of Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan and looks nothing like the comic version, apparently the character is based on Simon Pegg, the show is messed up but I love it, some great one liners in it too.
I'm enjoying Snowpiercer on Netflix.
My guilty pleasure is Wynonna Earp :wink:
The books are very different but basic premise. Hughie is indeed modeled on Simon Pegg (hence why he plays his father) and he's from Glasgow in the books.
The books start brilliantly. Just Butcher on a bench, sees Homelander flying in the sky and simply says "I'm going to ****ing have you, you ****." :faf: set the tone!
Did notice in the trailer for season 2 a quick glimpse of Butchers dog Terror... hope he's the same!!
Been watching Bloodline on netflix, bit of a slow burner at first but getting really good now (just on first season)
I just watched The Australian Dream - a documentary about Adam Goodes an indigenous Aussie Rules player who stood up to racism. Really enjoyed it. Might still be on iPlayer - I recorded it on bbc2 a week or so ago.
West Wing cast re-uniting to 'get out the vote'

For anyone who likes Gomorrah then the film L'Immortale about Ciro is out if you are missing your fix
Cobra Kai season 2 now on Netflix
Flying through the documentaries just now and watched Worlds Most Wanted over the past couple of days. I see that Felicien Kabuga was finally arrested this year while they were completing the documentary. The Russian mobster may be a tricky one to catch but the other 3 will surely be caught some day, hopefully starting with the British jihadist lady. Crazy story her life.
