You turned me on to Call My Agent as well.....so..... what's next on your "watch this!" list?
Squid games season 2 out on Netflix , Taken a while for season 2 to come out but it's here !
Are you sure? I think it just a real life version, i.e. people competing in the games shown in the show (obviously without lethal consequences) and some other games specifically made for the show.Quote:

Mr Inbetween. Really recommend it. About an Aussie hitman trying to balance raising his daughter etc. black comedy drama is probably best way of describing it.
It’s from 2019-2021 and there’s 3 seasons but only a total of about 26 episodes.

I'm watching series 5 of Ray Donovan and the way they're telling the story is very good.
I'm sure you'll have seen most of the popular ones.
Edit: Upright with Tim Minchin was good too.
Cheers :aok:Quote:

I find it hard to reconcile my feelings on the subject, I want proper punishment for people who deserve it, but I want rehabilitation to be the main driving factor, even if you go into prison a lost cause, there should be something in there that makes you refocus.
Doctor Who. JK Rowling must be beelin' 😂😂😂
Finished it last night, thoroughly enjoyed it.Quote:

I'm expecting season 3 to be the same time next year
Anyone watched Lodge 49? Think I stumbled upon it from IMDB-ing Wyatt Russell and seeing it listed and wondering what it was. Watched the first episode and thought it was quite good. A little bit like if Wes Anderson’s was to do The Big Lebowski.
Cheers.Quote:

S3 of Slow Horses now on Apple.
That programme has always had a hard core of supporters, wouldn't be surprised if it has wider a peel now.Quote:

Finished Line of Duty series one on iplayer and fail to understand how it gripped the nation. I'll persist and see if it improves though I doubt it.
It's riddled with clichés and one or two of the cops are straight out of Rada. Paul Higgins, so good in The Thick of It, sounds like he's had a crash course in received pronunciation.
He’s got a brilliant Anglofied accent in it.Quote:

I was the same, Wife kept saying its brill and you will love it, I put it off, further put it off and further put it off until one night I relented, then I was hooked 😀Quote:

It started to lose its way in the last series but they have definitely jumped the shark now.
Pity as I enjoyed the early series
Imelda Staunton superb on Brassic Xmas Special. 👏
She was indeed, classic BrassicQuote:

Reacher season 1 :top marks
Season 2 up next over the next few days , Bit shan only 4 episodes though
Finally watched Ted Lasso. Will try and give it more than one episode but don’t think it’s for me. Felt basically all the non Jason Sudekis characters were wooden and their scenes felt forced, and not the deliberate fish out of water type characters. Will try another episode before giving up.
We're on season 2, Not sure if they are releasing an episode a week.Quote:

I felt the same after watching the first season last year, cringed at a lot of it. Was thinking about going back and giving it another try but I doubt I will.Quote:

How is Ricky Gervais's Armageddon the hottest thing on netflix? It's brutal.
The Tourist second series on BBC iplayer, I dont know what to make of it as its just absolute radge 🤣
Season 1 was great and the plot was well laid out and worked well over the series. I feared season 2 would fall down on that side but like you say the whole 110 team storyline has me even more intrigued. Not a show I thought I’d like but turns out it got me hooked. I’m only up to Ep3 on S2 just now.Quote:

I felt the same after the first few episodes and only stuck with it because my wife wanted to watch it. I ended up loving it.Quote:

I've started watching Road to a Million on Amazon. It's a reality competition which is supposed to be based on scenes from James Bond movies.
There are 9 teams of 2 who complete genuinely difficult challenges in order to find sets of questions.
If they answer correctly, they win increasing amounts of money, with a million on offer if they get them all right.
If they get a question wrong, they're eliminated.
Only watched the first episode of Truelove on Channel 4, it was always going to be a tad morbid due to the description of the programme but, Jesus! 😳
Looking like a pensioner version of Mayflies so far.
I’ve just watched the first two episodes of Alan Bates Versus The Post Office. Very well produced drama about the Post Office Horizon computer scandal. Well-made, well acted and very thought provoking. Anger provoking storyline that shames the devious, bullying tactics of the publicly owned company.
Genuinely difficult?Quote:

A few seconds later they miraculously find some gloves and scales to try and deal with the spider…none of it seemed real or ‘genuine’ at all.
Half decent concept to be fair but apart from that I’m defo not a fan.
Just binged watched it . Absolutely ****ing scandelous what the post office got away with ...Lying through their teeth for years , Shame on them lying ***** !!!Quote:

New series of The Traitors has been good so far. Watched all 3 episodes that are on iPlayer.
I'm sure I'd be rubbish at it. Far too many people I have already decided I dislike (I'm looking at you Dianne) and that would cloud my judgement.
Im loving it and exactly the same as you I took an instant dislike to Diane, Brian didnt help himself with his strange nervous outburst at the vote and Ive a funny feeling as Anthony has the final vote he is going to go for Brian and Ash will survive to face her traitor ish traitorsQuote:

I'm on episode 5 of the first series of Kin.
Finding it a very good watch and I am delighted to learn that there is another series available. Cheers
It’s so bad it’s almost good. Who told Michelle Keegan she could act? She plays the same character in everything.Quote:
