"Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much. Breaking Bad, Homeland done Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?"

"Am desperately trying to get through The Flight Attendant but fucking hell, it's hard work. Watched the first episode of Breeders last night. Thoroughly enjoyable, even though Martin Freeman seems to play pretty much the same character whatever he's in (sorry Debs)"

"Been staying at a pals this week and have indeed got into Mare of easttown...literally didnt have any clue about it, even that she was in it - absolute cracker and the last episode was a real escalation -in a good way I dont have Sky and having watched it this week, I have to say ""Im out"" ...if this is the future of television then i guess im going to be looking at boxed sets for the rest of my days.....the amount of curation of content and wokeness all around BLM and post-georgefloyd is so intrusive and patronising its frankly an insult to anyones intelligence- a good example being "" city on the hill "" which is a sky atlantic series with kevin bacon...every episode has a lecture about whitey is bad and re-writing history and every single blackperson that has ever been killed has either directly or indirectly been killed by whitey....just ridiculous... and as for the adverts---- waaaay to many and also only seem to have one theme ....can you guess what it is , yet?!"

"NS, the best Television has ever been. Loads of good stuff about these days but BoB is simply perfect in everyway. Amazing characters and story lines that are all fact and real events. Chill, i've also just finished season 4 of Snowfall and it is brilliant."

I’m actually enjoying Holston. Apart from the scenes with two blokes smashing the back doors off each other obviously

Persevered with Domina. It isn't as bad as I first thought. They changed the actor playing Octavian in the 3rd episode which is a massive bonus. Still lacks pace and drama and the writing isn't too clever. It's watchable though.

I'm surprised Snowfall isn't mentioned more often given it's superb and on terrestrial TV.

"Mare of Eastown is the best cop drama around at the moment. Amazingly, 4 eps in, and Kate Winslett hasn't got her tits out once. Bloody good actress though."
