TV Series - What Are You Watching?

I have been doing the Marvels thing. Previously I had watched some of the early ones Iron Man 1 & 2
and Guardians 1 & 2

What order are you doing them in date of release or sequence of events? Gone for sequence of events myself.

Sequence of events. So starting with Captain America, Captain Marvel, Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Incredible Hulk, Thor etc.
 
Just saw a short series called Unorthodox. It was about a young wife escaping an oppressive ascetic Jewish community in Brooklyn, New York, and fleeing to Berlin.

Lead was a tiny Israeli actress named Shira Hass. I'd never seen her before, but she did a good job.
 
Started looking on BBC i-player for a bit of light relief. Found a sitcom series called Scarborough with Jason Manford which had passed me by. Watched episode 1 and thoroughly enjoyed it - he can belt out a song.

I really liked it as well, done by the chap who did Benidorm which I also enjoyed. Unfortunately the BBC have not commissioned a second series which to me is not the best idea.
 
I've been going through BBC iPlayer and catching up on lots of factual programmes.
I've just been watching "Age of the Image". Fascinating.
There are some great documentaries to be found.
I'm also running through Brian Cox Wonders of Life/The Solar System/The Universe. All good stuff.
Also some great historical programmes as well. It's very interesting to see a lot of myths dispelled.
 
Finished Tiger King on Netflix over the weekend, absolutely insane, I loved it. One of the craziest stories and some truly despicable people. When the guy who convinces straight dudes to marry him and enter into a 3 way marriage with him in exchange for Meth, that keeps tigers in cages and wishes a fellow Tiger keeper was dead isn't the worst person in the documentary by a long shot, you know you're in for a good time. So many incredible scenes, the funeral of one of his husbands where he dresses up as a priest and eulogises over his testicles in-front of the grieving family, the music videos, a member of his staff losing an arm and returning to work 7 days later, it is full of incredible moments. The documentary series of the year.

Watched the whole thing over the weekend. One of the best things I’ve seen recently. Lions, tigers, mullets and rednecks. What’s not to like? That woman had the craziest eyes of the lot. Defo killed her first husband.
 
We binged all 8 episodes of the Stranger,. Really got into it and enjoyed it right up until the last 20minutes of the final episode that for me just let the whole series down, was gripping right up until that damp squib.
 
The Stranger, 3eps to go. We've put The Nest on hold after 3eps (or is it 2...) as I can't multi-task too many series in parallel as I am also watching The War of the Worlds (Fox)
 
Have been watching the Diego Maradona film on All 4. Tis a fascinating film with some superb coverage. He was an astonishing footballer albeit thoroughly unlikeable at various points.
