Just started watching The Looming Tower, looking like I'll enjoy this.

Just found Bosch is back, brilliant (y)

Had a quick look and watched a few minutes of Ghost Squad, looks like it might be OK, will give a couple of episodes a bash later.

Crossing Lines 2 has come off the 'pay to watch' matrix, so that will get watched over the coming days also as I really enjoyed the first series.
Looming tower look s good, on hulu ? Will look into that and crossing lines too ?

I've got the 3rd one to watch tonight, really enjoyed the first 2. I think 3 hour long episodes would have been fine, it's just that an hours worth of ITV is only around 40 something minutes once the adverts are taken out. But then again I sat through 6 proper hour long episodes of The Trial of Christine Keeler and whilst the acting was all very good, not sure the story warranted 6 hours.

The actual footage from ITV has appeared on You Tube. Its interesting watching it for real.

We just started our trial of Britbox. Although we haven't watched anything as yet, I feel sure we'll subscribe. I've scrolled through the available shows and there are dozens that I already know we will enjoy. Any tips on things to consider will be greatly appreciated.

Began watching The Last Dance tonight.

Basketball is probably my least favourite mainstream sport. Never watched or played it. Also a tiny bit too young to know much at all about the Bulls in the 90s but caught the advert plus a bit of Twitter noise which drew me in.

Absolutely awesome. MJ is fascinating, what a sportsman. Can't wait for the remaining episodes.

One episode left of Homeland....... :eek:

Not sure how they're going to wrap it all up in one episode, but has been an excellent ride.

Halfway through the new season of Bosch too, just an always excellent detective drama.

Been working my way through a lot of the sport documentaries on the amazon firestick. Sadly a few seemed to have been made 4-5 years ago and so are out of date badly (Death of a Gentleman about test cricket being a case in point) but still a lot of good and interesting stuff on there.

I'm really tempted but it has Ron Swanson in it, and to me that is the greatest character ever. So I know I'll just expect him to be Ron. Which I know is my problem and not Nick Offermans.
he is def the best part of Devs, main character is terrible couldn't help rooting for Kenton to just kill her TBH

Am I the only one thinking, go on Kill Eve? Please, just do it.

Only in a fictional sense of course.
i'd agree, the first part of S1 when Villenelle is on her killing spree is really entertaining, anything with Eve in is just poor as is her acting IMO, would have been improved by her being killed in the first meeting, S2 isn't much cop and 2 eps in to S3 is even worse :(
