Great TV series - What are you watching now?

M5Rick · 07-07-2021, 04:40 AM

Very rarely watch as most tv series both sides of pond are just time wasters now with odd humour.
One thing out of the few I like are Animal Cops Phoenix or Houston which I have time for.

Anyone here watch "I Think You Should Leave" on Netflix?

lexamckenzie · 07-07-2021, 07:18 PM

Black Summer on Netflix. I am not sure if I like it, there's a lot going on with the flow of the story.

I just finished the second season. Trust me, it's worth sticking around. I couldn't stop watching it. It has a grittier and dare I say more realistic vibe to it compared to the more blockbuster zombie shows.

I watched both seasons of "I Think You Should Leave" on Netflix with Tim Robinson. It's so off kilter and funny in a sometimes uncomfortable way I found it to be entertaining. Each episode is only about 15 minutes so it's easy to rip through all 12 episodes. Maybe one of the most unique and funny shows I've ever seen. Didn't know this guy had a short stint with SNL (I haven't watched it in years) but I think he's on to something with his brand of humor. I hope they make more seasons of this.

Some of his material was rejected stuff from SNL and I can see why because it wouldn't be as funny without the R rated language, etc.

From first episode:

Wife & I started watching Killing Eve last night on Hulu (originally on BBC). After 2 episodes, we're hooked.

Yes, I've started it recently and love it so far.

We finished season two Friday night. I have to say I like this version of a zombie tale better than most. The actual random chaos factor is there for sure. What about that ending??? Damn.

The episodes just flew by! I guess that's what happens when you're into it. Yeah, I mentioned this previously about it being different from the rest, I like this type as well. That ending was unexpected for sure and I'm hoping they'll continue the story.

I've been watching Clarkson's Farm. If you like Jeremy you might enjoy him farming. It's an ok diversion if you're looking for something to watch.

TurboSid · 07-09-2021, 02:43 PM

Just finished Ragnarok. Was decent. I think if I had something else to watch I wouldn't have stuck with it.

Now on to Bosch final season.

Wife and I started Hacks on HBO. Its decent, not exactly binge worthy but we're sticking it out since we enjoy Jean Smart.

Love this series. My only gripe is that after the first season it gets pretty convoluted and felt I had to rewatch the whole thing to remember wtf was going on when a new season came out.

I watched the English version and honestly I think they do an amazing job with these translated shows. Apart from the mouths not totally matching the voice it really sounds like it was all done in english from the start.

Wish there were more series like this.

Just finished Clarkson’s Farm, actually really entertaining. Gerald is probably my new favorite person, dude is the most incomprehensible human being I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t help but crack up every time he tries to say something to Jeremy and you can see the confused look on his face, especially when Gerald manned the harvester and was trying to give directions over the walkie talkie, that shit was hilarious.

bosstones · 07-17-2021, 06:02 AM

Re-watching The Pacific on HBO Max but also started Clarkson's Farm on Prime.

HFW003 · 07-17-2021, 07:04 AM

We too have started to watch the farm. Whilst I’m not a huge fan of Clarkson it is nice to watch a show with some genuine emotion. Particularly touching when he had to assassinate the sheep and during lambing.

We had a friend who passed away from cancer who was a sheep farmer so that also made us a little misty. I can remember pulling lambs out of their mothers, yuck.

Really worth a watch.

Clarkson is a love him or hate him kind of guy I think. For the most part I like him. And you're right, this show is pretty good. I get the sense that he genuinely is enjoying being a farmer.

Agreed, it really does look like he is enjoying himself and trying to do something worthwhile for his local environment.

Grey’s Anatomy. I somehow missed this show. Never saw a single episode. Was bored surfing Netflix and discovered 16 seasons of this truly great show!

TiMSport · 07-20-2021, 02:58 PM

I've been rather disappointed so far with the new season of "Animal Kingdom". I think they ruined it by getting rid of "Smurf". The show just seems rudderless now.
