I’ve finished Line Of Duty and The Tunnel.

Just finished StartUp on Netflix.

Next, on Disney

NCIS on Fox (Nowtv)

Mainly watching films again now.

Still got three seasons left though of How To Get Away With Murder

Nice thread, @Topsy2

So…

Line of Duty

  • (finished it - disappointed - seemed a bit tired) a big “So what?”

Fargo

  • seen it around - just started it - weirdly impressive

Waking the Dead - another run at it…

Gomorrah

  • bit of a challenge, then saw the attraction

Call the Midwife

  • I’ve no idea why, but amongst the dross, some really good stories

Wow! I so felt this too.

Thought I was the only one.

Seemed a big anti-climax to me.

No The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, @Danny ?

Yes. So much hype - therefore it must be ground-breakingly brilliant.

Not so. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Ah right.

I download rarely.

Just watch on the apps, be it on TV or phone.

I have no Freeview channels due to would need a new aerial so live off BBC iPlayer, Netflix, Disney+, with occasional NowTV, Amazon Prime, and ITVHub.

Cancelled Sky subscription last year. Never looked back.

What did you think of NEXT?

I agree entirely about the finale of Line of Duty, it was a complete disappointment for me if I’m honest. It just seemed to have run out of steam that last episode.

I do hope that the writers will knock out another series though.

Another one I forgot to add to my list, Happy Valley, absolutely superb.

My all time favourite TV show is Person of Interest. I’d recommend it to anyone who has never seen it. Particularly if you’re into spy thrillers, crime, tech, hacking, mass surveillance, terrorism plots, or AI, and the political and moral entanglements of those subjects.

Currently I’m watching:

  • Mythic Quest
  • The Blacklist
  • Next
  • Ted Lasso
  • For All Mankind

I’m quite a fan of the content on Apple TV+. There’s a lot of good quality easy viewing stuff.

A few of my other favourite shows include:

  • The Mandalorian
  • The Morning Show
  • Game of Thrones
  • Pretty Little Liars
  • How to Get Away With Murder
  • probably some others that I can’t think of right now

A blast from the past. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Fascinating use of IT and great characters.

This was intriguing - with not a smile in it :flushed:.

Again, it appeared to run out of steam. Or maybe it couldn’t end any other way.

High end acting.

I really enjoyed how it ended, the final episode was almost poetic.

I think season 4 was a little slow but overall i think it’s some of the best television I’ve ever seen

My inner (and outer) geek thought Halt and catch fire was great

I was really disapointed when it disappeared from Amazon Prime. I used to watch different bits of it a lot

Nothing from ITV, do they even make anything worth watching anymore? I’ve been trying to recall when the last time is, that I’ve ever found anything to watch.

Got to be at least 3 years ago :thinking:

Just watched Chelsea Women get slaughtered 0-4 by Barcelona Woman in their Champions League Final.

Free on YouTube courtesy of BT Sport.

Wish I’d watched a movie now though, tbh :rofl:

They make some promising looking trailers. The programmes they are trailing are pretty dire, though. I’ve been caught out many a time.

There was one show I enjoyed, and that was Liar.

ITVs dramas rarely interest me.

I’ll watch anything with Ant and Dec though. Martin Lewis has been great throughout Covid too.
