    Penguin is hella good, can’t wait for new episode tonight. Few other recommendations, but not as big as other shows out there. outer range took min to get going but is a really good show. Thought it was going be like Yellowstone(good show as well) but way differnt and 1st season had eerie twin peaks filming vibe. Also show called dark was so sick, get used to the over dub and a lot going on. Highly recommend

        Oof! Where do I even start.

        Severance
        Silo

        Both on Apple TV and are great. Severance especially is mind meltingly brilliant. The concept is something pretty special/original. Looking forward to the second season.

        Silo is a more moody version of say Fallout (Prime) and has Rebecca Ferguson in it, so that makes it pretty much essential viewing because she's that damn good.

        The White Lotus seasons 1 and 2. Oh boy, HBO never fail do they? Both set in different locations, people staying at the White Lotus hotel. Clever adult themed dark comedy. Season 3 incoming.

        I'm catching up with Industry on BBC iplayer. Messy stuff.

        Alice in Borderlands on Netflix. Such a great show, a third season has been announced. Based on a comic/graphic novel series. Sort of like Squid Game but not.

        I rewatched Lost recently and finished it, with my 14 year old daughter. Going to say this: It has aged magnificently (almost like a certain brand of denim we know). I know people disliked the ending/finale, but I think it's a perfect fit for the story. Talking of which, a much as I enjoyed the days 20 or so years ago reading forums and reddit etc on fan theories when we had one episode a week - binge watching it is a far superior experience.

        So much more made sense, so many subtle little things I missed first time round too. Only real dip for me was start of season 3 (when the writers and studio were at odds with each other). Studio wanted 14 seasons! Writers wanted to end it within a handful or so. The writers won by dragging out the start of season 3 and delivering the worst ever episode of Lost (where Jack gets his tattoos).

        Of all the shows I've enjoyed, still think it has the best character arcs of any.

        As for all-timers?

        The Sopranos (had pretty much everything)
        The Wire
        True Detective (mostly season 1)
        Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul (the latter is better than the original)
        Succession
        Shogun (I'm unsure about the necessity to have more seasons for a tv show based on a single novel)

        There's probably another dozen to add to this elite tier. For another day. I'd include The Bear in that list.

        Special mentions to the modern remake of Battlestar Galactica, early seasons of Dexter and season 1 of Westworld was absolutely outstanding.

        The X-Files and Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Walking Dead for the popcorn drama. Don't playa hate me.

          @endo without giving anything away, the ending kind of pissed me off.

              @Nick holy smokes we are covering some heavy hitters across a lot of genres! Enjoyed the write up dude.
              I’ll weigh in on Lost, loved the journey, hated the destination… absolutely HOOKED me early on around S1 E4 when Locke up and started walking around. Oh, and fuck you writers for making me hold out for Walt and all those magical island powers.

                @flannel-slut Really valid point with Walt. Not sure what happened there from a creative standpoint. Absolutely wasted the potential as felt if anyone had a right to protect the island it was him.

                They did release that epilogue which was much ado about very little that included a Walt cameo in it (was set after the final episode in terms of the present day).

                  Natasha Lyonne is pretty cool, and I like the episode with Simon Helberg.

                            Rewatching Trailer Park Boys and I've just realised I've been jacking Bubbles' swagger with these Western shirts the last few years...

                                @T4920 i just started watching Trailer Park Boys first the first time a few months back. its solid gold. I find Mr. Lehey's creative prose using 'shit' hilarious.

                                  “Guys it’s me, from now on I’m the scorpion” lol. TPB is freaking hilarious, one my favs for sure. Seasons 1-7 the best, some of the Netflix ones good too but the og Canadian ones fire. Espically any scene with Ray… side note def check out letterkenny and then shorsey, some more Canadian comedy highly recommend.

                                    I was so sad when John Dunsworth died, probably my favourite character in comedy show ever!

                                    But, to quote a wise man;

                                    'Way she goes...'

                                      Ten years ago now, I almost got beat up on numerous occasions for calling people Cocksuckers... Got a little bit too inside Bubbles' head!

                                        Pretty cool. Stereotype (probably?) Canadians dumbasses trying to do the big (maple syrup) heist. But, Margo Martindale charming as ever.
