Have I mentioned "Sharp Objects" here? I love a crime thriller, I love southern gothic and I love slow paced, literary TV that builds character and atmosphere. This show is creepy af and deeply unpleasant, but utterly brilliant.

While not in the same class I'm currently three episodes into "Castle Rock" and that doesn't suck either.

Castle Rock was worth watching for sure. I’ll have to check out Sharp Objects, it does look interesting.

BOJACK HORSEMAN S05 - starting it later today. High hopes. Got a great review in my regular (e-)paper.

Vietnam.

Oof, it is hard going.  Ep 4 atm.  But loving the learning

Final episode of Bodyguard on the Beeb last night watched by 11m people. What a writer Jed Mercurio is (rumour has it there's a follow up). Coming to Netflix soon.

[bryaneidins70]

YES and YES.

Jimmy Iovine is the man.

@neph93 now that sounds a bit of Sarah and I. HBO, so probably not on Amazon prime and we refuse to have Netflix. It might be a pay per view for Amazon, I'll check tonight. Thanks for the heads up.

Excellent, glad you got hold of it. The good news is that unlike other great limited series (True Detective S1 is a prime example) this one holds its own right to the very end.

Just starting Season 3 of this. Really enjoyed the last two.

@Madame Buttonfly  is loving that…. I have ADD when it comes to watching TV at home, too much else to distract me so I save watching anything apart from the Grand Prix until I am on holiday or on a plane....

Girl at work mentioned BLACK BOOKS Sunday… I am now watching the last episode of season 3...

Then it's back to TIME TRUMPET and THE MIGHTY BOOSH...

Giving said girl DVD boxes of FATHER TED and DARKPLACE to watch... I might have to polish off the FATHER TED one first though...

Hasan Minaj´s Patriot Act on Netflix is really good, that guy is razor sharp and the Steve Jobs Keynote Format of the Show is quite entertaining.

The Degenerates is also really funny but lets say on the other end of the spectrum, right on the bottom

Shocked that no one has mentioned The Haunting of Hill House. It’s fantastic.

[neph93]

All my German peeps! What’s the domestic opinion of Babylon Berlin? I’m well into season 2 and I’m bloody loving it.

MANIAC - on ep 2. The sci-fi part is eighties style but I like it thus far…
