Also, tried previously, but working my way through The Expanse. On Season 1. Enjoying its mix of sci-fi dystopianism, conspiracy, and hard-boiled film noir detective influences.
Finally, I'm watching The Wire, on season 3 there, which somehow is farther than I made it last time when I let the disruption of the harbor story chase me off early in Season 2 (which wound up being a great season). What an amazing series. By end of Season 5, I suspect it will have passed Breaking Bad in my favorites, which is hard to imagine.
Love The Expanse and The Wire. I really have to circle back to The Wire though. Fantastic series and great character arcs. It's great to see some of the actors from that show move onto bigger things. We all know Michael B Jordan but he was sooo young in The Wire. Then there's Idris Elba and Chad Coleman, who plays Cutty, but is also in The Expanse.

Mad Men is one of the best tv series there has been, and although I didn’t work in the 50/60s hey day of advertising, I can still see lots of things that happen in the show that we’re similar to when I worked in agencies in the 90s.
Another great series is The Deuce, not sure if anyone has seen this? But the art direction is spot on - really feels like it is filmed in the 70s NY

Two of my absolute favourites there. The last season of The Deuce was magnificent.

Couldnt agree more, esp with MadMen. We collect vintage Herman Miller & Knoll so we like to try to spot stuff in our collection on the show [emoji102][emoji102]

On Watchmen now. Best show I’ve seen in quite a while. I’ve watched the Wire 2x’s. Likely the best thing ever on the small screen.

Haven’t seen the Watchmen yet but am quite fond of the music:

If anything became abudantly clear now watching that GRAND TOUR x-mas special/ S04E01 it's just how much May does not want to be anywhere near Clarkson anymore… It was palpable in a lot of the studio segments in earlier episodes, where May never laughed at any of Clarkson's jokes, or didn't even look at him...
I'll be happy (for him) if his Japan-focused show becomes a hit so he can do his own show...

Gave up on The Expanse after a few episodes and started The Boys (Amazon Prime). Binged it over the last few days and loved it.
