@Nick Need to finish season 3 mate - set in mid 80s, so good already, but ties everything up nicely
What service is this on thesedays? Still Sky (as Atlantic is just a rebranded HBO for the UK).

The Mrs and I decided to give the latest season of Dexter a chance yesterday and ended up binging 4 episodes through the middle of the night. First episode, we were like, “alright. not bad!” 3 episodes later and I’m in the corner talking to my dark passenger
Pry will watch the remaining 3 episodes to get us current tonight. -

Didn't watch the reboot. Didn't see the prequel. But I think I might have to watch the return as it appears to have found some redemption. Might need to watch a YouTube 'what you missed' video to find out what happened when Dexter was living a new life etc. Did see the first 2/3 eps come to think of it but gave up.

@Nick couldn’t agree more man, first 4 seasons are some of my favorite TV. I didn’t bother w the prequel either but did subject myself to the initial reboot that released a little after COVID. The prior season has relevance to the current season but it was a bit of a slog so watching some 20 minute recap on YouTube is a GREAT idea to get up to speed.

@Nick my wife and i did the same thing with New Blood. we watched one episode and turned to youtube for a 10 minute recap of the rest of the New Blood season and moved on to Resurrection. 2 episodes in I like resurrection thus far, but I do feel they spend a lot of time "nodding and winking" at the original series. They make a point to say Dexter Morgan and Dark Passenger over and over again, and his scenes with Harry seem drug out.
anyhow I'm kind of loving it, and I've been known to bitch about everything.

Has anyone seen The Orville? When I started the first episode, I thought it was going to be fine, but nothing special. Boy, was I wrong. That show has no business being as good as it is. If you like Star Trek and that sort of thing, give The Orville a shot. Also, Strange New Worlds is an incredible Star Trek series that's essentially a prequel to the original series. Highly recommended if you like Star Trek, or even if you don't.

@jordanscollected Blue Eye Samurai FTW

@Matt You're welcome.
I'm hoping that Ghost of Yotei will give me similar vibes when it comes out later this year. Blue Eye Samurai was great.

A couple of recommends from us:
Smoke on AppleTV+ - good cop drama about an arson investigator and police detective assigned to help him partnering up to catch two serial arsonists.
Sandman Season 2 on Netflix - seems to be following the story fairly faithfully from what I can remember having read it 20 years ago. Neil Gaiman's mythology-hopping fantasy madness at its finest.
