    @mn5 I gave up on The Strain.

    The Terror looks good, I have too much else on the go to start something else new yet.

    Really?!?!? I loved it although to be fair it got pretty silly in the end.

    @mn5 I gave it 5 eps, which is more than I give most series (I gave The Wire a series @Nepia and still didnt rate it)

    @bovidae yep, just didnt grab me...go figure, yet I keep watching shit like TWD that are on a steep decline.

    Tried S2 a couple of times, it seemed ok, but it didnt grab me to keep watching (have watched worse shows through for some reason too)

    One episode into Westworld and I'm not exactly busting a nut to get back.

    Perhaps I built it up in my mind too much?

    theres no hope for you then. That was the most satisfying episode of Westworld I've seen yet. The payoff to season 1's slowburn. The death of the masters. Carnage. Intrigue. Slightly exasperating timelines. All there!

    Sorry I should clarify. Episode 1 of season 1. I'm late on the bandwagon.

    We seriously need a down button - you’d be sitting on -50.

    Perhaps my favourite scene from S1, and maybe even the series, in The Wire.

    The Terror is pretty good so far. A bit slow to start with but up to episode 4. A few grisly deaths from an unseen bear/monster keep you on your toes. Pretty obvious the characters are all gonna lose their shit due to their ordeal ( two ships stuck in the ice ). That should be entertaining.

    Will keep going and try to find time for Westworld too.

    Lost in Space

    Surprisingly awesome. A few episodes in, always nice when kid actors aren't irritating as fuck. The Robot is my favourite character though.

    I've watched the first two episodes of The Handmaid's Tale S2. I love this show, so gripping and scary in the mindfuckery, but holy shit it's bleak.

    I enjoyed season 1 and was looking forward to it after a break but as you say....too bleak. Have given up on it now after the first episode back....

    @mn5 Ha, definitely don't watch episode 2 then. That is far worse than episode 1. A lesbian couple ripped apart, a newspaper building where all the journalists got executed, and a look at life in the colonies, mining toxic shit.

    I'll watch it in the background when the Mrs has it on. I genuinely really enjoyed season 1 so no idea why I'm not into 2.

    Liked season one as well but neither the wife or I could get into the start of season 2. I suspect it is because they finished the Margaret Atwood novel in season one. It is now a bunch of TV writers rather an author who wrote a novel converted to some good tele I think.

    I haven't started the new season of Handmaids Tale yet, will probably wait until I have more eps and then be sad for one day haha...some shows is just easier to get through a bunch rather than prolong it.

    while checking something on IMDB the other day I saw a 'recommended for you' show called Dollhouse, with Eliza Dushku (is an older series)

    Worth watching?...aside from the obvious

    @taniwharugby It's a Joss Whedon series, probably my least favourite of his - as it was on broadcast TV for the first series it was episode of the week. The second series was more serialised. At the end of the 2nd series they did a time jump episode totally different from the rest of the show (different characters) and I wish they'd made that.

    Watchable.
