I know @jegga is a big fan of Strikeback, but I gotta say S6 is a bit pants with even more unbelievable storylines and narrow escapes (in one ep, while in the Middle East, one of the agents calls on a Warlord who he had previously crossed, to honour thier cultural 'guest rites' and give them a safe place to stay over night after a shootout, in another, they survive a bunker buster missle while only 50m outside the bunker)
The 2 main characters (Scott & Stonebridge) are replaced by a new team, and most of this series has a cartoonish feel to it.
First couple of eps are your usual sex scenes, may be another 1 or 2, but not 1 per ep.
2 of the females in the team are worth watching it for, but overall is down on prior series until final 2 eps when Scott & Stonebridge make an appearance and it made for a better show.

Finished Bodyguard, I thought final ep was good enough, overall very good series.
It seems many TV series really struggle with a season finale, but I was happy enough with that one.

Season 2 of American Vandal done
Very well crafted
-
Very good start to Mystery Road
-
Two episodes in with Mr Inbetween. Loving it

Just started "Maniac", a medical trials thing (close to my heart, hello Glaxo!) and see now it hasnt been renewed for a second season. Bummer as it looks to be very well done. The Fukunaga guy from True Detective S1. Lead chick is an intensely horrid spoilt shit of a woman who I hope gets killed off quickly but I know she won't. Lead guy is fat guts Jonah Hill who must've shat out a tapeworm to get that skinny.
Really enjoyed it. Didn't 'get' it. Will wait for the discussion.

Upstart Crow. brit comedy written by Ben Elton with David Mitchell as Shakespeare before he got famous. Shades of Elton's form in Blackadder, the writing is so good. Shakesy does the doth thou shit then switches to lines like "I'm not going bald. I've just got a big brain."
Holy shit. Huge fan of both Elton and Mitchell, will have to check this out

So Netflix has just added 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air'. Call me overly nostalgic but I'm loving it, still cracks me up.
On that, the Quincy Jones doco on Netflix is a worthwhile watch.
The man has certainly influenced and entertained many generations and his work has helped some of the biggest names ever in the industry. From Sinatra to Michael Jackson to Will Smith.
(FPoBA was one of Qs first TV ventures and he catapulted a financially challenged Smith to stardom)and introduced the Carlton dance to popular culture

@mikethesnow is it only 6 eps?
Was dark and funny, even Mrs TR liked it.
Still going with The Purge, I like it.

The Cry
One episode to go.
Loving it

Watching on Prime a South African series called "Cape Town".
Up to ep. 4 of 6 and it doesn't look like there are any further seasons.
A cop who's cop wife was brutally killed and he's suspected. He is partnered against his wishes with a flashy young cop from the elite squad. They are chasing down the murders of some eastern european girls.
Over all pretty good so far with the odd set of boobs every now and then.
