    I know this has been mentioned in the Star Wars thread but the Mandolorian belongs here as well.

    SW stuff aside I love this resurrection of the old weekly TV serial show genre. Eps are short enough that you don't waste time explaining stuff or padding it out but just set up the ep quickly then close it out with some action.
    It's like watching 60s TV with better production qualities.

    If you aren't watching this you are missing out and I somehow feel that waiting to collect a bunch up then binging won't work the same.

    Good tip. I'd been hearing really good things about this show and my circles are generally pretty anti new star wars so that's saying something...now how to convince the Mrs to prioritise this over a shitty relationship drama which fell off a cliff in quality 6 episodes back ('A million little things' - great for the first 80% of the first season..and then not so much)

    The eps are only about 30 mins long. I'm sure your missus is probably used to tolerating things shorter than that? 😉

    @Catogrande Definitely don't bother with S3. It will only infuriate you. The ending is a massive letdown.

    @Mokey I can't recall if I bailed after S2 or managed to get through 3.

    They shoulda stopped after S1.

    @taniwharugby It was a really good ding dong battle between detective and serial killer to start. S3 was just fucking bizarre though. The first three episodes were endless, detailed medical stuff for Spector, then it was like they realized oh shit the season is 6 episodes, so crammed in a whole bunch of subplots in the remaining three, half of which were not explained or resolved. The final episode was ludicrous though, in what happened and how things were allowed to end.

    Does anyone else get into "8 out of 10 cats does Countdown"?

    Easily my favourite program at the moment.

    The beauty of the program is that you can legitimately ogle Rachel.

    Smart, funny and hot.

    It's bloody awesome. I saw that before I'd seen the original. It's one of the only comedy panel shows Bonesetta also likes to watch.

    Seen any of the old episodes with Nick Helm? Worth catching up on.

    The Loudest Voice in the Room. @Nepia

    The rise and fall of Roger Ailes.

    Definitely worth a watch and interesting, think Crowe is bloody good in it. Weird to see Macfarlane, especially in something like this and his role, but he does bloody well.

    after a few weeks of internet issues now thankfully resolved, i finally got to finish The Boys

    Fucking great fun. It's not brilliant, i find it tends to drag in places, but that last episode was very fucking cool, and suddenly i can't wait for season 2.

    I love the short length of the Amazon shows

    @taniwharugby I'm at the same point. Amos is the business! Naomi is the weak point for me right now, finding her irritating over the last season and a half.
