@antipodean I've got one sitting on the sky box, a four parter (I think) called Mind Games, "A compelling exploration of the mental side of cricket".
Broadcast here by sky sports cricket so not sure where else it would be available.

Ep 2 of Westworld last night. Maeve is my favourite host so I liked the episode. Plenty to think about regarding what is real and what is a simulation in the current version of Westworld. One question from the last episode of S2 was answered, but we still don't know who the other 4 hosts are.
:::
I'm guessing Abernathy is one of them, possibly in Charlotte.

Plus we had a reference to another HBO show.

@Bovidae pretty good ep, gave a bit more insight into the worlds.
Yeah the crossover was pretty obvious, they also had the writers form that involved too.

@taniwharugby I was referring to the whole scene, "actors" and others.

The Walking Dead thread got me thinking of all the series i never finished.
House of Cards, maybe halfway through season 2? just got sick of the same shit every episode, and getting more and more unbelievable
Billions, again maybe halfway though the 2nd season, realised i didn't actually like any of the characters
Jack Ryan S2. Didn't have the same feel as the first one
American Gods. Halfway through first season, not as good as the book, found myself doing other things rather than watchingi have an attention span problem

Deadwood (other than the odd episode during a channel flick)
The vast majority of the Sopranos -
@mariner4life You need to watch those 1 season and cancelled shows.
For example, Forever.

@mariner4life Do you have an aversion to great TV (and The Walking Dead).

i just don't watch much, and suddenly, if you miss a couple of series, it becomes a burden
for instance, it would take me 2 years to watch Breaking Bad i reckon. I'm not going to start that shit
and, given the wife and i don't see much of each other as it is, i am hardly going to make her sit through S3:E4 of a show she hasn't watched at all.

oh, and Watchmen. It was boring as fuck.

@mariner4life It took me 6 years to watch Breaking Bad ... pilot and second episode in 2008 and the rest in 2014.
More short season shows that are good:
Firefly 14 eps https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0303461/
Terriers 13 eps https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1493239/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 -

Serenity kind of doesn't quite live up to the series while still being good, but as you watched the movie first you might find it the other way. But it is a cracking series. In my top 10 despite the short run.
