Castlerock - Enjoyable escapism - I enjoyed most of season 1 more but like the ending of season 2 better.
Outsider - More serious than above, if that's possible, but still very good
Mr Mercedes - Season 1 excellent -Season 2 excellent - Season 3 excellent ...All Stephen King source material.

Watched this over a couple of sittings, highly recommend. One of those ones where you're sitting there experiencing fascination and "what the fuck am I watching" at the same time.

Anyone started watching the Chicago Bulls documentary The Last Dance?
I'm not a huge fan of basketball, but any sport lover will want to see this.

How good is it though. I was a massive MJ fan and I pretty much quit basketball when he did.
Just watch the first two episodes. I am giddy with happiness at watching that footage.

@Kirwan What platform? I can't remember why not but I never got past season one when it came out. Would like to watch it through
Battlestar? I own it (huge nerd).
It's currently free on Syfy if you can get past the geo lock.

Watched the first episode of The Stranger, but I'm a bit meh about it, so not sure if I'll continue. Tonight watched ep 1 of Peaky Blinders S2, but was a bit gory. Might save for another time. I'm kinda pissed I've watched all the Broadchurch episodes, cos that is what I'm in the mood for. Even Killing Eve (which I loved the first two seasons of) isn't quite doing it for me.
-
@Mokey knew you'd be gutted after Broadchurch. What about Dublin Murders? Per Bones below have heard the Stranger is a grower too, next on my watch list, the book is good so I expect most will enjoy the story. I'm nearly half way through s2 Killing Eve, golly it's sooo good!!!
-
@R-L yeah nah Dublin Murders is shit. Opposite of the stranger, starts off great guns then tumbles into a bucket of shit after a couple of episodes.
-
Yea Dublin Murders struggled to keep up the momentum.
Interestng fact about the male lead in Dublin Murders, Killian Scott, was born Cillian Murphy but changed his name cos of another actor of same name.
Damnation (with Killian Scott) and the main guy from Quarry.
Decent watch, slow burner too, 5 eps in
-
@Bones @R-L Re The Stranger. Not inclined to watch the series as I've read the book and several others by Harlen Coben and his stand alone books follow much the same thread as each other. A bit like a Dan Brown story. First one great. Second one, have't I heard this story before. Third. Yawn.

Not just his stand alone books either. His whole 11 book Myron Bolitar series are 60% cut and paste from the previous books.
Mind you there is an easy reading market for that stuff. Just ask Lee Child.
(Both have sucked me in for a while)
