1899 on Netflix
Started off quite well, but sorta stalled mid-season and meandered a bit, didnt quite hit the mark for me.
I've just finished watching this myself. Based on my experience with Dark I was anticipating plenty of twists and confusion. I certainly wasn't expecting that ending. There are plenty of questions still to be answered in S2.

Nope...been canned.
The Cleaner (S1) - quirky dark comedy about a guy who is a crime scene cleaner.
Some really funny shit.
-
@taniwharugby Yeah, I read that. Netflix are a joke. It was them who approached the creators after the success of Dark. I'll watch what's on my list and then cancel. Quantity over quality.

She's the one from Brave New World right?
Pity it's on Paramount+ though.

Yes, that's correct, she was the lead actress in Brave New World which I haven't watched yet but is on the list.
She's very quirky hot in this and there's a fair number of scenes in just bra and panties but tit-watch is a zero unfortunately.

She's pretty hot in Brave New World but the actress who played her best friend was hotter.

Speaking of Netflix.
Treason
Starring Charlie Cox (minus the cane and glasses) and Olga Kurylenko. An enjoyable 5-part spy thriller that doesn't tread any new ground but has enough twists and tension to be a good watch.The Witcher: Blood Origin
A big turd. Only 4 episodes so I didn't waste too much of my life. The Witcher is dead anyway now that Henry Cavill has walked away. Netflix can cancel that shit! -
Just watched "troubled blood" latest release here anyway for C.B Strike.
Great P.I series, even the side characters add value.

SAS Rogue Heroes. BBC 6 episodes. The story of how David Stirling formed the SAS during the Nth Africa Campaign in WW2.
Made by the guys who did Peaky Blinders.
Very entertaining. Good soundtrack. Well cast. 4.5 tonnes of sand in my orifice out of 5 don’t fuck with me’s
Finally got to see this. It's well cast, beautifully shot and as you say; very entertaining.

Jack Ryan - Season 2
Having recently discovered that S3 was about to come out, or already come out - I quickly worked my way through this.
- Once again - really doing well at nailing the "feel" of the source material
- ie: jingoistic as fuck.
- America, US, USA, just the fucking best
- "you cost three American lives". (Also, by the way, dozens of non-american useless lives)
- US choppers flying around Caracas, armed to the teeth, for transport - apparently "sweet as".
- And yes. I know. It's fucking Tom Clancy. We go into this expecting it. America rocks. US is all. USA, USA. But... fuck. You're a dick, Clancy.
- Tit-watch: zero. Very disappointing, considering it's mostly set in Venezuela. Venezuelan tit-watch is my sort of tit-watch.
- Oh, and ridiculousness. A lot of incredulous ridiculousness. But - you can get away with a lot of shit if you state "we're staying true to the heart/soul of the source material".
- Oh, and the subsidiary protagonist - caused a whole lot of strife. You had one job. ONE. Stay in the boat. Keep it running. YOU are to blame. You. Should've stayed home, if only for the sake of everybody else. One job. Fucking one.
