Netflix has a bunch of, well hopefully watchable, new shows.
The Night Agent is decent so far.
Evil Terminator actor is a grumpy old fuck in it. Pretty entertaining two episodes in.
Can see you aren't far in. Def commendable for its quota of Kiwi, Tongan, Scottish and Billy T James "children".
I saw whatshername from NZ get killed early on. Who else is there ?
The main female lead, the Tongan-Scottish NZ actor who has played Billy T's daughter...
Oh righto, I just assumed she was Hispanic ?
I know what you mean but the longer you watch it the more she looks Tongan.

She’s good at accents so far, would never have guessed in a million years if I hadn’t known.

Yes, it was impressive. I also wonder why Netflix has so many Canadian and Australian actors (pretending to be Americans). The former I can understand, but there must be great agents in Australia..

Probably cos they cost a lot less.
A couple more episodes this avo/evening. Pretty good so far.

I've got no idea, you are probably right.
Yes I think the plotholes increase near the end but it was def watchable. Good supporting cast. -

Night Agent
Holy shit I was close to switching off when we met the president. That's some suit.
You’ve completely lost me with this post, what am I missing ?
It goes along so well and then they throw in a crater of a plot hole or you meet the president looking like they just stepped out of a bangles reunion.

Yeah it’s definitely pulling the “convenient bullshit coincidence meter” to critical but it’s entertaining enough. Just finished episode 6 and things seem close to being wrapped up, I’m intrigued as to where they go from here to be honest.
Then again, you wouldn’t believe the Finnish Prime Minister looked like that if it wasn’t true.

Jury Duty on Amazon
A documentary on the inner workings of jury. The twist is everyone is an actor except one jury member who isn't in on the joke.
Worth sticking with, because there's some genuinely funny bits. Or there was while I was three sheets to the wind...

Currently watching S2 of Fauda on Netflix Uk.
Drama focussing on the Israeli Defense Forces and their covert battles with Hamas. Devised by ex member of IDF. Fully subtitled.
Well worth a watch.

saw the trailer for this, was thinking of not watching until I saw the trailer.. this looks like an unexpected hit..glad someone also found it funny. Given I don't spend much non work time sober, then I think I might enjoy this!

@antipodean sounds interesting, made more that Mrs TR is currently on jury service a week into a 2 week trial.

@Bones said in TV Serieseseses:
@MN5 it was really just the abomination of a suit. I don't think the Finnish PM would wear that around the office.
It's keeping the mystery well, I can't really figure it out and I'd have usually sussed it by now.
All done, a pretty good but certainly not great show. Have definitely set it up well for season 2.

Finished Beef on Netflix.
Pretty good, have to imagine for it to escalate as it did, you need 2 people on the edge, but when you learn more about both, you can see how it ended up going on the path it did, but probably not to the extreme it did for these 2 and the collateral damage.

I thought it was really good from episode 5 onwards but was struggling with it not living up to the hype until then (peeps in real life as well as online).
MILD SPOILER: I enjoyed the final scene for the rich bitch - she was annoying me the entirety of the show.

Are you talking about the suit the president is wearing when we first see her?
I didn't think it was that bad... but then, I own(ed) a very similar suit some time ago (albeit... home-made).
For me - this was the moment when I finally admitted to myself I was watching absolute trash:
It's like a fucking terrible B-/C+ grade 'thriller' book, where the protagonist ponders these questions internally... but actually literally spelled out in a fucking TV shot. Horrible.
