Re: What are you watching at the moment

Finally finished Mr Inbetween. Awesome. Is so much more enjoyable to watch than a show with it's content deserves to be and the short episodes mean it never drags.

Also finished season 1 of White Lotus. I think I heard season 2 is meant to be better but like a few other popular shows atm (I guess and always) i just cannot enjoy shows where I can't find a character that I like.

It took me a couple of shows to start enjoying Mr Inbetween but it was a good Australian production. They probably could have milked a few more shows out of it.

That final appearance of his brother ripped the guys out of me. Such a great great show.

But aren't you happy they didn't? Streaming TV in particular is a graveyard of good ideas drawn out for more money. If you've got one, two great seasons then stop there and leave them wanting more. Bad things happen when you try to give them more when the magic is gone. Isn't that right, Ted Lasso?

It's either milk it too long or unceremoniously cancel it before it's done telling it's story

Which is another reason why Mr Inbetween is perfect.

Not sure if this is mentioned - seems like the place to put it? Dunno.

Watching Extraction 2. Mr Hemsworth obviously has to recoup from mass injuries. While doing so they show him watching the 2021 Semi, Lions v Dogs and Libba's first goal. Nice!

Watched first episode of "Peacemaker". Wasn't bad, wasn't great. I'll persist with a few more episodes before I make a decision. A little bit of Kmart "the Boys" vibe. Worth watching for John Cena I find him very likeable.

Watched first episode of "Foundation" on apple tv free three month trial. Looks promising if you're into sci fi. Maybe confusing. Not sure yet. Plenty of money been spent on it.

I have been watching Hijack on AppleTv+ - great show.

Trying the rebooted, justified. Feels like they’re setting it up right now, but there’s a major lack of Raylan shooting people and a distinct like of Boyd Crowder & Wynn Duffy. Hopefully it builds into something worthwhile.

For those who enjoy cycling, the Netflix Doco on the Tour de France of 2022 is worth watching for all the background stuff the teams go through.

Foundation is really good once it gets going. I can't remember the books overly well, so can't recall how true to them the show is. But it's super slick and well put together.

Can't agree with this enough. I'm keen to watch it but it'll definitely be less for no Crowder and particularly Duffy.

Excellent, I'm glad to hear it. I really enjoyed the first episode.

Re: What are you watching at the moment

I was late onto Justified and loved it. Can't imagine it without those two.

If you want to get a really weird Walton Goggins fix check out I'm a Virgo........in fact if you just want something really weird go for I'm a Virgo.........
