Which TV Series Are You Binging On?

I started Season 2 of my Orville rewatch last night, and I started The Clone Wars over the weekend. I've been meaning to see The Clone Wars eventually, but the recent episode of The Mandalorian got me motivated to get it going pretty quickly. I'm going chronological order based on the Star Wars website.
 
Late to the game, but I've been watching the Jack Ryan series. I didn't think I'd be able to get my brain to process "Jim from The Office" as a rockstar CIA analyst, but the actor makes it work. It's not as sophisticated as Homeland, but it's been an entertaining binge show for me.

I like it very much. The writing by David Hare is, of course, excellent. I'm a big fan of his, especially after his Page Eight, part of the Worricker Trilogy (with Bill Nighy, Chris Walken, Helena Bonham-Carter, Winona Ryder and many other greats). Hugh Laurie is one of those actors whose work, I feel, has gotten more interesting as he's aged. The casting is excellent too and includes some other favorites like Saskia Reeves, Patricia Hodge, and Sarah Greene (an Irish actress who was mostly seen as Cassie Maddox in the Dublin Murders, based on Tana French's books, of which I'm also a fan).

You got me to watch it, and I’ve enjoyed the first three episodes with one awaiting this evening. Thanks for the excellent referral. My first intro to David Hare and I’ll be looking at his other works, again thanks to you.

Have enjoyed Roadkill with 3 of 4 episodes watched so far. Best new series for me has been Queen’s Gambit. Love the work that Anya Taylor-Joy has done as the lead, and it made me go back to another current favorite: Endeavor. She appeared in a 2014 episode called “Nocturne” in Endeavor’s 2nd season.

And now for something entirely different: A Discovery of Witches. Interesting series about witches, vampires, demons, and how the three species try to avoid humans and detection by humans. More interesting than it sounds.

OK, here is the latest on Season 4 of Ozark:

Ozark Season 4: 9 Quick Things We Know About The Netflix Show

Criminals, the Byrde family, and fans are super excited for Ozark Season 4. Ozark Season 3 ended with a bang, so we can only imagine what’s next for Marty
www.cinemablend.com www.cinemablend.com

No date yet, but it sure looks enticing! Also, note the choices for the family:

"I think it’s safe to assume that Ozark’s final season will deal with the Byrdes facing major consequences for their actions over the last three seasons, and whether that means death, jail time, or taking on new identities and moving to another country."

Well, the same could have been said for the excellent series The Americans, which ran for 6 seasons:

"I think it’s safe to assume that The Americans' final season will deal with the Jennings facing major consequences for their actions over the last five seasons, and whether that means death, jail time, or taking on new identities and moving to another country."

For the Jennings, of course, they would up moving back to Russia, but without their children. I think the Byrdes will get a new identity and move to another country (it almost happened during Season 2), but unsure what will happen with the kids.

I'm a big fan of Endeavour too, although haven't watched season 7 yet. I own all of the Morse and Lewis series as well and find them very re-watchable.
 
I have just finished watching all 6 seasons of Schitt's Creek on Netflix.

I really had no awareness of this show until I saw that it swept all of the Emmy awards for this year just a couple of months ago. I thought, if it is that good then I should check it out. The premise initially would not have appealed to me, but it turns out to be a great show, and a very enjoyable show to be watching during these difficult times.

It may be a series, but I don’t care; this commercial is better than 90% of any other show out there today!

and I might even go buy the damn noodles myself!! 😂


BL.
 
Anything on Apple TV worth watching?

If watched Defending Jacob, For All Mankind, The Morning Show, Amazing Stories.

Anything else worth watching?
 
Watching Stargate: Universe (again), still angry they struck the sets before having a chance to do the "closure" movie that was being talked about...!

Netflix is calling to me after that, with "Queen's Gambit" & "Big Mouth"...

And I want to go back to some of the Netflix Marvel stuff as well...!
