Finished House of Cards. Was kind of disappointed in the end. That show apparently crashed and burned along with Kevin Spacey.

Started watching the 5 part series Turning Point on Netflix last night. I’ll need a new series next week.

Listen carefully... that link will only work once...

The wife found a delightful show from the BBC called "Ghosts". Just binged all three seasons and freaking loved it.
It's been the best thing on the BBC in recent years - the third series has just aired but, dare I say, not as good to my my mind as the previous ones, but the last episode was still pretty decent. If you can get it in the States etc Plebs (three blokes in Ancient Rome) is another really, really funny watch - particularly the early episodes.

I've been been watching Haikyuu!!

My daughter started playing volleyball at school. Being the anime/manga otaku that I am, naturally, I took to watching an anime about volleyball. Being a parent, it is my role to embarrass her in front of her peers.? If you're at a middle school volleyball game and see some old dude yelling "Henjin sokko, henjin sokko! Do 'freak quick!'" That would be me.??

Do you know if it is on Netflix or another streaming service? I will look around for it, but we found ghosts by accident, we were looking for another show that had the word ghosts in it lol... Great show and I agree, the last episode was great and I am glad they cleaned up the and closed the "sister" story line...

I have absolutely no idea how to describe this show. Comedy? Horror? Drama? Thriller? Splatter? Romantic? No idea.
One thing I can tell you however is that it's not for the faint of heart. If you decide to watch it, be prepared for some serious weirdness and quite a few disturbing scenes and events. This is probably the most deranged show I have ever seen, and its quality is extraordinary. I watch many surreal/weird movies, and this show really surprised me, which is quite a feat. I will not spoil anything, or even discuss the plot. Viewers beware, and enjoy the show.

Plebs is on BritBox - this is the uk link but BritBox is internationally available I think.

I LOVE this show! I am really hoping there is a S4 of the BBC show. I binged all 3 seasons on HBO Max in like a week! lol. A US version of it is premiering soon and I'm curious it'll go in the way of Coupling or The Office in terms of US remakes.

I wonder how you’d approach a rewrite as it’s actually by the Horrible Histories team who’ve already got a real chemistry. HH is a kids history show here on the BBC but all the adults I know love it. Been going for years - here’s a link to their YouTube channel so you get an idea.

Yes, I’m familiar with the show. Horrible Histories is pretty popular here as well and available on Hulu.

I just recently finished watching Bosch on Amazon Prime. I am sad that there won't be anymore after Series 7. ☹️ I loved the books, and they had done such a great job with the show.

There will be additional seasons, however it is moving to IMDB TV. I believe that is another subscription type service being provided by Amazon.

Bosch is one of our favorites too! Loved the show and loved the books even more!

Started this tonight on your recommendation. It’s a wild ride. Three episodes in and I’m excited for the rest of it. Thanks. Wouldn’t have touched it otherwise.

Loved that show. I believe that the season prior to the last one wasn't good at all, but the last season is surprisingly good.
I think Big Bang Theory was best in Seasons 1-5 and slowly declined in quality for the remainder of its run. I loved it all the way through but it was never as funny as it was in the early seasons.

Currently watching final season of Lucifer. I'm going to miss this show.

Glad you're liking it! Let me know what you think about it when you finish it. It's so weird...

Absolutely loved Lucifer!!!! Save this and when you finish watching all of season 6, check it out. Not before, it has a ton of spoilers but it's great..
