I'm currently nearing the end of The Streets of San Francisco and it's a steep drop! Smile

^ HBO I think.

Just started on A Discovery of Witches. I wasn't expecting too much tbh, but it's pretty good. Second season has just aired too.

I only managed 5 minutes so you did better than I did LOL

Sounds interesting. Who produces it?

Yep that was excellent and should have continued.

Just about the only streaming platform I don't have is Disney +. It does look very interesting going by the trailers.

I grew tired of Dexter, have yet to watch the last season. It was brilliant when it first came out though but then it all became a little formulaic and his sister used to drive me spare.

^Watched it for the first time several month's ago at my wife's behest.
Much better than I expected it to be, even it did get darker as the seasons went on.

Currently enjoying WandaVision. Interested to see where it goes.

one of my favourite shows of all time. Thumbs Up

Michael C Hall of course went on to do Dexter , a show that apparently is being primed for a return.

I think it would have worked better as self contained 'Limited Series' offering with less episodes. It was compared to the Netflix show The Stranger which in some respects was much better.

One of my fav shows, I really need to watch it again too!

David Tenant absolutely nails 80's Scottish serial killer Dennis Nilsen.
Three 45 min. episodes for a tight little mini series.
Great Brit Drama.

Absolutely agree. One of the best shows I’ve watched in a while.

Just finished another BBC series Traces. A six parter shot in Dundee about a young woman returning to her old stomping ground trying to find out more about the disappearance of her Mother some years earlier. Based on an idea by famous crime writer Val McDermid, I found it a little predictable if I'm honest. It does however have a very strong cast and that made it worth watching although its IMDB rating of 6.9 is about right.

in her last case she had to deal with underage prostitution. young men befriending underage girls and then telling them some cock-and-bull story about owing money to someone and asking them to do "a favor" for them. and she got the top criminals in this case too but then was, most unusually, killed by a flash of lightning. we will miss her; it was one of our favorite cop shows because of her uniqueness

I have to say she went out in style. At one point she said "I am not difficult, I polarize". At another point she told her boss that he had no balls when he suspended her because a wealthy winemaker, who later turned out to be the boss of that underage prostitution gang, had complained to him about how he had been treated by her. I think even Dirty Harry would not have dared that.

^ yep , if you like that then check out Ghost: Powerbook II. Very enjoyable if not quite as 'serious'.

Top of the Lake was mentioned. Season One featured the great Scottish actor Peter Mullan who was also very impressive in Ozark . He makes everything he's in better!

Season one of The Godfather of Harlem.
Excellent series, a sort of combination of Boardwalk Empire, The Godfather and Black Caesar.

DCs Doom Patrol second time binged, a brillian and one of a kind tv show.

DCs Swamp Thing season 1. One of the best superhero shows out there.
