TV shows you most recently finished watching

Just finished 2nd. season of Undercover:

Wonderful Belgian series, of an undercover cop in the ecstasy mob. Beautiful landscapes, two beautiful ladies and a beating plot.

I liked best the 1st. season but only because of the tone, for me both are top-notch.
Netflix.

Inhuman Resources featuring former (great!) soccer player Eric Cantona:

French series; found it very enjoyable. Only 6 chapters on Netflix.

Justo Antes de Cristo (Just Before Christ):

Spanish series; an absurd / Monty Python-esque (not that much) take on Imperial Rome, relating the whereabouts of a disgraced noble, Manio Sempronio, on Thrace with general Cneo Valerio Acquila. Loved it. Laughed a lot! Saw it on Movistar.

ok that's a relief

^It's not done yet. they suspended it half way through season 5 due to Covid.

There is still lots of story to go yet.

A weaker offering than the first two seasons IMHO.

Like Star Trek Discovery, it seems to have had less than stellar  writing.

My wife was bugging me to watch this series for the last year or so.

Very enjoyable, although by season 4 it was getting a little heavy.

5 seasons was certainly enough but I would recommend it if you have never seen it.

Deadwater Fall     - Grim small-town intrigue, well produced.  Not bad, not great.

The Crown  Season 3    - Nice to see Josh O'Connor (The Durrells in Corfu) enhancing this ever-changing series and continue to emerge as a wonderful young actor.

The Days & Nights of Molly Dodd     Now here's a treat from the past with Blair Brown as a quirky 1980s New Yorker who is fascinated by off-beat people but can't seem to meet the right man.   Unusual, even eccentric, for a network show at that time.   Think Annie Hall meets Crossing Delancey.

The Bachelorette     Always hated this show, still do.  But this season is too hard to ignore as the original 'lady' left soon after the season began and had to be replaced by a stronger and more interesting woman.   Oh yeah, I went there.

Not a fan of chess, but I've liked everything that Anya Taylor-Joy has ever been in.

Fan of Pennyworth...really enjoyed season 1,,,hope 2 is as good.

I watched His Dark Materials last year and finished season 1 but I haven't started watching season 2 yet.  I'm trying to catch up on a few others, but it's good to hear it's still enjoyable.

I found the two documentary series about the Nixium cult quite fascinating ("The Vow" and "Seduced").  They both lend a lot of insight into how people can get brainwashed into thinking strange beliefs and odd behavior can be "normal" in their eyes.  It's quite shocking what people can get bluffed into.  The great thing about both of these shows is that there is a ton of inside video since "Vangard" (Keith Ranier) wanted to record everything.
