It's a sci-fi set in Berlin, and it's pretty convoluted. From what I've gathered the protagonist is a Jack Beuer type. I'd give it a go...it's very good.
Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?

Well Jack Bauer is one of if not THE greatest of Protagonists, right @esmufc07 so most definitely will give it a go, but not before I got onto Doom Patrol

I've only seen two episode but that's the vibe I get!
I've finished all three seasons of Doom Patrol, I loved the fact it was character driven with accidental superheroes full of flaws.
This looks intriguing…
Season 1 was good enough to watch season 2 but I got bored with season 2 and when it was cancelled I stopped watching half way through never to return.
Brasic is worth watching imo.
One weird show thats hard to recommend is Dave. Most of season 1 was some of the funniest stuff I've seen on tv. Like multiple laugh out loud moments with a great cast and sharp writing. But they also have a habit of making more 'artsy' episodes which completely get rid of the comedy...some work (Gator based episodes), but most don't. And the 2nd season lost most of its humor. Its a weird show where they don't know if they want to make it a comedy or dramedy or whatever.
Counterpart?
It's a bit Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. I'm 7 episodes in and enjoying so far. It's blinking convoluted though - can't switch off.
Barry is back, first episode aired on Sunday. Great show if anyone hasn't seen it.
Yes. It is convoluted. By mid season 2 I ceased to care much and once cancelled I never went back.
I'm really enjoying it, Wibbs. J.K Simmons has been very good. I like the Berlin setting and all.
I liked season 1 and I also like J.K. Simmons. Hopefully you enjoy season 2 more than we did.
Half way thought Evil season 2, I think its very good.
I love this Spader is perfect for the role, the season are just to long and I agree some of the eps are just not good, but over all, well worth watching.
Waiting for all of season 9 to be out, then going to binge over a few days.
I like it so far. Someone said it’s like Twin Peaks meets Yellowstone; I couldn’t say whether that’s accurate, but I dig it.
Severance
Chivalry (Steve Coogan; C4) is decent.
Seriously, Tokyo Vice is amazing. So good. Last episode airs today in the states I think.
How many episodes in total?
Just watched the 6th and final episode of the first season of Slow Horses (Apple+).
Fantastic show! It is a spy show with rejects. Gary Oldman is great, and all the other actors are good, too. The story respects the intelligence of the viewer and makes sense. Recommended!

Finished season 1. I thought it was brilliant...it's probably the most convoluted TV series I've ever seen.

I watched the finale last night and its ended well and sets the tone for Season 2.
I've got Tokyo Vice, Severance and Ted Lasso on my list. It's great that Apple TV's doing a free month's trial.
Winning time showed some promise but is actually total garbage. Why have they made so many changes to pretty much all the characters? As well as actual scores of the games. None of the changes even make the storyline any better. And the basketball scenes are pretty much worst sporting scenes in the history of tv. Should have given up couple of episodes ago.
my thoughts exactly
Killing Eve on the BBC1 is a good comedy, it's billed as a drama/thriller but it's so predictable and the bits that are supposed to be scary are as funny as Only Fools and Whorses, so it's well worth the watch.
I've just finished s2 of Mr Inbetween. This show is a real diamond. I put off watching as it just didn't sound interesting but feck, that was a mistake.
A truly great watch and it feels slept on in the UK

I thought the first season of Your Honor was sensational.
Not sure what the story is with season 2. I'd be very disappointed if it didn't happen.

It's good but I stopped watching it. Anyway, I'm still loving Counterpart...I'm on the second season.
You stopped? But it’s amazing you swine!
The season 3 finale is one if the best bits of TV ever.
Keep watching. Way better than Counterpart and they nail the landing on the final episode -season 3.
I have anxiety about the show finishing tbh. I need a few days to get over the ending of season 2. I think they handled it very well.
Anyone seen Hacks??
Season one is okaay. It has its moments. But the new season is supposed to be really good. Jean Smart is always fun to watch.
I've loved Counterpart far more than Mr Inbetween that said I'll go back to it.

I envy anyone watching it for the first time, easily one of my favorite short series ever.
While I wish they made more, I think part of its perfection is it's length.
Yeah I enjoyed season one very much, I thought it was great, and it's not usually a genre I go out of my way to watch, so it really was very good. Looking forward to season to as well.
The Offer - compelling first episode.
