Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?
- Thread starter Red Pavan
- Start date
I also watched the show recently. The first season can be hard viewing, it was excellent throughout though and finished well.
I like it, pretty engaging. Not a prototypical hijack show, it has some cute little twists to it to make it enjoyable.
All five shows currently on Netflix.
Losers - Looks at how athletes handle a crushing defeat. Whilst he's not an athlete, I wish there was on episode dedicated to Sam Alladyce's thoughts on being relegated for the first time.
Live to Lead presented by The Duke and Duchess of Sussex - Produced by Prince Harry and Meghan, the episodes look at the real life stories of influential leaders and includes themes of feminism, climate change, and racial equality.
Tidying up with Marie Kondo - Had the episodes in the background whilst doing my cleaning and picked up some strategies to apply to my own decluttering routine.
Working - What do we do all day. The only one on the list that I haven't watched yet, but the title sounds interesting.
Little Women (Korean drama) - Best tv show I've watched in 2023. Suicide is a major theme. Explores emotions associated with money. Eclectic personalities. I've taken inspiration from certain scenes and applied it to my own life.

Slow Horses - simply brilliant.
Finally got around to staring Jury Duty and it is indeed a lot of fun.
Episode 3 so far, I think visually it’s amazing and a great sound track but the story itself leaves a lot more to be desired. The Weeknd is a bit goofy.
Yeah totally agree. I've finished the full thing now, and I really like the cinematography and editing, but the story, dialogue, etc is GARBAGE.
Still enjoyed it though.
Me and the wife watched the last two episodes last night, thought it was garbage overall.
Watching Rabbit Hole, its not bad.
How'd they end the 3rd episode like that though... Feck sake. S3spoilers: Seems like the hijackers are being put up to it by a third party. Little ridiculous the boyfriend uncovered the hijackers before the anti terrorism unit. Enjoying it otherwise tho!
Mainly watched it because I'm seeing The Weeknd on Saturday. But the last 2 episodes were really entertaining for me contrary to the reviews.
I was the other way round and liked it less as it went on. I found the final season watchable but a bit meh.
Currently watching The Diplomat. Very good. Although not credible, it is still very engaging.
Just noticed that S3 of War of The Worlds dropped last year. I've watched the first 3 episodes of S3 and I'm still not convinced. Good enough to keep watching but not totally satisfying either.

If you liked Sarah Lancashire in Happy Valley then try Last Tango in Halifax - that's really good IMO as well
Tried watching Sick Note - absolute pile of shit. This is an anti-recommendation.
Wondering when Tokyo Vice season 2 will air, I was looking for some info and it seems like there's nothing out there. The fact Eggort and Watanabe are quite famous probably makes the filming complicated though. Really enjoyed the first season of that.
I enjoyed it far more than I expected and I'll be watching for season 2. The interwebs say filming started late in 22 and is expected to be released in autumn 23 but I guess you saw that. So hopefully not long.

Yeah Tokyo Vice was great, that and Severance are the two from last year I'm still waiting on a new season from.
Feels like shows take forever to release a second season these days, gone are the yearly releases

Would be a perfect little autumn fix. It was a nice show, overall tidy writing and really made you feel like you were in 1990s Tokyo. The cast was very too in general.
You've watched The Bear right?Yeah Tokyo Vice was great, that and Severance are the two from last year I'm still waiting on a new season from.

I watched Season 1 and the reveal was shite, was S2 any better?
Anyone watched Keep Breathing on Netflix? I like the genre of survival stuff, so would be right up my street, but I've read that it is intermingled with flashbacks about her love life, etc, and I can't be arsed with all that shite.
Oh yeah I'm on season two right now.
I enjoyed season 2 although I think in general it has slightly but gradually declined as it goes. I'm still watching S3 but only just.
Good boy
Interesting twist at the end.
Jack Ryan S4 started on prime. Enjoyed the first 3 seasons.
I do love me some Claire Danes...
I do love me some Timothy Olyphant.
The new Justified is getting great reviews, coming in 10 days.
Just could not stand her in Homeland after a point.
My ex-fiancee is basically her doppelganger, just can't shake the type.
Been watching Ghosts of Beirut and its pretty good so far. I don't know how historically accurate they've managed to stay and how much they've dramatized it but its great as a fast-paced thriller of sorts.
My missus wanted to was Alrawabi School For Girls on Netflix, so we watched it last week, was actually decent for a TV programme about Jordanian school girls. The revenge plot was good and was a decent watch in the end for something I was thinking would be absolutely shite.
7/10, add a bonus point for the cockney voice over for one of the girls brothers. Was like an Eastenders character.

THE BEAR 2nd season is utterly superb.
Go post in the right thread you whore
Can’t have enough miniseries based on this family’s intentional crimes…
