Finished S1 of Only Murders In The Building and moved on to S2. Seems a nice enough watch.

I believe the TV series is set before the file, but honestly it's so separate that i wouldn't worry about it.

Never bothered with Curb Your Enthusiasm but really enjoyed Season 11 that I had access to so starting from the top. May finish it by Xmas.

Passenger on ITV. Phoenix Nights meets The Wicker Man. Strange goings on in a small northern village, punctuated with the minutiae of village life.
I was pleasantly surprised at how moreish this was. I fell asleep during episode 4 cos I stayed up way past bedtime desperate to know what happened next. Will aim to complete it today. It's only 6 episodes.

Almost finished Sexy Beast, it's a prequel to the film with Ray Winston and it's been pretty decent so far.

There is a fantastic new documentary called Violent Minds: Killers on tape.
Just making my way through the first one and there is lots of footage that I haven't seen of him where he is being video recorded by friends.
Just copied and pasted what was written on IMDB.
"Follows the captivating inmate tapes of renowned psychologist Dr. Al Carlisle, exposing the psychopathic nature of Ted Bundy, the Hifi Killers, Arthur Gary Bishop and more".

Binged The Bear season 1, what a great show
Agree with @Martynt74 the order doesn't really matter, the film drew me into the series.
It depends on if you would like to know the outcome first or the back story and build up to the moment. It works either way from what I've seen. If you watch the film first, it's 2 hours of your life, you'll know if the story intrigues you enough to watch more. I think the series was produced after the film.
Scavengers Reign, unsure at the start but once it got going I really liked it.

Working through The Gone now on BBC. Fine if not particularly enthralling police procedural about two cops from two different countries (Ireland and NZ) trying to solve a double missing person case (two Irish tourists, a couple, vanish into to thin air one night). A lot of predictable beats so far, Irish cop has trouble that he's keeping secret, NZ cop is Maori and there's a lot of local family issues and so on.
A bit paint by numbers but will fill a few nights viewing.

I'll definitely be watching series 2 whenever it comes out.
I watched all 3 seasons recently and look forward to season 4. There is a few too many silly scenes, flashbacks and jumping around but i think they were trying to keep it unpredictable and fresh over the sheer run time of the seasons.

I much preferred Passenger on ITV to be fair and if they do a second season of that I'll be well on it.
In a not dissimilar vein, The Resort had a good spooky mystery vibe and it was tight 30m episodes albeit 10 of them.

We started to watch The Gentleman on the train to Belgium the other week and have been too busy to carry on lately.
Ideally as we are only a couple in I was tempted to get the OH to watch the movie first, as she has not seen it and then continue with the series.

The Gentlemen finished, could have been 2 episodes shorter. Time for something else

I'm the other way around and have only seen the first episode.
Have had that one on my binge list for a while now.

Yeah I watched the whole of that and loved it, Neil Patrick Harris really is a treasure.
