don't know if i already posted this but quite leisurely working through Schitts Creek (couple of episodes a night 3 times a week usually) and have to say it's brilliant. weird, quirky, uncomfortable sometimes but utterly brilliant.

Tbh, my memory isn't good enough to tell you what happened or how good each season was. It had a solid story, great characters and a great ending. I do remember I loved an episode in S3, really got to me, to be honest. I've only seen it through once, but will do a second time soon.
No way!? I LOVE BB and Justified (latter being way underrated) . OK I will carry on with it, I just felt the charachters were a bit cliche but I'll carry on

- Death Star or Mount Doom, it depends on the day.
The Ranch. It's fine.
Everyone please watch Justified and Banshee. That's all.

Finished Sherlock (4 seasons and a special, which apparently I should have watched at the end of season 3(?))
It is good, but it's not as good as the IMDb score had me thinking it might be. There are some bits where I think it gets a little lazy. (Just shooting the media mogul... really? And then basically walking free) When you realise how similar Holmes is to Sheldon from TBBT it has rather a weird slant on it too
Maybe unpopular opinion but I thought Elementary was better.

Stick with it, it's really great. It also has one of the most satisfying endings to a TV series that I've ever seen.

I remember getting episode 6 of season one and then being hooked. IMO it only got confusing later because of the massive gap between the season. If someone new to it were watching now, it would be much easier to follow.
Added to that, if you can speak some German and are more familiar with German names, it would be much easier to follow too.
Quite happy it was a Netflix show as it should mean there isn't ever a US-based remake like they tried and failed twice with Les revenants once that drew some acclaim.
I bought the bluray box set of Breaking Bad about 8 years ago, and I still haven't got round to watching itOoooh, let us know how you get on. Maybe you've found a little known hidden gem?

Started House Of The Dragon last night.
Same. I enjoyed it, but I think it misses not jumping back and forth between the different families. I didn't think till after, but that was one thing that made the early GoT so epic to me.
Also watching That Dirty Black Bag as I do enjoy western-type shows. Is quite good, still got a few eps to go.
Also enjoying the new season of Resident Alien.
Industry has started back up too. It's a little like Billions I guess, half the time I have no idea what they're talking about or what's actually going on.
