Agreed, Definitely in my top 3.
I remember seeing some headlines around Reylan coming back in something...
I think I'm thinking of Lie to Me? (Not that I've seen it)

If I recall he uses science, micro-expressions and so, to deduce if someone is fibbing. In this series, she has a 'gift'.

I started watching that after seeing preview of it on documentary on RBS. I can't recommend it though, it's a hard watch, the dialogue is painful, the characters behave like their from another dimension (I guess that's the point but still) and the acting is generally hovers between below average to average. Going off the Rotten Tomatoes score it's one of those shows that's obviously backed paid press and has a much less favourable audience score.
I only get through the episode 4 after which I just gave up and stopped watching so maybe I'm being unfair but from what I've seen so far I'm not convinced that it will get much better.

Just had a look and realise I didn't post, but yes, I stopped watching this, which doesn't happen much once I've started a show.
Caporegime
Justified was great, loved it from start to finish. Deadwood is another one worth watching if you need some more Olyphant after it
Permabanned
Watched the first ep, very good so far. Olyphant is good in this.

In January 2022, FX announced justified city primevil, a limited sequel series with Olyphant reprising his role as Raylan Givens. It is set to premiere in mid-2023.

NCIS: Vegas season 2 it's not as strong as CSI was, it's not as serious and it suffers from Tell not Show. We get everyone cooing over how knowledgeable someone is then you see them behaving like an unprofessional ass. It's not terrible and it hasn't been every episode but they're not "following the evidence".
There is a definite split between shows where the characters tell us things but don't show it which feel weak and those that show us not tell us which often feel more substantial.

I don't think I've seen mention of Strike (or CB Strike?). A quick search looks to be one mention back in 2017! Based on some JK Rowling novels, basically fairly standard private detective show, but S1 was 3 eps and I'm, erm... half way through S2 (or S1b) which is two eps...
Seems quite good though. On iPlayer.

I've watched them all and they're not too bad.
I wouldn't want to rewatch the whole series though like New Tricks or Breaking Bad.

I've found that's just as much about the type of show as it is how good the show is. I agree, it wouldn't be as good a second time around. BB is in my top 3, but wasn't nearly as good the second time round, when you know what's coming. GoT was way better the second time round when things made more sense.

FAUDA on Netflix, it's in Hebrew and watching it with subs. I'm really enjoying it and on season 2 of 4 at the moment. I find it interesting how everything stems from belief, the culture and the violence even to the point of how they talk and greet each other.

I actually preferred Breaking Bad a second time because it was less stressful!! Lol!
I know I'm weird
Just finished Season 2 of The Expanse and really enjoyed it. As with the first one it took me a while to get into.
It's a very believable world they have created but I couldn't tell you a single character's name except for Fred Johnson
I call BS! Amos is the man.
