What TV shows are you currently watching

Started watching "Manifest" on Netflix, it's a sort of sci-fi/mystery, it's not bad imo, keeping me guessing as to what's going on without being confusing.

Three EPS into "From", my hopes were not high, but I have been pleasantly surprised, it does have the look and feel of a small budget, no-name cast, kinda "B" series, but so far it has punched above its weight. I have watched many big budget, glossy, cinematic type shows that have sent me to sleep within minutes (looking at you Foundation) but this has at least held my interest.

It's not amazing, but you could do much worse.

I read a lot of horror themed websites and they rate this quite highly, obviously they have a slight bias to this kind of material but the general feel I get was that it's well characterised and doesn't rely on cheap gimmicks - slow'ish burn mystery, would that about sum it up?

Took a look at this based on your post. watched first couple of episodes, Judging from it appears that each episode will introduce a new passenger and follow them for the episode. The storyline etc isn't bad, it just suffers from relatively low production quality and some of the actors are a bit crap.

It was overall a decent show and it did get an actual ending.

I’ve just finished Rabbit Hole. Good and Kiefer was of course great, but it was a bit fubar in places.

Can't argue with that.
 
Watched first ep of Yellowjackets, enjoyed it. I'm hoping it wonlt keep hopping back and forth between the present and the events on the island as I'd like to be immersed in that world, but I think that's what's going to happen.
 
gangsS2 - that's a pity, like top boy / utopia .... originals, they gave a reference point on quality of a good quality tv series, rather than streamer mediocrity.
