Counterpart season 2 just finished.

Great show this, gutted it's been cancelled

Still got the final episode to watch

I just started Bojack Horseman, about 6 episodes in and although a few laughs, it's a bit meh. I heard this picks up, should i stick with it?

I'd heard it picked up in the third season, but found myself loving the first one so thought perhaps 'people' were wrong.

Turns out, it gets even better in S3 - magical stuff.

Whilst funny, it's not really a comedy, IMO, so don't go in expecting belly laughs and broad humour.

I'll stick with it then!

This, amazing show, but super dark at times.

Todd gets the most laughs, the "Becca Chavez" skit was hilarious.

Went back to watching New Girl (season 4) as me and the wife wanted some easy comedy with the limited TV time we get at the moment. It never clicked with me a lot before but Winston is absolutely killing me watching it again, even Schmidt has his moments...and Cece never gets boring on the eye.

AndyCr15 · 21 Feb 2019 at 08:38

I think Schmidt is one of the better TV characters in recent time tbh.

Just did the final season of Catastrophe which was great and will be missed and then Season 2 of Counterpart. That was a quality thriller. There's a lot of talk of #savecounterpart but it would take Netflix or Amazon's budget to pick it up off Starz who paid for 2 seasons right off the bat.

I'm binging Iron Fist Season 2. It's much, much better than the first season. Still iffy, but much more watchable than Season 1.

Viewing figures of only 200k apparently

Think there's a chance another channel may pick it up though, fingers crossed...

Here's hoping Ivan, sick of good shows getting cancelled.

+1 for Russian Doll, managed to get the Mrs off her Drag Race binge to consume this over the weekend

Funnily enough since you posting this the other day, Schmidt has been amazing in the last few episodes i've watched.

Watched Derry Girls on Channel 4 OD. It was really very good. Lived up to the hype I'd heard about it

Now starting on Final Space.

Started watching '4 Blocks' last nights. It's on Prime. German 'gangster' type show set in Berlin. First ep was pretty interesting will carry on watching.

After being recommended Bosch we are now coming to the end of Series 3 via Prime. Great series so far, Titus Welliver playing the role of Bosch - and doing a damn good job at doing so.
I also like some of the lesser known characters of the series, like the two detectives "Barrel and Crate". Good to know that both seasons 5 and 6 have been confirmed.

MoRT489 · 23 Feb 2019 at 19:37

Bosch 1-3 were fantastic, really suspenseful but season 4 felt slow, I haven’t managed to get all the way through it.

Been watching True Detective S3, watched the first 4, but I'm going to wait until it's all been on and watch them all over a few evenings. I can't cope with an episode a week.

Also watching American Gods on Amazon, very good, but bizarre.
Leftovers S1 as well, only done 1st episode so far.

The last episode is on tomorrow so you might as well crack on with it! (Ep 8)
