The Expanse is great throughout.
3 eps into Good Omens. Just wonderful.

HBO Chernobyl is excellent. I was pretty ignorant except for the very basics. Excellent drama and I learned loads. Didnât realize that Chernobyl was potentially a huge disaster for much of the world.

I just finished Season 2⌠the writing is so fucking savage itâs ridiculous. Might be the first âsitcomâ in a really long time I binge watch all the way through. I hope the writing keeps up among all 7 seasons!

Julia Louis-Dreyfus was asked which was her fav episode directly before the airing of the last one, and she said the last one - I thought, yeah, sure, I call BS, but when I watched it I kinda agreed. 
Have a great ride!

Iâm really into to Too Old to Die Young. Its from the director of Drive so Iâm sure there are few fans of that movie around this forum. It have the aesthetic feel and tone of Drive and only God forgives, with the same minimal dialogue/long pauses. Reviews arenât glowing, but in fairness every episode is like an hour and half long and you probably kinda have to be into that sort of thing. Good sound design and solid cast in it too.

I normally hate âreality TVâ shit with a passion, and it is extraordinarily lame. However âBlown Awayâ on Netflix was quite enjoyable.
A contest featuring some of the worldâs best glassblowers competing to make stuff under the clock. Pretty cool actually, there was some talented fuckers on it.

I donât subscribe to Netflix, Foxtel, or other pay television systems. They cost a lot of money and that is something I donât have enough of at present. When I was somewhat younger I bought a number of science fiction novels. Today they are including fantasy as well in the genre which I find annoying along with shock-horror. I have found a few interesting sci-fi clip in You Tube that show real talent.

Finished watching Good Omens.
Just wonderful. Great interpretation of the book. Sheen and Tennant were tremendous every time they were together. Best not-a-couple-honest-guv ever

Yeah, completely agree, was a great watch! But I have to stop watching trailers. If you know the book AND watch the trailers, thereâs basically not so much new in there. Itâs still an awesome watch with great actors that seem to have been made for the roles. And who knew Dcotor Who would become pissed off enough by humans to try his luck as a demon?

I havenât watched it, but it sounds likes so many series that carry the seeds of their own destruction.

The handmaids tale first episode some of it was awkwardly executed and as a result some scenes came were unintentionally humorousâŚsecond episode I zoned out and was taking napsâŚand thatâs as far as I got
I get the premise but itâs kinda slow, and wierdâŚI give it bonus points for realism and handling dark topicsâŚhowever i do not expect to get âwokeâ just because I watched 2 epsâŚthe assumption that it makes a person woke is the only negative thing about the showâŚwhich has nothing to do with show and more so the person watching itâŚ
also to me the premise of the story is similar to the children of men( with Clive owen and julianne moore) and maybe 1984 and with a touch a brave new world but in an alternative perspectiveâŚ
but those are my first impressions so if you decide to watch it Iâd say disregard my review and think for yourself, personally I think it would of been better if it was more espionagey like atomic blonde or that movie red sparrowâŚbut hey to each their ownâŚ

Iâm really enjoying the silliness of Another Life. Seems like a mix of Elite Dangerous/No Manâs Sky/Star TrekâŚ

The first season is great. Second season falls on its ass repeatedly, and I couldnât even get through the first episode of season 3.
Itâs turned into the most futile slow crawling drama ever. I canât stand it. But the first season was an incredible set up and overall story.
