Finished Lupin -- really good; saw that another season is in the works. Watched "The Professor and the Madman" starring Mel Gibson and Sean Penn. Outstanding but kinda dark...

Also watching Reign (with my spouse) and Knightfall (by myself.) Lots of blood in these...but intriguing story lines and well made.

I started watching Knightfall. Same characters and story as the Musketeers (UK tv show from a few years ago). Literally took out Musketeers and replaced with Templars.

I finally got around to watching the first 3 episodes of the final season of Bosch early this morning.

Man, those episodes just kinda fly by and it's hard not to keep watching!

I'm trying to stretch it out a bit so I can savour as much as possible.

Not easy with such a great show.

Also.....Coltrane! In 2 different cameo appearances, so far....yah!!!

We started episode 5 last night. I love this series.

With Maddie as the next gen?

I think so. plus Bosch will still be in it as a PI.

Is that a regular series or an antholpgy like TZ or Outer Limits?

Bosch is a fantastic book series, I’ll ha e to check out the show.
Just started Bad Blood on Netflix. Canadian Sooranos with Kim Coates from Sons of Anarchy and some other familiar mob movie faces

Regular series. Sad that is only lasted 3 seasons.

Loki is really good. Probably the best MCU production since Infinity War.

Meant to quote
I don’t know if it was Covid shutdown related but the end of season 2 was a little odd to me. Hopefully they will make a third season

Someone recommended Vikings, on Peacock, to me. What say you?

Vikings is a definite watch -- we thought it was very good!! Watched via Prime a few years ago. Heads-up that parts are VERY graphically bloody.

I've been binge watching "The Blacklist" from the first year on...on Netflix. Amazing how much I forgot from 7+ years ago...fun to see the character and relational developments. I love RR's response when asked if he had killed anyone: "None that didn't deserve it." As if he judge and jury and executioner.

Roll Red Roll on Netflix is a fascinating (not in a good way) documentary of a powerhouse HS football program in Ohio that had allowed a "rape culture" to set in for a long time. My wife and I stumbled across it the other night and were floored that this was literally both a national and global story and we knew nothing about it.

I know this is supposed to be a Netflix/Prime thread, but there are 2 excellent shows on Apple TV+ that alone make it worth getting (I have a free year from getting a new iPhone). The first is Ted Lasso which I'm sure has already been mentioned somewhere in this thread. The other is For All Mankind, with the premise of what might have happened had the Soviets beaten the US to the moon (yes, it would have been impossible in reality given the limits of Soviet technology), and posits a far more interesting space program than what we ended up with after the successes of Apollo. Can't recommend it highly enough!!
