I haven't watched the reindeer thing, don't know anything about it. I've just watched this interview and... uh, pathological liar.
I have one of these (liar, not stalker) in my life and no wonder I'm f'king exhausted.
Get help, woman.

I've seen the first two seasons. My wife tapped out after the first.

Enjoyed the season finale of Beyond Paradise ... especially that wonderful pull-back to show the entire town over the closing credits.

Paradise episodes are just fun and charming . I really love this franchise. I am so glad I went back and gave it another try. A fair shake.

....been catching up on all the episodes.....whether you believe or not, this is a hard science investigation that has revealed  fascinating data in the Unitah Basin.....

Bodkin — Netflix. First episode in, it’s got me.

Started Sugar on Apple TV+ -- looks great!
We have one episode left of Shogun. It's a terrific series.

Bev, I see you watched 3 of Veronica.  I watch first two seasons and i can’t remember details but my overall feeling was a bit disappointed. 

Is season 3 a strong one?

I watched the first episode and got distracted. It's not the greatest show, for sure, but it's always interesting to see what other countries are producing.

After the Flood on Britbox starts out a bit shaky but it gets better and better as it goes along. And the flooding footage is really well done.

Bodkin on Netflix -- an expat Irish journalist forced to team up with an American podcaster and his researcher to investigate a 20+ year old Samhain mystery in an Irish village. A good mix of vastly different characters.

I’m on episode 3 of this. I almost moved on but having a hard time finding anything to interest me, so hung in. It is getting better.

Bodkin was fun. I thought everyone did a good job and I would come back for a season 2. 

I really like the lead girl, Siobhán Cullen. She is in a quirky series called Obituary that is also fun. 

She writes obits and to keep her job that the local paper wants to do away with, she kills people.

A desperate father, alongside a tenacious cop, battles his own demons on the streets of 1980s New York as he searches for his missing nine-year-old son.



Interesting.  I was most certainly  baffled by the appearance of the um..  You have to see.

Has anyone watched McDonald & Dodds (Britbox)? There are four seasons -- I watched the first episode on a whim and quite liked it.

Yes. 🙂 well, watch-ing. I see potential.

Hedda Gabler

Just to add, dodds seems to be an underestimated Columbo type. 

BevVincent

Yes, very much so. I like their chemistry.

I've been watching 'The Judge' on Netflix.  Very good.
(and I just discovered that the judge is Walter White/Bryan Cranston) 
ha he's at it again.

not_nadine

Sorry - Its called 'Your Honor" not 'The Judge'

....The Mayor of Kingstown is simply frickin' awesome.....

I really like Dark Matter on Apple TV+ -- it's a fresh take on the multiverse content. Reminds me a bit of the German series Dark.

not_nadine

I have to say it again.  This is awesome -  I am on season 2.  Netflix.

Presumed Innocent on Apple TV+. The usual high quality production I've come to expect from them. However, I'm so familiar with the novel and the original Harrison Ford movie that I'm wondering what they're bringing to it that's new. I'll stick with it, but I keep hearing echoes from the 1990 film.
