This week I have mainly been watching

Love it when they just drop the plates in the swimming pool.

There were so many moments of joy, and even the minor support roles were spot on.
Very surreal, but, I loved the interaction between the two lead characters, and the way their thoughts were portrayed on virtually every occasion.

I discovered The Old Man on Disney+ with Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow. Brilliant. Best thing since Slow Horses! Second series even better than the first.

I’ve nearly finished the first series, the bloody World Cup is getting in the way.
So far, I really like it, parts of it are a bit slow, but, I think that adds to the atmosphere.
It’s one of them dramas that you ignore your feelings about who’s in it, and just immerse yourself in the plot.
Up to now I would really recommend to anyone who likes mysteries spy type stuff and give it a serious chance.
It’s on Disney plus.
 
Just gone onto Disney+ to continue watching The Old Man, thanks Nick and they’re now showing
Justified
One of my favourite series of all time, originally written by Elmore Leonard and with a cast including Timothy Olyphant, Wayne Goggins and Margo Martindale.

You’d be daft not to give it a go!!!!!!
imo

Justified is one of my all time favourites too. Goggins was incredible in that. I enjoyed the new Justified series too, don't know why they never made a second season.
 
I’ve just been pointed in the direction of The Following, only watched the first episode, so a bit early to tell if it’s going to be worth watching, but I will give it a go.

If that's the one with James Purefoy as the cult leader, I thought it was pretty good. Surprised it didn't have more seasons.

Yes, it’s that one. Only just started it, but my first gripe is that it’s a bit too fast from one scene to the next.
I prefer slow burners that build up to a certain twist, and then continue on to the next one.
Nevertheless I will continue to watch more before forming a better opinion.
 
I’ve now watched 3 episodes of The Following, and have decided not to bother with any more.
It just seems so false, and so typical of American Tv where everything seems fast, fast, fast.
Certainly better USA dramas out there, many of them I have already watched, and I’m sure there are many more to look forward to.

Deadwood is something else I need to watch. Hit the DVDs somewhere and now they’ve finished it off with a film it makes sense to watch. Didn’t want to watch something that just ended abruptly and left you hanging.
 
Just watched the whole of Legends on Netflix. Very good. About undercover customs in the early nineties. Steve Coogan is very impressive in a serious role with very little Partridge moments.

Tom Burke is brilliant.
