Can't wait for that. The first series was fantastic.

Just started watching Power - very good so far

What is it with Power?! By any accepted standards it is absolutely dreadful, trashy nonsense. But it's so addictive, I love it! Proper guilty pleasure having just binged S01 in two evenings straight.

Apparently it starts on 2nd September with all 10 episodes debuting at the same time.

Another vote for Spotless. Really decent thriller.

Just got into Stranger Things. Not usually into these sorts of programmes but its so well made and the actings great - quite enjoying it.

I've just watched episode 1. I can see a massive binge happening and I'll watch the rest in the next couple of days.

I binged on Stranger Things,loved it,I presume there will be a second season

Just found The Fuzz, a comedy with cops and drug dealers,but half the cast are Muppets
Only seen 1 episode so far but laughed a lot

Also see Garfunkel and Oates have a TV series,hope that is good too.

Been avoiding that, thinking it was a fanboi fest. Good then is it?

He was a scary bloke, but had really great insights into how crap corporate businesses would lose the plot (IBM, Xerox etc). I also completely agree with his comments about Microisoft (from that era). I had both PCs and Macs at the time and there was a world of difference.

Is Wallander worth watching?

Also cannot get into "orange is the new black" and seen about 4 episodes. Does it change/improve?

I love OITNB but if it hasnt hooked you in 4 episodes it's probably not going to

I thought The Fuzz was really good. Good use of puppets and dark stories!

Excellent!

Been wanting to watch that again for some time, the wife hasn't seen it. That's my televisual viewing for this evening sorted.

And few episodes of Luke Cage tomorrow night

Binge watched Last Chance U this week. Excellent series.. stick with it.. last 2 episodes in particular are outstanding. Kind of like a real life Friday Night Lights.

I've tried watching Bloodline, about three episodes in so far and have to say it is dull.

Does anyone know if it ramps up a bit? It seems to have good reviews but it is a yawny yawn fest thus far for me.

I've watched it all. And I rate it highly.
But I have a lonely life in reality where not much happens, so this fitted perfectly.
It reminded me of Lost, lots of looks and mood, and talking.... and maybe one significant thing happens per episode. Its suits the Florida lazy holiday vibe, but yeah, you either commit or don't. I found it easier to get into than Breaking Bad....
