Impastor is good series - an easy going comedy about a con on the run who impersonates a pastor

Nope - Season 5 already commissioned for 2019, with plans for another the year after.

Bosch is simply excellent.

Totally wasted on Amazon. Should be available on other TV channels where I think it would do very well.

Bit late as usual but, I finally got round to watching 'Startup'.

I am absolutely hooked. Since Sunday, I've watched season 1 and all but 3 episodes of season 2.

Anyone know when Season 3 is due for release?
It's superb isn't it, up there with Bosch and Preacher as the best things on Prime for me

Not sure when S3 starts though

absolutely - one of my favourite light comedies. Binged S1 & S2 now waiting for S3 frown Now that I know it's on AP I'll let my sister know.



Another latecomer to Bosch - very good

Apparently Amazon have bought The Expanse, and commissioned a 4th series. I hope they also make the first 3 available, as I have not seen them and it sounds good.

No apparently about it - deal done over a month ago - there's an Expanse thread on PH.

I'm generally not into supernatural stuff and vampires etc so it's not my cup of tea. Same with things like Marvel stuff..... Just don't dig the superhero stuff.

Agree with some of the earlier thoughts on here regarding Goliath S2. I'm really not sure if I enjoyed it all that much or not, but I am sure that it wasn't a patch on the first season.



Plenty of unbelievable situations made it feel strange. Like the prison with the two amputees living in it, and the shoot and stab your way out of a house (he's a drunk lawyer, not John McClaine).

Why would he go back to speak to Gabriel when the last time he was there he felt threatened, armed guards were everywhere and that was even before he knew the guy was bad news?

The way it was all wrapped up in the last episode felt like it was rushed because they ran out of time and didn't close it properly.

I'm hoping they are not a one hit wonder and if there is a season 3 it goes back to him being a lawyer and sticks more to the courtroom.
