I thought the latest episode was the finale but given the way it went I assumed there was one more, until I read this post. 

Shockingly poor.

I was expecting a twist, but it wasn't the twist I expected.
We'll worth a watch.

Had you seen the Harrison Ford film from the 90s?

I did, but to be honest it's so long ago I can't really remember it very well.

I remembered the twist from the film.

Not saying whether or not they used it in this series.

The whole second series was moving chess pieces around really wasnt it. Still, some good moments in it and I did enjoy episode 7 in particular. I looks to be set up for big things early in the next series, but we will have quite the wait to see that.

Look-Up!

Haven't seen S2 yet but that's how I'd have described S1. Sounds like the writers taking the piss a bit.

No spoilers please, going to buy it on Prime when the Olympics are finished.

House of the Dragon season 1 was far better than 2.

The Umbrella Academy final series - what a load of crap.
Really disappointing as I enjoyed previous series.

WeCrashed on Apple TV. Not sure if I liked this or not. At times I thought it was great and interesting. Other times I wished the pace would increase. I've never heard of this company before, "WeWork", but maybe I live in a bubble. Leto puts in a good performance for me.

Finished Presumed Innocence last night. Great show. Wee bit disappointed with the ending as hoping for a better twist, but great watch.

Watched Kaos on Netflix, really enjoyed it. It's nonsense but enjoyable - best way to describe it - Ancient Greek Gods, stories and myths getting butchered with a modern day  Bridgerton type treatment. At least they set it in Crete

Watched the three seasons of The Bear recently:
Season 1: 7/10 - good
Season 2: 10/10 - one of the best seasons of a series I have ever seen
Season 3: 7/10 - two of the main characters just became boring. Still some great characters, and looking forward to the next season.

I'm towards the end of season 2 of Bosch Legacy. The original Bosch series was decent, but this is a big step up.

The Bear is intense! But I'm loving it
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Loved The Bear, sorted it over a fortnight during Summer. What two characters do you mean? Main guy and?
We binged so one series fell into a other but yes series 2 the best from memory. Fantastic tunes too. Cant wait to rewatch tbh

Yes Chef!

Cant disagree with that. A quality series and looking forward to more.
