Stumbled across Only Murders in the Building at the weekend. Enjoyed it.

A comedy murder, mystery with Steve Martin.

Funnily enough, I stumbled across it a few weeks ago too. Highly recommend it.

Season 3 is currently on, at least in the states.

Meryl Streep and Paul Rudd added to the cast.

Steve Martin and Martin Short are a brilliant comic double act, although Steve Martin is more of a straight man in this show.

Brilliant show - I now look forward to the new season each summer!

When I started watching I assumed season one was current. Was surprised that S3 has dropped.

It's one I have heard no one talking about.

It's been huge in the states the past few years.

Nearly slipped past without noticing but I spotted a hugely famous GAAboarder on last week"s Mahon's Way. (It nearly slipped past because I put on Mahons Way to relax & promptly fall asleep everytime, so I only noticed the boul Orior at the 3rd attempt to watch the full episode).

Woo-hoo!

Brilliant show. The writing, acting and locations are all top-class.
Although I do understand a lot of the "patois" and slang the subtitles are a must.
Questions that shouldn't be asked shouldn't be answered

Watched the series with Nolan in Maghaberry on the iplayer thought it was an interesting watch.

Watched S1 of Top Boy after giving up on it b4, stuck with itthis time & thoroughly enjoyed it. I couldn't watch it without subtitles. 2 seasons to go.

When you strip them all down, they're generic nonsense, same story churned out in different cultures.

Aye watched them all. If you took out all the prisoners with mental health and/or substance abuse issues, the place would be pretty empty.

I have watched (and enjoyed) Hijack.  Is there anything else worth watching on the platform?

If you like Sci Fi, Foundation is excellent (s2 just over). Also sci fi, The Silo, started strong, ended ok.

Morning show for a TV show related drama is pretty good.
