Been watching The Old Man on Disney +, really enjoying it - getting round to it late as I do believe someone on here gave it a bum reviewing put me off starting it. 

Also been watching Bear, it's OK, I wouldn't give it the rave reviews it's been getting everywhere tbh. The anxiety levels certainly increased watching S1.

Just watched first two episodes of BBC's Wolf. It's a bit mental. I think I'll stick with it though
That was never a square ball!!

Lioness on Paramount is very good so far.

I thought The Old Man was a great show. Jeff Bridges was class. There is a season 2 in the pipeline so be interesting to see what way they go with that. Prob should have left it at one season.

Anyone watched Succession? On season 2 and finding it a real drag. Awkward, cringy stuff with horrible characters. Not sure I've the will to finish it!

The horrible characters are the best bit.

That's what I thought too  ;D

Hateful shíts you'd like the Da, who's also a hateful shít piss off all the time.

Anyone watching the documentaries about Rupert Murdoch on RTÉ in recent weeks would see where the inspiration came from.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Entourage 19 years old today...it was an enjoyable watch!

What a show, Jonny Drama has to be one of the best characters ever in a TV series, class comedy value. id also love to see a writer try put a character like Ari Gold in a show now just to see twitter explode, he was class. What a show

There isn't a hope in hell it would be allowed to be made now.

Great show.

I've started watching Hijack on Apple tv.
Idris Elba starring, very good so far.

I don't get that really. . . surely these characters still exist around the place so why can't we portray them on TV?

Finally got around to watching the final season of Line of Duty...ending was rather underwhelming. Love the show bit all the 'mate' and 'boss' shit was ridiculous

Shamrock Shore

check out The Righteous Gemstones if you can.

John Goodman as a 'Come to Jesus' preacher in the Bible Belt and his dysfunctional adult children muscling in on the action.

It's very funny in parts. Don't watch with your grandmother. Lots of effing and blinding.

Have just seen that Season 3 is available. Loved the first two. Goodman is absolutely terrific in it.
