is there some kind of trick to getting season 2 of Das Boot - paid my 5.99 amazon prime and loved season one, but then no sign anywhere of season 2 to continue my viewing pleasure, unless I am missing something but i have searched and searched

Just started Dark on Netflix.

Is it worth sticking with as bit confusing to start off with?

If you can watch sci fi, stick with it, stays good throughout the whole run.

Watched the plot against America on Sky Atlantic, was good but the Nazi plotlines are coming thick and fast with this, High Castle, Penny Dreadful LA and I happened to watch Band of Brothers and numerous Nazi documentaries during lockdown, so I'm suffering a bit of Nazi fatigue.

Band of Brothers is probably the greatest show of all time. I never get tired watching it.
Love it myself. Watch it every time I catch it on a channel.

If you've not seen The Pacific you will love it just as much. Both brilliant. The books are even better.

Am enjoying the new Sky adaptation of the 'Perry Mason' yarns - seems to have drawn influences heavily from the recent German 'Babylon Berlin' adaptations.  Recommended ... if you like that sort of thing.

Perry Mason is on CBS action these days.

Little Fires Everywhere. Not for me.  The wife thinks it's great.

Just finished the first series of The Sinner. Found it very good, some small plot holes but overall very enjoyable.

Half way through  I May Destroy you on BBC iplayer. Great show, hard to describe & pigeon hole, very intense & compulsive viewing at times. It deals with the contradictions of many Woke issues, hard to know at times is this being serious or satirical.

There's satire in there but it's definitely being serious... I'm similar it's very good and well done I think plenty of food for thought in it!!

Season 1 and Season 2 are good, but Season three is the biggest bowl of pish I have sat through.

Only watched The Sinner 3 weeks ago.  I had heard the reports about the third season but battered on anyway.  Season 1 and 2 were pretty good though.

I liked Season 3.

Didn't like 2 (don't think finished it) and finished 3 but found the premise hard to deal with. Also, Mrs. Baloney kept going on about how he'd never be allowed to keep teaching, so that didn't help my enjoyment of it!

Mrs Cool was the same. Sure he'd not be allowed to follow him to NYC, blah blah blah.
