Squid Game - derivative, boring, gore porn. Like one of the particularly bad Saw movies (Saw 4 or 5, maybe) stretched out for 8 hours. Watched the last three episodes at X1.5 speed just for the sake of completionism. Increasingly, these Netflix fads are to be avoided.
Doc would listen to any kind of nonsense and change it for you to a kind of wisdom.

An Watcher

Watched Colin Kapaernicks new show on Netflix.  Colin in Black & White.  Enjoyed it, very good.  Done very differently which you'll understand if you watch it.

Narcos Mexico Season 3 is next on my list to watch

Season 4 of Yellowstone got of to some start.

Dexter is back. One episode in it seems dead on.

Hadn't heard it was back.

Excellent. Presume its getting into El Chapo territory at this point with Felix Gallardo put away?

Thought the 1st episode back was brilliant

Narcos was very good, probably not as good as the last two seasons though.

Was meant to watch Dexter the past few nights but other things got in the way, hoping I get a rattle at it tonight.

Yea it was good alright.  The original showrunner is back, so the quality should be good the whole way through you would think.
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

Yeah I enjoyed it too. Some great series of dexter though it dropped off a bit at the end. Hoping it goes back to the standard of the earlier series.

Where is this showing? AMC?

It's on sky Atlantic. Not sure of the us channel.

Louther

Succession is ripping it up this season. Loved this weeks fix. Even when it seems nothing is happening there is so much tension and agendas at play that there is actually loads going down. Great TV.

The silences between Kendall and Logan was brilliant TV.

Greg and Tom providing the light entertainment it would seem but you get impression they building up to be big players in this "I've got cancer of the career".  ;D ;D

I'm up to date with season 3 but decided the other night to start from scratch along with my wife as she hadn't watched it. It's just phenomenal stuff. The awkwardness... the fact that there is not 1 character you could remotely like but it somehow works.

The things they say at times are what you wish you could say in real life the writing and acting are first class. and

I thought episode 2 of the 3rd season last week was the best one yet.

Watching the trailer it seems a lot like the 2000 Japanese movie Battle Royale
