Season 3 of Ted Lasso is back.
I love it, but I dont know why. I think it should be rubbish. But it's just feel good.

Who remembers 1970's tv series Citizen Smith, with the lead character played by Robery Lindsay?

Fun fact: When Wolfe Tone went to America, he took the pseudonym Citizen Smith. And what was the name of the character played by Lindsay? Wolfie!

The creater of Citizen Smith was born in London to Irish parents.

Just watched the first episode of Blue Lights. First impressions are that it is very good with some excellent casting. The action scenes appear authentic.
Unfortunately it slightly drifts into a problems solved by a former social worker plot.
Nevertheless it has the potential to address the problems the cops face every day working in predominately nationalist/sceptical areas.
From a purely visual standpoint, the main character has a lot in common with the lead in Happy Valley.
Never underestimate the power of complaining

They could have called it 'Coach Ted'.

Now Richmond have signed Zlatan (wtf) - a stroke of comic genius, though they could've gotten  a lot of milage out of a Cantonesque character.
But the Zlatan aura  is more current.

Finally getting round to watching Suits, near the end of S3, its watchable but overall pretty shite, but I keep getting drawn back to watch more. Its hardly going to improve much if this is my reading so far and 6 more series to go??

Probably not. I enjoyed it at the start but gave up on it after a certain significant change. Couldnt see the point of it after that
I saw Suits through to end, it never got any better but not considerably worse, it was shite but watchable shite that didn't require much brain power. The Donna character annoyed the f**k out of me throughout.

The Big Door Prize on Apple (or dodgy box). 3 episodes dropped on 29th March and then weekly from this Wednesday. Really liked it.
