Save Me - a Sky production on Sky Atlantic is very good so far, 4 episodes in. Most of Sky's home grown productions have a tendency to be shit.

Anywhere to watch this online or kodi? I'm only finding the first episode.

The Looming Tower on Amazon very good so far. US counterterrorism activities and conflicts between FBI and CIA in the years building up to 9/11.
Just came on to post about this. Watched a few episodes of it last night and think its great so far.

The Rack Pack - on BBC iPlayer. Very funny comedy/drama about the rivalry between Steve Davis and Alex Higgins. Most of the other players from that era are imitated in it too.
Great soundtrack as well.

Gorged on Gomorrah S3, superb again. It's in my Top 3 of all time, quite possibly #1. They might struggle to maintain the high standards in S4 imo.

Just finished it there, what a show. Tension was something else in the last two episodes.

Altered Carbon on Netflix is excellent, original sci-fi with plenty of martial arts action - which wouldn't be my thing,  but the whole show works great as a package. Cyberpunk I see Wiki have labelled it's genre!

Started Manhunt Unabomber. Very good so far. Paul Bethany excellent in it.

Just watched the first 3 episodes of the young offenders. Excellent so far. Very funny and good characters.
Agree 100% brilliantly written and acted

I watched The Killing (Danish) following recommendations here.  I see there is a Season 2; is that also worth watching?

Yes, if you liked the first season.  Seasons 2 & 3 are 10-parters, so they are less leisurely paced than the first season, and probably more watchable.  Good stories too.

Not into fantasy shows or any of that shite but keep being recommended Game Of Thrones.

Any point if that isn't my thing?
