Main Street

I´m on Fargo s5. The first 3 episodes were not too dissimilar in quality from s4 but then it took off very nicely in true Fargo fashion from e4 onward. The leading protagonist the petite blonde from Ted Lasso, she irritated me greatly at first but in good time she managed to reveal her inner Fargo qualities.

Watched the first 10 minutes and turned it off as thon blade is unwatchable, will have to try again.

J70

They just did the 8th episode of season 5 over here. Setting up nicely for the finale.

Return to form IMO. I didn't like season 4. Juno Temple is really good in her role. Jon Hamm is riveting as an evil, sovereign citizen sheriff and abuser though.

An Watcher

Watched the first three episodes of the Traitors there and have to say it was excellent.  Girl on it from here too.  Looking forward to episode 4

Watched Vigil, found it to be OK but hard to like the Scottish doll and Karen McDonald, the whole lesbian push was unnecessary and irritating. Seemed more like an ITV production than a BBC one.

Do have to laugh at the headlines going with this series 'Biggest miscarriage of justice in British History'

Suppose it is a matter of perspective on that one  ;)

Biggest in this case does not mean worse, but most extensive.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Just finished Hijack about 6 months after everyone else.

Absolute garbage from beginning to end. Looked stylish because of Apple chucking money at Idris Elba but that's about it. Ludicrous plot that made no sense full of gaping holes, terribly written and, Elba apart, acted abominably.

Prisoner cell Block H is showing again on  Thats TV, for anyone who's  interested

Great show back  in the day

Queen Bea, Aul Lizzie  and the rest

Fool me once on Netflix is decent, plus it has Michelle Keegan so that's a bonus.
Tomorrow is promised to no one.

Heard Fool me Once is good

Watching Tourist atm it's so bad it's laughable but still watchable in a weird way

Decent enough show, passed a couple of evenings for us if nothing else.

Michelle Keegan makes it a bit better.

The Tourist turned out decent enough, just some stupid parts that were completely unnecessary, i.e. the basement stuff with the wee leprechaun - no need for it at all and made a bit of a joke of the thing. Really need to start using only northern actors for northern roles too. The ma's accent was terrible, far worse than Lisa Dwans in Bloodlands.
