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.

BoB started off good but it dragged on after a few episodes

Love it myself. Watch it every time I catch it on a channel.

I'm watching Washington's Spies on Amazon. I had seen a few episodes of it back a couple of years ago in the US and wanted to see it through. It has the advantage that you know the ending (after 40 episodes) and the British f**k off.

I watched Future Man on Amazon, which is tongue in cheek Science Fiction, a sort of whacky Back to the Future. Not everyone's taste , but entertaining to me.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

If you had a few crumbs of cred left, you just lost it all.

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?

Ethan Tremblay

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

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.
