Finally got to watch Nosferatu... I was able to watch the original several months ago and was amazed at how well it was done for being over 100 years old. The new one is also quite good and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Happened across one called Preacher last night. It takes awhile to wind itself up with all kinds of odd things going on across the world. The Irish vampire is my favorite character so far. After 2 episodes, I'm hooked!

Just started watching a very promising crime show on Netflix, Untamed, all the better for being set in spectacular Yosemite
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/untamed blackkitty

... and flotsam The Wire is very well worth a look.

flotsam,

If you enjoyed Luther you will like The Wire. In fact I think you would enjoy The Wire no matter what. The story and acting are top notch.


It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

We are watching an old Bill Murray film from 1981 - Stripes - very silly but good fun - prompted by seeing this youtube clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKrdnPjKHcc lol

I remember enjoying that movie quite a bit back then Lex. Good to know it still stands up.
Just finished a very enjoyable 6 episode series called the Assassin with Keeley Hawes (which was my initial drawcard). Its stylishly preposterous fun, certainly not to be taken seriously, with entertainment being its raison d'etre. A good romp all round thumbsup

I just finished Katla on Netflix, an Icelandic series. It's dark and billed as horror, but in the end quite a moving story. Worth watching.


I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

We like Keeley Hawes so will try the Assassin: my present diet is season 3 of Foundation And an old six episode ITV thriller newly arrived on Netflix, Loch Ness (previously called The Loch) which is quite good. We also like scandinoir, so will give Katia a try.

Thanks for the tips. catrub

Jut finished gobbling up seasons 1 and 2 of Foundation. It's fantastic! I'll wait until all season 3 episodes are available before I watch it.

I'm starting For All Mankind today.

Apple TV really does have some great shows..

We just finished The Madame Blanc Mysteries and found the crime comedy drama series fun to watch. Hope they continue with season 5 but there is no definite word yet...just speculation.

Just started watching "The Lazarus Project" ... a British sci-fi TV series that follows a man who wakes up to find that time has inexplicably rewound six months and is recruited by a secret organization called the Lazarus Project who's mission is to prevent global catastrophes.

I liked The Lazarus project a lot soot. Very clever I thought. Here’s hoping for another season.

Chief of War on Apple TV has been good.

I've started watching on MTV The Challenge Vets and New Threats. Pretty cutthroat but I love it.

I've always wanted to watch Elementary. I'll put it on my list.

Also, Fallout Season 2 is set in New Vegas and features Mr. House, for those of you who've played the games. Looking forward to it.

I also wanted to add that For All Mankind is fantastic. I highly recommend it. I've been staying up late every night this week just to watch one more episode.
