Finding season 2 a bit of a slog if I'm honest, currently three episodes in. Found season 1 a lot more entertaining personally.
I’d say so. Parts reminded me of Lynch if that’s your thing. Some wild scenes
Netflix are the worst for this I think. Dunno what they expected.
Started Reacher tonight, loving it, just had to peel myself off the sofa after 3 eps. Guy just chins everyone.
Ok then we’ve finished season 1 and I’m happy, although I need to rewatch the last 2 episodes
I like the development of the man who fell from the stars. The deception of Sauron is well done. I had some idea because I went searching for characters new to me and that spoiled some, but I thought that was well done overall. I have some questions on the elves, but am generally happy.

The unaired pilot of Blackadder. You can see why it was rewritten, but it was funny in parts, and I much prefer the nasty Blackadder. Also some glaring cast differences are apparent - worth a watch.

in the Autumn went through all 80 eps of the classic Star Trek series. Something i've wanted to get round to for decades.
Went better than expected...it's the strongest Star Trek series for me: full of timeless sci-fi philosophising, and crucially without giving clear answers, or overwrought emoting. Once you get over the datedness of the production there's a lot to like. I also appreciated that every episode was its own thing: no need to watch in order or marathoning.
Top 5 eps for the curious, these are highly-recommended for any sci-fi fans:

BBC 4 doing re runs tonight, of one of the most underated comedies of all time - Early Doors ( 11pm )
Not for me, no so far at least. Good but not got the same magic
Five Episodes in, Black Bird. Really gripping, based on a true story.
Enjoying it.

Watched season 3 of Jack Ryan. Not bad but not great. Next season is the last so thankfully they aren’t dragging it out

No way! I have just got to the reveal. Could have made for an interesting second season. Booooo!
