i binged Tidelands. some article said its like ozark mixed with true blood. its a netflix australia original i believe.

its about Sirens, everyone is really pretty, and there are quite a few boobs. overall worthwhile if you are looking for a fantasy show fix (8 episodes).

eta- forgot to add one of the main stars is chris hemsworth's wife. not entirely sure why they cast a spanish person in australia but whatever, she's really hot.

And having never watched anything from this era (except Chaplin I guess), it's also a fun look back at clothing, special effects, sets, etc from the era.

I'm envious of you seeing them for the first time. The original Twilight Zones had intriguing premises, great acting, a condensed plot, of course, a meaningful twist at the end. Nowadays on a TV series or even a movie, you get the first two if you are lucky. Rarely now is there is ever a memorable twist ending. Often the current endings have characters just die for no particular interesting reason. Have fun.

I liked S3 but I thought it wasn't as good as S1 or S2. I still watched S3 in one day. A lot I think was forgettable, maybe that's because I binged it so fast.

I thought the most recent episode was the best yet.

Season 1 was great and I'm expecting season 2 to at least be good. Regardless, I'm in for the duration!

If this was ABC, instead of a movie, they would have laughed and pointed at the viewers while saying "suckers"

Okay so, finished "Godless". Liked it. Not the greatest show i've watched lately but still pretty solid. 7/10. Soon I'll be catching up on The Americans, picking it up where I stopped (liked it but didn't have enough time) at the beginning of season 2.

Before that: Homecoming or Succession ?

I have had Killing Eve on the DVR for a couple months and keep seeing everyone rave about it. I am 3 episodes in and I am hooked, its really good. I like this Jodie Comer chic in this role, I never heard of her before.

Watched the pilot last night, not sure what to make of this show. Seemed not too far from being a comedy but not quite, didn't really feel like a "drama" either, it's not really dark. Will watch a couple episodes more but not sold yet !

Trust the process. The first (so far only) season is amazing overall.

Finished Homecoming. Wouldn't recommend it. It's not terrible and enough to keep you engaged through the 10-12 eps, but it's not very good.
