So american horror story = good, american horror stories = don't bother?
Where are these streaming?

American Horror Story (for us) is streaming on Disney plus (at least, in Japan) as is the spin-off. Which haven't seen yet. Have seen the first 8 seasons, of the parent show, season 4 was my least favourite although Jessie Lange is magnificent as always.

Just be warned, these are a different kettle of fish compared to Them or the Mike Flanagan shows.

Of that lot I think I have have only seen doctor sleep.
I think Midnight Mass was once in my 'to view' list though.

I thought Midnight Mass was brilliant myself. Comparisons with Haunting at Hill
House found online often are skewed, as they are quite different in tone and even subject.

Seen Doctor Sleep and The Haunting of Hill House, the latter of which was enjoyable if nothing groundbreaking.

I don't know if it left netflix before I got a chance to see it or I took it off my list. Sounds like something decent enough to watch while washing up.

Anybody watched the Australian version of The Office yet?

Just finished 'Leonard Cohen - I'm Your Man'. Crivens, not too everyone's taste obviously but what a songwriter/poet and a totally astonishing performance by Anthony, of whom I'd heard but had never heard perform. There's a Rufus chap who can warble as well !

Having just caught up with season 3 of The Legend of Vox Machina it started slow but the most recent episodes are genuinely very good - they've really done well pulling together the odd threads of a D&D campaign into a TV narrative.
