How about Shogun, DLR?
We’re doing the Morning Show. Had been putting it off because we didn’t believe the hype. But it’s good. Not brilliant, but good.Any interest in the historic series, The Vikings, The Tudors, The Last Kingdom ... etc?
I’m a fan of Rashida Jones, so I have that on my list!Sunny on Apple+ has a premise so ridiculous you wouldn’t imagine it ever being anything other than awful, yet against all odds has been brilliant so far
Sunny review – this robot-fuelled comedy thriller sounds crap … and is actually excellent | Television | The Guardian
Rashida Jones’s show about a grief-stricken woman and a mechanoid is confident, quirky TV that doesn’t put a foot wrong – even if its synopsis is direamp.theguardian.com
That sounds good. I’ve liked a lot of Aussie stuff. Mr Inbetween, Colin from Accounts, Fisk. Will check it out.Has anyone flagged up Bay of Fires? Aussie crime/mystery/thriller/comedy that keeps surprising and delighting and creeping right to the end. ITVX, IIRC

Maybe I need to give the latter two shows another go. But I have found them massively underwhelming if not necessarily bad. Certainly not living up to the universes they are spinning off from. I don’t know if it’s the time span gap or something else, but when you compare it to, say Better Call Saul as a spinoff of Breaking Bad, it feels like a massive disservice to their mother series.Fallout S1 on amazon

Nope.Have you seen Rake?

I loved that.Mr Bigstuff with Danny Dyer was quite daft and enjoyable
Not seen it but i read the police federation kicked up a fuss about the titleAnother ITVX mention (sorry but I only do free TV ) is Piglets, a very silly comedy set among a trainee coppers. Nothing deep about it, just laughs and a few touching moments. But IMO worth the ~3hrs (6 x 27-odd mins per episode)
They kicked up a fuss about people protesting about the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill chanting “kill the bill”, so they’re known for being touchy.Not seen it but i read the police federation kicked up a fuss about the title
