What are you watching?

Were those the shows where everyone got Covid? I just remember some very scathing articles at the time.

No, DVD is from 2011

2000 Meters to Andriivka. Fucking hell. Bleak but important.

Just finished ‘Waiting For The Out’. Loved it. Definitely some Mike Leigh styling in there.

Josh Finan was superb as Dan.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Same. Watched after recommendation on here and loved it. Josh Finan is a legend in the making.

I’m watching Shrinking at the moment. I like the blend of wholesome and drama/dark comedy - reminds me of Ted Lasso in the way they address mental health topics.

Hollywood surely beckons for this lad.

Ditto on that. Found that show very moving and better than any drama I’ve seen on the BBC in a good while. Thanks

Drops of God on Apple.
How did I miss the first series which came out in 2023? So so good.
So much better than Hijack Series 2 on every level which I’ve already given up on.

He’s very good in Say Nothing as a young Gerry Adams.

He was excellent and has been consistently good in everything he is in. Started googling if there was a season 2 in the pipeline and Dennis Kelly has apparently floated the possibility. :crossed_fingers:

Really pleasantly surprised by Wonder Man on Disney. It’s a Marvel but you’d barely know it. Ben Kingsley steals every scene, as he should. Low-stakes, charming stuff.

This was very good. A look at the life’s work of Seymour Hersh, a US journalist who exposed some of America’s shocking cover ups such as My Lai, Watergate and Abu Ghraib. Very murky stuff

Started watching The Wire as I’d somehow never seen it before. 4 episodes in and I’m feeling hooked

Tinker Tailor is so good. Love the gloomy 1970s atmosphere. Need to rewatch.

Not seen Smiley’s People yet.
