What telly progs are you bingeing on?

Following on from the whole of Breaking Bad plus the film. I’ve just watched the whole of Batter Call Saul. Again I loved it but felt it slow in places. Need another big box set to start on now.

Been getting up to speed with Succession after not being into it. Finding the mix of a lot of filthy sleazebags to be quite entertaining so far.

Miriam Margolyes: A New Australian Adventure  - just a 3 parter. Goes to lots of places, meets and speaks to plenty of interesting people and isn't shy about challenging them when appropriate (as usual), also still challenges herself sometimes, which is admirable for a woman of her age. 

 

Fantasmas - only done one episode thus far, an extraordinary little show. 

 

Bad Monkey - currently about half way through, gets about 3/5 from most critics,which is fair. If you enjoy Vince Vaughn doing his thing you'll enjoy it, great to see Rob Delaney in it too. 

 

Sunny - enjoyed it, last episode today I think. 

 

Freddie Flintoff’s Field of Dreams - 4 part follow up to his early show, read rave reviews about it and lived up to billing - genuinely emotional and touching relationship between him and the group rallying together after his accident. 

 

Abbott Elementary - quite far on S3 and it's great as ever. 

 

Kaos - boshed through all 8 episodes in less than a week.  It's Zeus and the other gods living in modern day, so if you know it you'll recognise names and other aspects at points, but you don't need to.  It's funny, action packed, moving, got a fab soundtrack, looks incredible and has a great cast including lots of Brits and Irish using mostly their own accents. 

 

I even did homework, but don't look if you haven't seen it...

Agreed, some lovely life moments mixed with some blunt laugh out loud comedy, hope they make a 3rd series.

English Teacher is well worth watching on Disney Plus.

Finally got round to starting The Acolyte, I know it's been cancelled and everything but I'm watching it anyway because Star Wars. Really enjoyed the first 3 episodes. It's not Andor but it has a good feel to it.
