What Ewe Watching

[ThurrockJack]

We randomly chose US crime drama 'Person of Interest' a week ago and have rapidly become hooked on it. It's superficial but entertaining and reasonably well acted, We were shocked to discover it actually ran between 2011 and 2016, it has the feel of a much more recent series.

I wish we could watch repeats of the superb French crime drama 'Spiral' which was great first time around, but it doesn't seem to be on offer anywhere.

Haven't watched it since it aired but remember finding it great fun. Time for a rewatch maybe, especially given all this AI lark going on.

Really disappointed with the Yellowstone spin off, US Marshalls.

What a steaming pile of shite.

So were 1883 and 1923.
Landman was great though.

I didn't mimd 1883 and 1923

Landman was excellent, thought Billy Bob Thornton carried the show.

The casting for US Marshalls seems to be off and there doesn't really seem to have that much of a storyline.

Have you seen Mayor Of Kingstown?

I haven’t. Any good?

My synopsis of 1883..

Some people moved across the US. Some people died and they left a piano in the middle of nowhere.

Your synopsis is pretty accurate

I highly recommend giving Mayor of Kingstown a watch.

Just binge watched Chernobyl. Have seen it before but in fits and starts, so needed to watch it again to fully piece it together. Some stellar acting performances from the cast.

Ah bollocks, it’s a repeat is it? I recorded it to watch but thought it was a new production.

I’m not aware if there is a spin-off or a second series, if there is then I’ll be all over it. What I have just watched is the original from 2019.

Seconded regarding Mayor of Kingstown, a bit far fetched at times with what he gets away with but entertaining & enjoyable none the less.

Very OTT, it's compelling watching though

Oh Nice, a new season of From is back, looks like it finishes around the end of June.

In the meantime, for some reason I fancy rewatching Rise of The Footsoldier films.

Seen some good writeups about Matthew Rhys' new series on Apple, Widow's Bay, although I haven't started watching it myself yet. One review said it was a cross between Mare of Easttown and Schitt's Creek, which is not a comparison I thought I'd ever see.
