    Just finished (assume finished) season 2 of “the lioness”.. Thoroughly enjoyed it although writer/producer writing himself into the show was unexpected
    Can’t say much without spoilers but enjoyable if you don’t take it to seriously

    @bayimports I just tried to start S1E1 this weekend but thought it was pretty shit. Girl with no training kicks ass, gets thrown into a huge situation straight off the bat and knows exactly what to do. Does it get remarkably better?

    From memory I think they did explain her experience fighting in later eps, but youre loosely following on. Basically how she becomes part of a CIA hit squad. (if you can get passed the believability piece then its ok)

    I also like "the day of the Jackal", but if anyone thinks it is remotely possible for Lashana Lynch to chase and get close to Eddie Redmayne in a race through a forest with her ass the size of a small tank, then believability is also not a criteria high on the list for a lot of action programs these days.

    Still a good watch though

    Haven't seen it but Redmayne is hardly the most manly man. 😉

    Oh dont get me wrong, if she caught him, he would be pummeled (and that would also be funny) but there is no way she should even get close in a foot race

    I think that happened a long time ago when action heroes all of a sudden could take a beating that would place people in a critical condition in intensive care . But they'd be able to overcome and simply walk it off.

    Secret Level

    Animated series on Prime video (think Love, Death + Robots) with some pretty kick arse stuff for the nerds, which I am.

    Anthology style and really top quality animation. Just binged the lot

    I am entertained

    @NTA You might have only watched half - it is a 16 episode series, with the second half dropping tomorrow

    @MiketheSnow

    Just started watching this and it’s really quite watchable. I’d like it to make up its mind though if it wants to play it for laughs or is a thriller as it seems to fall between the two.

    Edit: Christ I’ve just re-read this. I wasn’t even drunk when posting.. my excuse is that I’m recovering from a serious bout of man flu. But hey @MiketheSnow understood 😀

    So. Finished Black Doves and found it easily watchable but a little unsatisfying. Now watching The Pembrokeshire Murders, a dramatisation of a true crime investigation in South Wales looking at some interlinked cold cases. Luke Evans is the main guy and is, as you would expect, very good. I found it helps to do a little reading up on the story beforehand to give you a flavour, this doesn't (so far) give any spoilers as you pretty much know the outcome in advance but the story itself is quite absorbing. 2 Eps in so far and really enjoying it.

    The Diplomat
    S2 was enjoyable too, with enough drama and intrigue to keep me interested. I'm not sure I liked the ending though.
