I absolutely loved Velvet. I have watched it all the way through twice. It is available on PBS which I have through Amazon Prime.

I am slow. Just finished Season 4 of Slow Horses. Itās my kind of show, a thriller with a sense of humor.
Love any scenes between Lamb and the Second Desk. Oldman and Thomas are excellent actor and actress.
No wonder River was in such a good shape. Was there any episode that he did not run?
Canāt wait for Season 5 and happy to hear that there will be Season 6, too.

We really liked ā No Good Deedā so last night we watched the first 2 episodes of āDead to Meā. Iām on the fence. It was fine but I didnāt get into it as much. Iāll give it a few more episodes.

Over the past couple of weeks I watched Season 1 and caught up to current in Season 2 of Severance. Iād considered it several times but wasnāt sure if it was for me. My son watched and told me he thought Iād like it and he was right. Has a Lost vibe.

I watched the first couple seasons of Dead To Me but bowed out in the last season. The Good Deed did a much better job of adding in that crooked humor.
Donāt know if anyone here has watch Selling Sunset (one of my guilty pleasure shows at first and now just have to watch the train wreckā¦) but Linda Cardinelli looks SO much like Chrishell! I could not get it out of my head.

I canāt see that anyone has mentioned this yet. Itās a new 8-episode show on Prime (or possibly Freevee?) that Iām really enjoying. Norman Lear was involved - possibly his last project?
Laverne Cox and George Wallace star. Iām finding all the characters extremely likable, even the kid!
This is the description from IMDb:
Harry, an Alabama car wash owner is surprised when his estranged child returns home after 17 years, now a determined, proud trans woman named Desiree.

Season 2 of The Recruit was pretty ridiculous, but we did watch the entire season.

We loved Estoy Vivo. The family relationships were really heartwarming. The last season was a bit disappointing, I liked it better when things were a little weird as opposed to a lot weird.
Paradaiso is another Spanish show we watched last year, itās a little bit like Stranger Things at least in the sense of having teens and the supernatural.

Finally got around to watching the Dexter origin show. The actor playing young Dexter does an amazing job (Irish actor Paddy Gibson). He nails the voice and mannerisms without being a ācopycatā. The production and writing isnāt as outstanding as the acting, but itās forgiveable IMO. For those of us growing up in the 80s-90s it is fun to see Christian Slater and Sarah Michelle Geller.
Well, shoot on The Recruit. Weāre trying to find a series we both want to watch. Weāre on episode 4 of the recruit and like it well enough to continue. Maybe we should finish our the season and stop.
We tried Night Agent and only made it 3 episodes. The writing is terrible and I thought the acting not far behind.

For fans of the UK series Unforgotten, be on the lookout for season 6, which premiered this week across the pond. While I miss Nicola Walkerās DCI Cassie Stuart, this season was quite good

Iām assuming it will air on PBS and be available via Passport, but havenāt looked hard to validate
I had to look back to see who recommended In My Skin because I just finished season 1 andā¦ wow!! Itās so sad, and frustrating, but also hopeful. Great characters and great acting.

Am starting Episode 1. Missed Cassie but liked Jess in S5. Will see how this turns out - a spine in a marsh sounds more ghoulish than usual.
Just finished Silent Witness - are they all moving?
Also started Episode1 in Boarders (S2). Things are being set up nicely - American exchange student, secret society getting in the way of semi secret relationship, new Head of School, etc.
Do you know when Resident Alien S4 is returning?
Itās really not; all will become clear.
Sounds like it
Nothing official. My guess is 2026.
