The 'Recommend me a TV series' thread

WandaVision on Disney,

very clever writing

 

[labrewski]

Surviving Escobar on Netflix
Very good if u have any interest in that type of series

Has anyone mentioned Lupin on Netflix? That was really good. I can't imagine Money Heist hasn't been recommended yet...but if not then take a look, it's excellent.

3 episodes into Lupin - really enjoying it!

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it but if you are into odd comedy, then Toast of London, on Netflix is very funny. More so after a few beers.

I've been watching Ricky Gervais' newest show After Life on Netflix. Almost finished series 1 and really enjoying it, much darker than his other stuff but well written and brilliantly acted.

Well I just watched the last episode of series 1. What on earth happened?? The first 5 episodes were really well written (mostly) but the last was actually pretty poor. The dialogue was clunky, even more of Ricky's awkward pontificating, and it seemed like they hadn't left enough time to properly conclude the series character arc and so it was a little rushed in wrapping up. Disappointing.

Never heard of it. Certainly going to check it out tonight, though.
I'll start lining up the beers now.

It might take an episode or two to get into. Matt Berry is the comedian behind it. If that name means anything to you?
Certainly worth a watch though.
Don’t forget that last season of Vikings If you haven’t already stormed your way through it?

Started watching Lupin last night 3 episodes in. Really excellent and clever. Acting top drawer.
Regarding Toast of London it's great up there with the Windsors.

Omar Sy's a great actor. Look out for him in "Intouchables" if you haven't seen it already.

We like Community on Netflix. Great show.

Someone mentioned Toast Of London earlier? Great show lol, I keep trying to say ‘television’ in his voice but I just can’t quite get it right

I know I've mentioned Bridgerton already but I've just watched quite a bit of the SNL Regé-Jean Page episode and he's just as smoulderingly intense in that as well... phew!

I've recently watched the mini fishing series Monster Carp...I've not fished for a year or so and miss it a bit...
Gavin and Stacey.. brilliant!
I think I might watch The Office as I've never watched it before last night and it's cringing good!

Deliver Us on All 4 from the Walter Presents thingy. Subbed Danish but a little different

Toast of London is amazing. I loved it.
I am currently watching Queen of the South on Netflix. It is very good. I’m just on the first Season, very gritty, great viewing. Watching that on my own. Also watching Hollywood on Netflix with my wife. Almost finished it, great story and based around 1948 Hollywood.
I recommend both.

I really enjoyed Lupin - very well done. The only thing I would say is that the last episode was left 'very open'. I'd guess this is obviously because there's more on the way, but it left me feeling a bit cheated. Still well worth watching.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

They are making Lupin series 2. First series was great.

 

[strange-steve]

I watched Wandavision and it started off great, they did something interesting and unusual but finished with another silly CGI fight in the sky. Really disappointing that they didn't have a more clever way to wrap it up. I know it's a few years old now but I also started Narcos recently and rather enjoying it so far.

We really liked Wandavision , it was the first time for years that with my two daughters we'd sit and watch a TV programme together and be excited about what was coming next! The ending was in some ways a bit muted with what it could have been but it's hard to see how it could have continued along the line of earlier episodes.
