Don't think there's any debate about The Bear being number 1.

I enjoyed I'm A Virgo, I think anything Boots Riley does is interesting.
Last of Us, Poker Face and Reservation Dogs all good too.

Mainly been rewatching classic The Simpsons with the kids to be honest though.

Shoresy... full stop.

There is loads I haven't seen, but mine would be

Happy Valley, Ghosts, Hijack (Idris Elba), The Sixth Commandment (Timothy Spall was great), Blue Lights, and Poker Face, I mainly watch cop shows, I couldn't watch the Bear it was too stressful - maybe too real if you know what I mean.

On the calendar, although I believe the spin-off to be a superior show...

Shit, I could have had another three from that list.

I haven’t seen The Old Man, but your taste seems quite aligned with mine, so definitely one for me to watch

Pistolero · « **Reply #9 on:** December 23, 2023, 09:51:52 pm »

Succession....out on its own.....then two others from The Last Of Us, Jury Duty, Platonic and Guilt

Happy Valley
Guilt'
Succession
Blue Lights
Culprits

Blue Eye Samurai (animated, Netflix)

Great great great, until that last episode which just went against most characters' motivations. Now it is among the best but not the best IMO.

Scavenger's Reign for the top spot. (Read a description somewhere describing it accurately - 'Studio Ghibli meets Annihilation')

After that in no particular order:
The Bear.
Beef.
What We Do in the Shadows.
Silo.
The Last of Us.

Have wanted to watch Party Down Season 3, which I am sure would have been in this list.

filopastry · « **Reply #13 on:** December 24, 2023, 12:21:03 pm »

Succession
The Bear
Something else from a pretty long list of good but not outstanding stuff

A-Bomb · « **Reply #14 on:** December 24, 2023, 03:16:14 pm »

Succession
The Last of us
Happy Valley
Star Trek: Picard
Ted Lasso

Post-Chrimbo binge. Kind of sad, it was, saying goodbye.

Appears that Keeso has switched focus to adding drama to his work, the Darry as Degen thing indicative of such, I would argue.

Is Michelle Mylett perfection? Seems entirely possible...

Buck Pete · « **Reply #16 on:** December 29, 2023, 10:51:05 pm »

Kin S2 for me.

Bren you absolute monster

AndyMuller · « **Reply #17 on:** December 29, 2023, 10:53:45 pm »

TLoU.

That episode with the fella out of Parks & Rec in was absolutely outstanding.

This, definitely is up there.

Foundation season 2 was ridiculous high level sci-fi. Lee Pace needs awards for that season.

The Bear.

Silo, so good I audiobooked the trilogy of books in quick time.

Succession, final season ended perfectly with a massive shock half way through that just blew my mind.

As far as I'm aware, no. It was released onto Disney Plus (South Korea).

It's here, with English subtitles.

Lessons in Chemistry the Brie Larson show is great as far as I'm concerned. I only clicked on it as a punt as the synopsis didnt really grab me that much. I'm glad I watched it.
