Awful. Poorly written, badly acted.

 

I've never watched any of it, but I just know. 

A quick glance is more than enough to know crap when you see it

What was that other awful series about a cruise ship where the unbelievably bad Jane McDonald made her name?

Been rewatching Scrubs to get ready for the new season.

I know I'm not the target audience but still staggered that anyone with any basic intelligence would want to watch bilge like Bridgerton 

They probably watch Mrs Browns Boys too.

I loved Scrubs, I just hope it’s going to be better than the recent Frasier re-boot! 

[Libertine]

Just watched the first two episodes of new Scrubs. Actually thought it was really good! Relieved. Looking forward to the rest of it.

A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms is superb and a really refreshing bit of television. 

Just wished the episodes were a bit longer. Excellent watch though

[Jonezy]

Just here to be another voice praising Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. That season went way too fast.

[FoxesDeb]

Started Landman last night, only a couple of episodes in but really enjoying it so far. 

 

Oh and I love Bridgerton and won't hear a word against it. My husband however feels the same as the rest of you on here I think, but then it's not really aimed at men 

[Rubbersoul]

A knight of the seven kingdoms was very good. Was a nice little self contained story and not too serious. Acting was superb too. 
 

I need 20 episodes a season of the 2 of them just doing stuff. Think HBO have got a real gem here.

Having only 6 episodes of around 30 mins was quite a strange one. 

 

We'll probably have to wait 2 years for the next season too.

It’s a short book and season 2 is scheduled for next year it seems

Dirty Business on C4 is worth a watch, another national scandal, still ongoing.

Just watched the first episode. The 8-year old dying in such an awful way 

 

I'm shocked. And I'm bloody angry. 

[Stuntman_Mike]

Looking forward to this starting 19th March.

Yeah you’ll be just as angry if you watch the 2nd episode which shows

the environment agency in bed with the water companies.

[Dr Marco]

Loved first couple of new Scrubs episodes

[The Blur]

Late to the party for The Bear but...

 

That Fishes episode....WOW.  Easily best ever TV episode ever.  Superb writing and narrative in building the backstory for main characters and making their behaviour, motivation and persona feel so natural and believable.   I felt equally traumatised as them watching that mother!

[foxfanazer]

Just finished The Sopranos for about the 5th time. As close to TV perfection as humanly possible

Started Marshals, follow on from Yellowstone. Only first episode in so far.

This is on our list to see as well 🙁

 

@Tommy Fresh my resident tv guide, have you seen this?

Never watched it mate, Southland is on Netflix now though if you didn't watch it back when it was initially on

[spacemunky]

I might be in the minority, but I haven't liked this season of 'The Pitt' nearly as much as the first. 

 

I watched the first episode of a new show called 'DTF St Louis'. Terrible name, but a terrific opener. It stars Jason Bateman, Linda Cardellini and Hopper from 'Stranger Things'.

[Tommy Fresh]

Season 2 of Bloodhounds out in April 

[The Bear]

Just watched all of Small Prophets. Another quietly enjoyable jaunt from McKenzie Crook with amusing and quirky characters and subtle humour. The kind of everyday stuff we can all relate to and chuckle at. 

 

Not as good as Detectorists but still a good watch.

Got it recorded will start to watch on your recommendation then 👍.
I do enjoy these type of series, with as you say, quirky characters and subtle humour not trying to force a laugh every 30 seconds much like the Detectorists, the Cockfields & Such Brave Girls to name a few.
