Thanks for this, I read somewhere that it was cancelled, glad it isn't.

I'm going to try it, but its going to be tough. I like Sterling Brown but I cant stand Cyclops.

WTF is with Sterling K. Brown? Between 'Paradise' and 'This is Us' its like he luxuriates in shows that are like:

"Oh you were having a good day were you? I can fix that!"

I'm watching Paradise and the Double-Standard is interesting.

A woman wears a shirt that shows off her belly and everyone is cool, but if I do it then it looks like I murdered a vagrant in my garage.

I watched the Netflix series Adolescence over the weekend and enjoyed it. Only 4 episodes but incredibly unique where the entire episodes are filmed in a continuous uninterrupted shot. There really isn't a lot of mystery here, but if you approach the series as more of a character analysis, I think it's worth the time.

I did enjoy the first two episodes a lot more than the last two, but still good overall. I think those with children will probably appreciate it even more.

I've forgotten most everything about it other than there's boxing. They sold the "Peaky Blinders guy made it!" angle too hard. The main actress is no Tommy Shelby that's for sure and the dialogue didn't do the cast any favours.

Maybe some of the cast are familiar to British TV fans? I'm sure I'll give it a watch when the next 6 episodes come out but this doesn't seem like a series that's headed for a long life.
Stephen Graham (Sugar) is very well known
(Snatch, Gangs of NY, Pirates of the Caribbean, Boardwalk empire, Peaky blinders ect.)

It not perfect but I enjoyed the show

Trying out 'Tacoma FD' and thus far it is hilarious.

“The Pitt” is amazing!!! Haven’t seen this good of a medical drama since the early episodes of ER.

Noah Wyle is excellent and so is the rest of the cast.

Just came here to say The Pitt might be best show on TV right now. This latest episode was pretty intense. Then good luck getting through that one episode without crying. I think maybe episode 4 or 5.

That last episode of The Pitt seemed to flash by in the blink of an eye. Just so much happening, and it's so engaging. A really, really good show.

It is TVMA, correct?
(Which would automatically make it better than any other hospital drama ever).

It sure is. I had to turn away a few times during the real birth scene in episode 11. It depicted the medical side to an emergency birth.

I just finished watching Adolescence on Netflix. Not sure if they're planning on making more... I really like how they do the full episodes in a one take. It really shows you how talented the actors are, being able to act that long and their range.

It's really visceral, especially as a father.

The ending of episode 4 broke me as a father though. I cried pretty hard.

I watched both the Invincible and Severance seasons finals on the same day. Wow what an emotional roller coaster. Clearly the secret to being one of the best shows on TV is a protagonist named Mark who is not having a good time.

Hopefully won’t be waiting 2 years or more for the next seasons.
