What tv shows are you watching

- Start date
Great scenery
Great theme song
Costner doing his best...Kelly Reilly steals the show as Beth Dutton though.
Worth the watch I feel.
The English is a 6 episode television miniseries that I liked better.....
History of Country MUSIC on PBS, 9 episodes of how country music in the USA began back into the early 1900s produced by Ken Burns. This is a repeàt from a few years ago and it is IMO the best series of any subject I have ever seen, mind you, I loved the old style of that music. It shows many of the great country artists going back to and before Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, and so many more up to the recent years. Not only does it show their writing and singing abilities but also their personal history and shows such as her, born in 1946 in Tennessee, one of 12 siblings. I can watch it forever.
I just finished The English. Very well done with very beautiful scenery and very beautiful Emily Blunt. It's weird and difficult to follow, but it eventually comes together. I highly recommend.
Great series, but it seems that the last half of the final season will never be aired. It hasn't been shot yet, and even if the writers/actors strikes get settled Kevin Costner has said he's not interested in doing it...
Everything leading up to that is a good watch though.
If you want to talk sports there's a section for that. This is a thread people interested in TV shows.
Spoiler alert!
So I finally got around to streaming Succession, it took his father's death for Roman Roy to stop being a scroffo. Among my favorite shows it ranks No.4.
4: Succession
3: Breaking Bad
2: The Rockford Files
1: The Sopranos
Something nags me lately, Attorney Beth Davenport never flaunted it on The Rockford Files.
Gretchen Corbett...this clip nearly fried my brain.

Jimmy Baby spent a great deal of time making his lawyer piss herself. Jimmy did all his own car stunts and Gretchen never missed an opportunity to ride along.
I got through watching Lockwood & Co. last night and I'm once again not impressed with Netflix for cancelling another great show that seems like it had potential.
I've mentioned this before but there's all this talk about finding their next Stranger Things, something they might be able to do if they would stop canning series after one season.
I feel like I have to surrender my geek credentials for this but I finally started to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The new season of Only Murders in the Building has been great so far and I'm still making my way through Daisy Jones and the Six.

Amazon Prime and Disney + are bringing up the rear in streaming revenue. Prime has had some expensive flops most notably The Ring of Power, they've committed to second season whether they're going ahead with it remains to be seen.

They also sank a lot of money into Citadel and that one received of hate and low viewership. I guess I must be easy to please since I actually enjoyed it.
Of all the fantasy shows on Prime, I prefer The Wheel of Time. The Gryphon was also really good, though apparently it's been cancelled. Given the way that streamer is canning shows, I'm not getting my hopes up on WoT getting a third season.
Currently watching '' Prime Suspect'' with Helen Mirren

This launched Mirren into superstardom in Britain at the time. Just excellent viewing I must say.

When it comes to crime dramas, the Brits do it better than the Americans, BritBox is excellent value for the money. Luther is also available on CBC Gem. On Sept 21 Netflix launches the 4th Season of their cash cow Sex Education. Which proves the cliche, great risk, great reward...it also helps having Gillian Anderson as a psychologist and den mother to a bunch of horny teens.
I Claudius re-wrote the book on TV dramas, it was rated X by British censors before it aired. It still has an 8.8/10 audience score on IMDB, it made superstars out of John Hurt and Patrick Stewart.
Jean Luc has hair!
