"Watched the first 2 episodes of ""Yellowstone"" season 5 last night and they didn't disappoint ! For those without Paramount plus it's on KODI.... The Promise. After being advised on here to get a VPN the picture quality was superb."

"Late to the party on this one, but enjoying Babylon Berlin. Into series two of four, sort of noir/detective/plotting in pre-Nazi Weimar Germany with a lot of sex in decadent nightclubs and street violence between the far right and communists. Bit of Bryan Ferry too, doing the nightclub crooning, unexpectedly."

"Yep, the last episode was good. I need something to get my teeth into and since there isn't much I fancy I think I will try Ozark again, couldn't get into it last time and ditched it after around 5 episodes but may try again."

House of Dragons. I’m going to save ten hours of your life. It’s a fantasy show. Written by Doris’s for screaming blue hair Doris’s. It’s has a couple bloody birth scenes. And a few CGI Dragons. Not a patch on the original source material. But it was this. Or the Amazon take on Lord of the Rings.

Just finishing SAS: Rogue Heroes and although I completely agree that this could have been done in a different way and been our Band of Brothers and my god would I have loved to have seen it shot that way it is still a very entertaining series. Jack O'Connell is first class in it.

"5 episodes in, and after a slow start, The White Lotus, is brewing up nicely. Not doing a bad job of selling Sicily as a holiday destination. Some stunning actresses too. Where is Yellow jackets available to view. Doesn't seem to be on any of Disney+ apps etc yet?"
