"Gave Reacher a go, bit of a slog but will finish season 1 as it's OK. I like the main character, but the plot etc is nothing new and just feels like something you have seen 100 times before. What happened to the great shows, instead of mediocre stuff like this?"

Two very different recommendations. Criminal Record (Apple). Peter Capaldi starts as an aging and possibly corrupt cop. I've never taken to him as an actor but he's excellent in this. The Flight attendant. Comedy drama starring the gorgeous Kaley Cuoco as an alcoholic sex addict who gets involved in the murder of a very dodgy family.

"Same. Just finished the first series and thought it was very good quality. Well written, well shot and well acted. Surprisingly a largely unknown cast too. Also catching up on Succession which is as good as people suggested. Some really amusing moments in there."

Zico. Last episode of series 2 air's on Friday. Just as entertaining as the first series. Also for any Cohen Brother's fans. This Series of Fargo is well worth the binge.

For any like I who was late to the party re watching Reacher on Prime I have just finished the first series in three days and thought it was brilliant. Well worth a watch if you haven't seen it.
