Catching up on all the series of Clarkson's Farm, which is of special interest because it's filmed in my other half's home town (home village?) and we have great fun spotting the locations and familiar faces. Someone said this series did more to highlight the problems faced by British farmers than any official studies could ever do. And it's funny.

After my abandonment of Andor, I have turned to The Mandalorian. It's been fun so far.

I had written a historical novel partly set in Hastings but I could never manage to get there and see it so I was interested in belatedly catching glimpses of the beach and surrounding countryside.

Almost forgot Foyle's War.  I wish I'd stopped at the end of WW2 and skipped the cold war.  He's great, but the stories are a little darker.
...had to give up on the Cold War episodes as I didn't like them. Not sure if it was because of the spies or the change of location from Hastings to London, or whether I just needed a change of viewing!

Fan of Foyle's War and his post-war.  Spent a month in Hastings earlier this year and can understand why Foyle fled to London - Hastings is now as it was then beaten up and rundown.  But St Leonards-on-Sea a pleasant stroll away is charming and its shingle beach more inviting, tho' unsure crooks allowed Foyle much beach time.  Reminded me never to look behind what the camera lets me see.  :icon_eek:

ETA: Almost forgot Foyle's War.  I wish I'd stopped at the end of WW2 and skipped the cold war.  He's great, but the stories are a little darker.
I hadn't realised until recently that Foyle's War continued past the end of the war. I hadn't watched it regularly and had only caught a few random episodes when it was first shown, but during my convaleacence last year I tried to watch the whole thing on Netflix but had to give up on the Cold War episodes as I didn't like them. Not sure if it was because of the spies or the change of location from Hastings to London, or whether I just needed a change of viewing!

My Life is Murder is really good.  Have to sign up again to see the new season! 

Recipes for Love and Murder is good, Harry Wild too...and of course Miss Fisher.  :cheers

In the field of somewhat cozy mystery, Acorn's Art Detectives is nice.

Also from Acorn is the Australian series, My Life is Murder, is light. The mystery element is well done.

Casting trivia: the first one stars Stephen Moyer, who also starred in True Blood, among other things. The second one stars Lucy Lawless, who was once Xena: Warrior Princess

The years seem to have been good to both of them.

Pluribus is interesting. Rhea Sehorn won the Golden globe.



I also like Fallout - Walter Goggin is top notch.



Arg... I know the difference between "one" and "won." What I don't know is how to check for flawed autocorrect.

Person of Interest is a gem!

I watched the first season of Talamasca, which shows promise, at least if you're an Anne Rice fan. Suspenseful, with some surprises about who the good guys really are.

I'm watching The Institute right now. Definitely different from the book in terms of details, but so far, faithful to its spirit.
