I'm half-way through S9 of The Big Bang Theory on a great catch-up and it remains as wittily written as ever.

I'm catching up with Season 2 of "Fleabag." For those who don't know, it's written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Killing Eve, Broadchurch) who also plays the eponymous heroine, along with Andrew Scott (Sherlock), Olivia Coleman (Everything), Brett Gelman (Stranger Things), Sian Clifford, and Bill Paterson. Kristin Scott Thomas and Fiona Shaw guest star.
It's an adult comedy that ranges from bitter-sweet to slapstick, sometimes in the space of one scene.

I've just started watching Arrested Development after a recommendation by a friend. I'm not sure whether it's more cringing than funny, but I'll give a couple more episodes a go.

I really like both Broadchurch and Killing Eve. |

I really like both Broadchurch and Killing Eve. It's nothing like either, except perhaps for the dark sense of humour in parts of killing eve. No murders yet, either.  |

Frankie Boyle's New World Order started again on BBC2 this week. Catch it on iPlayer if you missed it. Rude and quite often, right on the money.

Both Derry Girls and Fleabag finished their runs this week. Derry Girls will get a third series, Fleabag is gone forever. Bummer.

Life in pieces
Amazon Prime plus others
Watched a bit of the first episode and gave up.
Dragging myself back to it to get past the annoying ad Amazon keep putting up I was engaged then hooked
There are some hysterical scenes that will have you laughing very loudly.
Rarely seen the boss laugh so much at any TV
Watch an episode or 3 if not convinced right away

Yes, we watched all of this last year. Very good and extremely funny.
We're currently watching 'Corner Gas', which is apparently massively successful in Canada - two sitting Canadian Prime Ministers have appeared in it at various times.
Very good and a bit silly - especially if you have been to Saskatchewan!
