We are watching The marvelous Mrs Maisel on Prime. Quite funny and nice cosy 50's Kodachrome NY setting. Kodachrome Other than that, I'm revisiting Breaking Bad - Beteches Seen Jack Ryan at the top the whole time, but the US Open tennis has been taking most of my screen time attention these last to weeks.

Finished Westworld S2 at last. Pretty mindblowing and I can't claim to have followed it completely. This was nice, for the final scene...

I don't care if it is rather cocky to quote my own post, but this is the best bit of telly I've seen this year. I knew that 15 minutes in. It helps a bit that I already knew the characters but it's not a prerequisite by any means. It's raw, it's downright vulgar in places, and it's British telly at its superb best. Your opinion may differ, obviously, but I'd urge you to give it a go if you've never seen it before.

I've just started on Jack Ryan. A terrorist thriller with less of the focus on action and more portrayal of both sides of the divide. The pilot was good so I shall continue.

I've just watched the first two episodes of the BBC's "Killing Eve" on iPlayer, and it's rather good. It's got a really good cast, and I'm predicting plot-twists. It's on BBC1 on Saturday nights, or the whole thing is binge-watchable on iPlayer.

I am quite enjoying watching Gotham on Netflix at the moment. Usual stuff, it doesn't take a lot of brain power, but it is fun.

Good fun and, as you say, no real concentration required. It's also fun to see the genesis of some well-known (and not so well-known) characters. "Supernatural" is another fun series I'd rank alongside it. I can't believe I'm watching series 13 now.

Has anyone tried Star Trek: Discovery yet? I've just watched the first episode and it's quite promising, although tough to reconcile it being set 10 years before TOS.
Sonequa Martin-Green makes a good lead actress.

Nicely set up for another series. Which I won't watch.
