Are you streaming ( or binge watching ) any series on Netflix, or any other service? Tell us about it.

I've been watching a lot of detective type shows, mostly in
the UK and over that-a-way.....one repetitive thing is that
the female detectives almost always are phsycotic as hell!!!
I mean they are flat out crazy, course thats the way that the
thing is written up....they just act out the director/producer
wants......

What shows are you watching? I'm a fan of British shows as well and I can't say I've noticed that. Maybe we're watching different shows?

We just wrapped up Adolescence on Netflix, which follows the case of a 13 year-old boy who stabs and kills a female classmate. It is not so much a crime drama as it is a commentary on raising children in this day and age. The way his parents were affected had me in tears at the end

I just finished Adolescence and have the same thoughts as you. The acting was amazing and the one shot direction for each episode kept me engaged at all times.

Before watching Adolescence I watched Dept. Q. I'm going to need to find something light and nonsensical to watch next.

I watched a few seasons of that; now I can't remember why I stopped. Sometimes I just get tired of shows.

That almost happened with me. The first 3 seasons were great, really funny. Season 4 they must have changed writers and it was nowhere near as good. A lot of people bailed out there. I soldiered through and Season 5 got better but still did not compare to the first 3 seasons.

I agree. The first three seasons originally appeared on Fox and ended around 2006 due to poor ratings. Netflix decided to bring back the series 7 years later and it didn't click with me. I have rewatched the first three seasons a few times and still laugh at all the puns and gags.

Timeless 2016 TV series.

Only 2 seasons, I guess (as so often) science fiction is over the heads of general audiences. We have lost so many great shows before their time!

Time travel crime and conspiracy chase. But who are really the good guys, and the bad?


I'm watching on Tubi.

Started it, but didn't keep up with it.

I just finished 'Life' (2007) with Damien Lewis and Sarah Shahi, 32 eps. I was happy to see it end cleanly, no major cliffhanger. Research says it was only canceled because of the Writers Strike back then.

I really liked Life and was disappointed when it was canceled. It made me really like Damien Lewis and I did like their pairing. At some point, I wouldn't mind watching it again.

That's probably when and why I stopped.
 
In preparation and anticipation of the new season of the Bear, coming this month, I'm re-watching the entire 4 seasons. What a great show. They won all kinds of Emmys in the category "Comedy," which I never understood, didn't think it was a comedy. Well, I must've missed lot on the first go-round, bc now I'm LMAO.
