On telly this week

Hulk was an eye opener - as a (pause to google dates) 10 year old, I first became aware of the 'formula', as Bixby hulked out at exactly the same times every episode - 25 mins in, and then again at the end.

I have the entire Bill Bixby Hulk downloaded onto my ehd - but I daren't watch it

Once Upon a Time in Northern Ireland

Dredged up some serious shit for me.

Don't binge this.

Keep forgetting to watch stuff on Apple TV+ but am trying to rectify that...

Four episodes into Silo, and it's great. Intelligent, compelling stuff.

Just started Hijack and am thoroughly gripped after one episode.

Excited for S2 of Foundation to start in a few days.

...And will be totally there for the next series of Slow Horses as soon as it starts. TBH, this series alone is probably worth the (relatively) inexpensive sub.

And I haven't even touched For All Mankind, which I keep hearing great things about, but haven't got round to yet...

I'm on the third episode and it's great. Keeps you guessing. Made me guess wrong a lot. Goos show. Idris Elba *Swoon*

I loved it - you're in for a treat!

I'm up to Ep4 of the new Marvel offering, Secret Invasion, and I'm loving it. Sam Jackson's on fire, and lifting everyone around him. It's like Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and Aliens had really dangerous sex and then this popped out.

[The Legendary Shark]

Ep 5 now. Jackson is great throughout but in this episode Olivia Coleman absolutely steals the show for me. Anyone else enjoying this as much as I am? I hope so!

Yeah, I am. Seeing a lot of sniffiness about this online, but not from me!

[Trooper McFad]

A thumbs up from me for Secret Invasion - I also concur on Coleman's performance in Ep5 - show stealer 👍🏻

[Jim_Campbell]

Yeah, I am. Seeing a lot of sniffiness about this online, but not from me!

Fizzled out disappointingly and pointlessly, TBH. Coleman and Jackson were great, as always, but the end arrived and I really just felt... what was the point of all that?

[The Legendary Shark]

Yeah, that's what I thought. A bit obvious, too. Still, the journey was good even though the destination wasn't all that.

I took your advice and watched one episode at a time.
I was Safe, Sound, and South when all this was going on, but these programmes made for raw viewing all the same.
Tear-jerking in places – compelling throughout.

I concur the final episode was totally underwhelming. Even the "big" fight was meh for me. Any way let's see what the 2nd half of the Witchers season will bring.

Just started this and, wow, it's compelling stuff.
