Brilliant. I’ve got to be close to double figures of reruns myself. Scrolling through the programme listings , it’s just too tempting.

What you gonna do?

4.37am ? Have you no bed to go to ?

Set my alarm to see the sun rise.
Sadly, a throwback to working shifts.

Thought you were having a late night instead of an early morning.

Sorry to disappoint

[The Subhuman]

The Old Man on Disney. Bridges and Lithgow in supreme form and it's been excellent so far

That's it OB, Tony Soprano never disappoints.

I quite enjoyed The Day of The Jackal series starring Eddie Redmayne, the soundtrack was well matched too.

[Barlow Boy]

Thanks to those who recommended the ITV drama, Joan.

Didn’t think it would be my thing, but enjoyed it. Must have spent most of their budget on cigarettes though

[The Subhuman]

The upcoming Salt Path looks like it might be very good. Up there with The Last Bus and The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, but this one's main star will be the South West Coast path

I'm guessing some will moan about the accent though

The missus is going away for a week tomorrow so going for a re-run of Band of Brothers.

Agree with others that The Sopranos is the best ever series - brilliant characters!

Nah, Boardwalk Empire is far better.

I have just finished re-watching the Sopranos
Am about to re-watch Boardwalk empire very soon
Just watched the Wire for the 1st time....- Brilliant

Am 2 episodes into American Privevil - very violent... Like it
Just watched Yellowstone from beginning to end
Just watched Squid game 2... not as good as the 1st
Just started the series Ray Donovan

American Primeval was great, hope it gets a 2nd season.
Most westerns lack the brutality of those times.

I'll mention Slow Horses again as it's up there as one of Gary Oldman's best work.

Brilliant series Brad

[Orange Box]

AMERICAN PRIMEVAL on Netflix. Wow. I’ve just binged all 6 episodes in one sitting (my bum is numb).

A Western, very similar in quality and storytelling to REVENANT (also wow) it relates parallel tales of two strong women trying to survive the civil war conflict between the US Army and the Mormons. I didn’t know this history but it seems the Osmonds weren’t the worst thing these guys inflicted on the world.

A good cast, one of those where you recognise the actor but can’t actually name most of them without the aid of IMDB.

Edit note: previously posted on a pirate thread, apologies if you’ve read this before.

[BradWhite]

Brilliant series Brad

Yeah I loved it and it looks like a 2nd series is going to happen.

[Prisoner37]

Haven't watched it Chilli but have to now to see if I agree or not.

[The Subhuman]

Judging by tastes (I don't like The Sopranos/Breaking Bad/Walking Dead/The Wire) here this will be a poor list for most but off the top of my head

Halo
Will Trent
Fallout
Kaos
House of the Dragon
Paris Has Fallen
Lincoln Lawyer
Three Body Problem
The Night Agent (new series coming soon)

[The Subhuman]

Black Doves is excellent so far too, not got to the end of that yet

enjoyed Departure too, though a lot of plot holes (doesn't bother me tbf) and dodgy dialogue
