Bloody hell, it’s two-part, and the second part is a series 
Finally got round to watching season 4 of Slow Horses. Binge watched all six episodes, now feeling miserable I have to wait for season 5

I wrote this about Severance after my S1 rewatch. I’m watching S2 week by week as they come out and having the same sort of reaction I had to S1 when I first watched it. It’s odd. It has my attention, but I wouldn’t say I am exactly enjoying it. I am trying to not get too caught up in trying to solve the mysteries or decode the hints and just let it happen as I think that path leads to inevitable disappointment. I wonder if not participating in that part of the show is why I am enjoying it less than others (those who are doing that)?

I am also watching a new Mystery Box show on Hulu called Paradise. It focuses on a USSS agent responsible for the security of what appears to be an ex-president in his post-office life who one morning checks in on him and finds him dead after beating beaten over the head. The first episodes hints at a big scandal in his presidency (is that why he is now dead) and conflict between the agent and the ex pres (is that going to implicate him in the murder), but then the end of the first episode has a huge bombshell that completely changes the trajectory of the show.
Its really fucking stupid, but in a “I can’t take my eyes off this stupidity” way. Like Manifest.

Two episodes in an all I can say so far not much has happened but it is really quintessentially White Lotus and is marvelous. He really has landed on a way of doing something different with each season but still so incredibly familiar that even when not much is happening in the first two episodes it feels worthwhile
His characters are awful and its great to watch.

Well, that should fill in for my blank football weekend. I might give St Pauli vs Dortmund a go as well.

Don’t forget to have that bowl of onions you will be peeling at the same time at your side though…You know, just in case someone walks into the TV room when it is on

I was not feeling great yesterday after a really long day at work the day before so knocked off early and lay down in front of some mindless tv. I picked the Uber Dramatization Super Pumped with JGL and Kyle Chandler. It was awful in a way that you could tell in retrospect it was made by the people who made Billions. But the story is still compelling enough to stick with it.
In the end it was good choice of trashy interesting tv for where I was

What did everyone think of the Klopp doc then? Thought it was fine. Emotional ending.
Would have liked a bit more behind the scenes stuff ala All or Nothing, but I suspect that much of that was edited out when results didn’t fit the predetermined narrative last season.

Poignant, interesting, but as with when Shankly left, better things followed.

Prime Target on Apple is possibly the dumbest show I have ever seen. Cliche ridden (he’s a maths genius, the sort who is so smart even his university professors seem like fools to him, and we know he is a maths genius because here he is stading at a black board saying maths stuff like “an even and even can never be an odd”), with a plot driven forward by everyone being dumb and with answers that dont make sense outside of the universe of the show. Imagine a 12 year old with mediocre intelligence read their first Dan Brown book and then was inspired to make a tv show in the same spirit. That is what you have here.
It could just be a coincidence of what I have watched lately, but it really feels like the big streamers have made a change to fully embrace a return to the mindless stupidity of 90s-00s network dramas. This, Paradise, the new De Niro Netflix one, all insane and dumb as shit.

My wife enjoyed this show but i agree with you, it really felt like one of those weak ITV/bbc shows, which i can understand appearing on Netflix but less so in Apple.
Wife got me watching Traitors.
We then watched Traitors US, only palatable by having an entertaining host.
Just had a look at Traitors Australia.
What a fucking dreary bunch, compounded by a dreary presenter
After many hours of research I have concluded that this is true and confirms that said character is indeed a genius.
