We just got Britbox and have watched a few episodes of The Cleaner. Pretty funny, but looks like there's just a single season out so far. The main character is a crime scene cleaner who manages to find some pretty quirky characters at every place that he's sent to clean up.

Kaleidoscope is interesting. Not sure I understand the point of the way they play the episodes in a different order every time. Not sure If I've seen them all yet, but I watched a bunch and saw one that seemed like the ending. Confused.

RE Yellowstone: I've watched a few seasons now. Anyone notice how it is never winter in this show? Like there's never any snow or anything. 5 seasons in and these folks are supposed to be in Montana, which I hear is cold AF in the winter. But I cannot remember a single episode where it snows. It is always either summer or like, maybe fall.

Hasn't been a single one, verified. There's occasionally a few patches on the surrounding mountains, but always just remnants. Turns out, cowboys/girls aren't so tough after all.

Beth can't wear her scanty clothing in the cold.

RE Yellowstone:

We just finished 1883. Really, really good. Starting into 1923 now, Ford/Mirren is some combination.

For some reason the whole franchise had been off my radar

Yep, been enjoying both of those. Supposedly some of the most expensive series to have been shot since game of thrones.

But just imagine her incredible face surrounded by faux wolf fur and covered in snow flakes ........

Really, really good? I need some of that Seattle weeeeeed.

My wife and I called it "The Whore of the Plains" because, well....that's basically what it was about. A whore. On the plains.

Now I'm intrigued.

Yeah .... guess I got bored too early.
Still not gonna go back, though.

[yeahman]

Just started the second season of Reservation Dogs. Fucking love that show.

Can't watch Yellowstone, it moves too damn slow.

True, but the expectation of waiting for Beth to lose her shit is ....... delicious.

Apparently they aren't gonna stop the Yellowstone spinoffs with 1923. They are going to do 40's and 60's I read somewhere. I like it, I don't think it is slow at all. Plenty of storylines to follow. But I can see kids being bored with it. I remember my parents watching 'Dallas" when I was a kids and it drove me nuts. This is very similar I would think.

Beth is a cunt, and I like her character less each episode. Waiting for her and Jamie to kill each other is great though.

Wife and I are enjoying Mr. Inbetween. Australian hitman show from FX, short episodes. Some hits and misses. Funny, and though the hitman developing a conscience thing is well worn, it's entertaining and done well.

Getting sick of Yellowstone too, but wife still wants to watch it. You can tell the writers are spent. Too much phoning it in with cowboy visuals or one mega dramabomb. What I want to know is how Yellowstone and Succession ended up being produced at the same time. No way it was a coincidence.

I did not mind watching that hot little blonde chick in 1883.

As close as you’ll get to a hot little blonde?

I'm not sure where else it's available (we found it on Acorn), but my wife and I watched a good series last night called "Code of a Killer." It's a three part miniseries that discusses the advent of DNA fingerprinting and how it was first used in a criminal investigation near Leicester, England in the mid-80s. The scientist who developed the method was working at Leicester University and a police detective investigating two rapes and murders nearby heard about the technique (up till then it had only been used for paternity testing) and asked the scientist whether the DNA technique could be used to ID criminals. The science part is interesting, but there are also a few twists in turns in the murder investigation making it a very compelling story all around.

We’re enjoying Wednesday.

We recently rewatched The Rings of Power and enjoyed it more the second time. I thought it moved faster on rewatch.

We watched one episode of Yellowstone, and that was enough. It’s basically Dallas. And living in Montana, it carries some baggage.

1923, though- a period piece with Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren? OK.

Just started Derry Girls, and it definitely has its moments.

The best moments always seem to involve the church.

The English on Amazon. Red herring is ending but still good.

[bagtagley]

I searched but didn’t see it mentioned. Bad Sisters on Apple TV was excellent. Dark and really funny.

Got me looking into Sharon Horgan’s other stuff. Currently watching Catastrophe which started out great but has fizzled a bit in later seasons.
