"Watched the lot of Our Planet on Netflix... absolute staggering series... showing the natural world in all it's magnificent glory along with the environmental messages that we should all be taking on board in these times.... I think the main message I got whilst watching this series is that walrus's can't fly... In all seriousness.... Sir David Attenborough.... ""What we do in the next 20 years will determine the future for all life on Earth"""

"Bit old but finished the latest season of Startup on Prime. Not amazing but good enough to keep going. Martin Freeman in earlier series and Ron Perlman in later ones.. Edi Gathegi, an actor I didn't know much from is good throughout."

"Not very original, or new, but Justified for me all day long. Even after Elmore Leonard's death when he was acting in a production/directorial role, the series maintained the whip-sharp dialogue that was Leonard's hallmark. Excellent core cast, along with regular cameo/short-term appearances from such as Eric Roberts, Sam Phillips, Mary Steenburgen etc. My favourites were Neil McDonagh as Robert Quarrels (season 3) , Walt Goggins as Boyd Crowder, Jeremy Davies as Dicky Bennett and Margo Martindale as his mother - the scary Mags. Sorry to go on at length, but if I say I've watched all six seasons 30 times I'm probably underestimating. Sure it has some unevenness and flat spots, but that was mainly early on before it hit it's stride. Usual disclaimers, see what you think."

"Kidders - the beginning of season 3 is notoriously slow, stick with it and things will hot up at the end of the series. Btw - thanks all for The Sopranos, excellent viewing"

"Just finished True Detective 3. The acting is great with Stephen Dorff and Mahershala Ali as the cops and a lot of good minor characters. The plot was set up well with several nods to TD1, but ran out of steam a bit maybe in the last episode."
