OK. Watched the last episode of Rings of Power. NOW I know who The Stranger is!! LOL Did you like the series Draclvr?
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

LOVED it and hated to see the last episode! I really want more soon.
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

Okay, so I just finished The Leftovers. That was quite a ride. One of the strangest and most emotionally charged shows I've ever seen.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I've been eyeing Sandman.
I have two episodes left to watch in Rings of Power. I think I know who Strange man is, right from the start, so I'm dying to know if I'm right.
EDIT: I see that The Sinner, Bill Pullman's series, now has a Season 4, which I will happily watch.

I liked Sandman too. This week is the last episode of House of the Dragon season one. I'm going to miss it.

Ah, good. Now I can watch House of the Dragon.
I was right about the strange man. I had no clue about Sauron, though.

Just going back a few, emotionally charged is an excellent encapsulation of The Leftovers hagatha Sandman was very good, if at times a little episodic. And I did binge Rings of Power right through before watching the last one and certainly enjoyed that.
Quantity has a quality all of its own

The Guardian review of The Rings of Power was less than stellar -- a LOT less, actually -- but what do they know?
The Sinner is delivering once again, with Bill Pullman's withdrawn, obsessive and possibly suicidal cop talking to dead people while he solves their murders. It's a quick watch, but I really enjoy it.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

The Patient is well worth a watch. Steve Carell in a very dramatic role - who knew?

Has anyone watch Succession on HBO? I was late to the party but I'm really enjoying it.

I haven't watched Succession but a friend of mine highly recommends it.
Since the last episode of House of the Dragon drops tomorrow, I've started watching it. I love that they used the same theme, just speeded up a bit. So far I'm enjoying it, with Matt Smith suitably menacing right from the get-go. He'll make a wonderful Mad Targaryen.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Hey, I just found Grimm on one of my streaming services, and it look as though all of the seasons to date are there. That will be my next watch, I think.

Sounds like Season 2 will be out in early 2024. Bummer.
I also enjoyed the Wheel of Time, though I cannot see Amazon paying to produce a series of the entire 14 or so novels. Though it must be said that a lot of those novels was just filler, I thought. They did go on. And on. I finally gave up when RJ died. I'm not keen on Brandon Sanderson.

Hope you enjoy Grimm - excellent undemanding but quite interesting and very enjoyable entertainment! We are really enjoying Wisting which I think is now in its fourth season - very dark Scandi noir so you need a strong stomach, but a nice slow burn with great cast and very good production values and plot development Disappointed to learn that the next season of For All Mankind will probably not become available for another twelve months...

Lex, I wasn't sure about Grimm for the first few episodes, but now that the actors have their characters set and the plotting is starting to have an overall story arc and some background mythology, it's quite enjoyable. I'll definitely continue watching it.

Just watched the last episode of House of the Dragon. I hate having to wait forever for the next season!
