For All Mankind is back for another season on Apple TV +: not yet as compelling as the earlier seasons, but it may get there! We are also watching a rather strange but enjoyable new comedy thriller on BBC - Boat Story

I recently finished watching Barry. The first two seasons were excellent; I thought it started to take itself too seriously in the last two seasons, but it is still well worth watching.
On a recommendation from a family member I started watching A Discovery of Witches but the casting of the two leads seems way off and I found it tiresome and hard to watch as a result. I'll have to go back to my various lists to find something else.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

A Discovery of Witches is on my list... I did like the books.

We enjoyed the first series of Discovery of Witches, but not so much some of the later ones. Currently on the fourth season of For All Mankind but have also started again at season one: that is such an exceptional bit of TV - top quality near future SF, very highly recommended.

Am watching the current season as well Lex and agree with your take. The new season of Fargo is tickling my fancy as well

I enjoyed Discovery of Witches and Wheel of Time. I'm watching Mayfair Witches and waiting for Sanctuary: A Witches Tale.

I loved the first seasons of Fargo but I don't think it's streaming on any of my platforms. I'll have to check.
I'm in the middle of Season 2 of Sweet Home.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

The current season of Fargo is one of their best! We are loving it.
We're also watching the new season of Reacher.

I watched Shutter Island yesterday and really enjoyed it [Haven't seen it for years.] I think I have the PC Game somewhere too, so I will have to dig it out and see how it compares

Looking forward to the final epsiode of this season of Fargo. All nicely set up, to say the least! In the meantime finished the current season of For All Mankind. Not as strong as some other seasons but still a good watch. I also read a rather interesting article that said the way things are developing it feels a bit like a prequel to The Expanse (a very excellent series akso). I can see where that idea comes from. I didn't know there was a game version of that Mad. I will have to check it out.

I'm watching Bodies, which is pretty good. A time-travel whodunnit.
I just realized that my Crave streaming service has the whole Fargo series so that will definitely be my next pick.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

flotsam, I'm very excited to see how Fargo will wrap up. Definitely one of the best seasons yet! I love Dot!
I'm also really looking forward to the season finale of Found.

I am going to hate to see Fargo end this season. I agree - one of the best seasons yet! Jon Hamm grew up in Missouri and is well-known in the St. Louis area. He is playing the perfect villain! I can't remember the actor's name who is playing Gator, but he is also sweet Steve on Stranger Things. Now that's a change in roles! And the creepy Old Munch dude is awesome.

Bah! Turns out Fargo isn't on my streaming service, after all. It shows up in the search but it is "not available." Not sure what that's all about.
I just watched Red Rose, which really picked up steam as the episodes went on.
Before that I watched Fool Me Once, which was utterly forgettable; so much so that I actually had to go and look up its name just now.
Currently I'm watching Hellbound, which has an intriguing premise but is ultra-violent; excessively so, IMHO, and I don't usually mind violence if it serves the plot.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.
