I’ve been alternating between Grandchester, The Tunnel and Counterpart (all on Prime). They’re all good. None of them are great with The Tunnel being the best of the 3 so far, IMO.

We really liked Grantchester, but it hits a “sign up for pbs” wall after S4 or 5.

[T.G.]

Finished S1 of "The Tunnel" on Amazon.  It got better with each episode and I thought it was very good.  Another great suggestion.  Still working on "Counterpart" and "Grandchester" - but "The Tunnel" got to be so good, I couldn't leave it to watch the others.

Binged “We Own This City” this weekend - just a super watchable show. While it’s not The Wire it does feel like a spiritual epilogue to the series with entirely different characters.

Dope. I was looking at the HBO packages earlier today to throw this on and finally catchup on Succession.

Yes.

Good, not great.

we finished watching "the Old Man."  

agree with lou - it's good but not great.

it ended at kind of an odd place in the story.

Amazon or Hulu: WPC 56

this is a show about the first women's police constable in 1956. not really many surprises in this one, but it's enjoyable, and the main character is a truly beautiful woman.

[Redondo]

Finished S2 Counterpart

Good, not great IMO

Quite a few flat episodes

Spoiler

Was wondering at the end if Emily from the other side would cross over to be with Howard

Better Call Saul series finale was perfection.

[cysomeawfulpitcher]

Nope 

Not as great as Get Out but an improvement over Us which was just all over the place with film school symbolism.  Great supporting role by underrated veteran character actor Michael Wincott.  Thankfully, Peele hasn't gone full latter day M Night, yet.

Don't know if you read my spoiler earlier (when you were watching it). But that's basically what I thought. Seemed like it was about 15-20 minutes away from ending when it ended.

Finished S1 of “Counterpart” on Prime. Another show that gets better as it progresses through the season.

So great.

Showtime:  The United States of Tara  This was a fun little comedy.  Only 3 seasons, with an incomplete ending.  But was a fun watch.

The new Elvis movie is available to rent or buy, on Google Play.

$24.99 to buy, $19.99 to rent.

So I watched the trailer. Looks kind of shitty.

Pass.
