I like Mare and Nevers, also the BBC were showing Tinker Tailor again, enjoying Alec Guinness ruminating on whom the mole might be... am hoping Smiley's People will be on next.
Just finished watching Series 1 of The Nevers. Fairly interesting & rather different, I quite enjoyed it. Although the series Finale had us wondering if we were watching the same show.

Wife's been watching "This is us" on Prime - halfway through S1, I happened to be in the room and it grabbed my attention - pretty good and a bit different to my usual preferences (hence why wife decided to watch on her own).
finished watching all 4 seasons of snowfall - not sure how i missed this but a great recommendation and well worth a watch (i'd put it up there with narcos )
Clarkson's Farm on Amazon.
Lupin on Netflix (French, don't know if it's on the UK's version of Netflix).
Bosch season 7 (and final season) on Amazon, starting on June 25th.
‘sweet tooth’ on netflix, watched the first last night. Looks interesting and different.
Loki, Disney +, against 1st episode in and I must say it looks absolutely brilliant !
Has Time been mentioned yet?
Gripping 3 parter from Jimmy McGovern about prison life.
If this doesn’t keep you on the right side of the law, nothing will.
Superb all round with great performances from Stephen Graham and Sean Bean .

Another recommendation for Clarkson's Farm on Amazon.
Another upvote for Time.
The documentary about the Challenger Disaster on Netflix is also compelling.
may of been suggested before but Mr Inbetween is amazing, 100% worth a go

Really enjoying the Patriot on Amazon, quite dry/funny and a bit of a Cohen bros vibe about it.
Your wife will enjoy Sex/Life on Netflix.
There is a definite dearth of good new series on any provider at the moment - presumably due to the pandemic shutting down a lot of production.
Hopefully we'll see some great stuff coming soon, as I've watched most of what appeals to me at the moment!
So clever my foot fell off.
I can't imagine many here watch this but I can't stop watching that weird dating show where they're all naked and the screen goes up bit by bit. It's like a car crash in slow motion every episode.
Also right after that the plastic surgery show "Botched" is on and it's another complete car crash that I just can't stop looking at.
im not sure tbh, i dont really watch UK TV channels (apart from football)
but seems Hulu has it: https://www.hulu.com/series/mr-inbet...4-f5930ca4ac2f
I've just binged the entire seven seasons of 'The Shield' on Amazon Prime.
Not a new series, but brilliantly written and acted. And as this review intimates, the last season was phenomenal.

Finished the first 6 episodes of Loki, it's pretty good.
Just in the process of watching season 3 of Dave Turin’ Lost Gold Mines. Not what I was expecting and very watchable. Anyone else watching?
(I haven’t seen the first two seasons).

I recommended Mad Men to a colleague a couple of months back and he’d come in most days talking about the episodes. Made me decide to rewatch from the beginning and it was even better second time round. It’s amazing the amount of things I’d not picked up on spread of the 7 years, that I did in a couple of months of binge watching. Probably my favourite show of all time.
the new american horror story spin off 'american horror stories' is worth a watch - its a short stories type spin off that has the original atmosphere that the series is known for.
I am pleased to see the return of the delightfully outrageous Jerk to the iPlayer for an all-too-short second series.

I started watching Dr death... Very strange but strangely intriguing.. Only watched one but looking forward to two.

Just watched 2x8 episode series in less than a week. Really enjoyed it.
Up to episode 5 of Hit and Run on Netflix Not an entirely believable plot, but enjoyable and the guy out of Fauda is good

Superb series, easily top 5 for me with top-notch writing, acting, directing & set/costume design.
The best shows - like Mad Men, The Sopranos & The Wire - are eminently enjoyable on a surface level, but even more so when the deeper themes around the human condition are explored.
I’ve just nailed season 2 of “dark summer” on Netflix. Zombie apocalypse kinda thing (where the zombies are quick and relentless) but more focussed on what happens when iciest breaks down and it’s every man for him/herself. Clearly shot with a COVID crew and in a budget but well done and quite brutal in parts.
Started to watch Treadstone on Amazon.
Based on the “Bourne” world, too many different threads and flashbacks. Given up after 5 episodes…. Anybody persevered?
Season 2 of Ray Donovan. Getting better and excellent cast
