    I have been watching a series called Wild Wild Country on Netflix. It is about the workings of a kind of free love/libertarian cult and shows the conflict between them and a large amount of 1980s American society.

    The series has been put together exceptionally well with no indication of what is yet to come in the following episodes. This makes for some absolutely shocking viewing at times and your opinions regarding some of the people featured will end up changing as you watch more episodes. It is all fascinating if you’re like me and knew very little about this cult and their influence.

    I would recommend giving this a watch!

    Finally got round to watching the Sopranos, and think it is honestly one of the best things I have ever seen.

    Just finished watching the final episode. Wow, very powerful drama. Sometimes final episodes of series can be a bit of a let down, not this series, the final episode was stunning

    Just finished watching 'When They See Us' on Netflix. Based on the true story of 5 black teenagers from Harlem wrongly convicted of raping and brutal beating of a woman in Central Park. Compelling drama. brilliantly acted by the 5 totally different characters involved

    Just started watching Series 1 of Boardwalk Empire for the first time. Done the first 4 episodes and really enjoying it. Steve Buscemi at his brilliant best.
    Look forward to seeing it pan out.

    Loved Killing Eve. Very quirky, but entertaining. Couldn't help falling in love with Jodie Comer watching it!

    After a few attempts at trying to get passed the first episode of the 1st series of The Wire, I had another attempt this week, as everyone who has watched it, tells me its the best TV series ever. I did the first three episodes back to back, and I think I will now stick with it, and see what all the fuss is about

    Yeah, seen it and researched it on the net, fascinating experiment in mass brainwashing and sexual debauchery freedom.

    I've been watching Marseille on Netflix. Political thriller with Gérard Depardieu. Decent.
