I think I skipped it cause of the subtitles. But normally my sister's taste is trustworthy.Well so did a lovely British man. However, I've seen 2 episodes and I keep looking at the clock all the time!
I have So Many tv shows and movies that I have started and not finished. Some for good reasons and some just because there are so many other things to watch.
It used to be that I almost never didn't finish stuff
I’m in a tv lull, not knowing what to watch next. I find it hard to get into new stuff and end up rewatching old series. Right now nothing interests me. 
So instead of watching tv I’m listening to audio books for hours on end. In a way it’s good because it keeps me moving as I can’t just sit there listening and doing nothing lol.

I just re-listened to an audio book series. I've actually read and listened to this series before. but I like it a lot. Plus, when I'm listening in bed, if I fall asleep its not so important to find my place the next morning.I’m in a tv lull, not knowing what to watch next.

BTW, This is the Sharing Knife Series by Lois McMaster Bujold. If you haven't read or listened to it - you can - for free - on Hoopla.
Oh yes. I just finished the seventh one and thought it didn't seem like a proper ending so I googled. I like this series. I think it is the first one that I have ever sat and watched intently.

I started watching another Hulu limited series called "Dopesick". It stars Michael Keaton and is the story of OxyContin. It is really good and while is fiction tells the true story of how this drug came to be and the consequences. It is a story close to my heart as I lost my son to Oxy. I have watched the first few episodes and it is now starting to get into the really disturbing addiction stories. Recommended if you get Hulu.

Finished "Dopesick" and while it had me in tears, it was a most amazing series! Big Pharma is indeed evil! It took years to take down Purdue and just happened within the last few years. This company and evil family had been doing this sh*t since the 60's! Great acting! My only complaint is the way they kept jumping back and forth in time. It was kind of confusing and you had to pay close attention.

Another good audio book series by the same author and also available on Hoopla for free is
World Of The Five Gods: Penric & Desdemona
They only have the first five right now. They are all short. Novellas not novels.

Adorkable rockstar!
We have been watching the new Star Trek also and enjoying it very much.
Didn't like the new season of Ms Marvel don't think we even made it through the first episode.
Made it to about episode 4 or 5 of Stranger Things so far.

I just ordered some stuff on Amazon and that show came up recommended for me to watch.
I watched Netflix's The Stranger. Some very good acting and quite a good screen play. However it
was far fetched and not really believable at times.

Oh yes. I started watching that ages ago but couldn't really get into it. I have read most of his books, though.
