I watched it for the first 2/3 seasons. It was alright. My sister is on the 5/6 season now and it doesn’t look good to me. 

I’d personally recommend Big Little Lies, Chernobyl, Stranger Things, Lost In Space (the Netflix remake), Good Doctor, or Veep

Just finished Chernobyl yesterday and it is an amazing show in my opinion, although it makes no sense to compare it to Breaking Bad, The Wire or The Sopranos.

In case you didn't know it: There is also a free podcast available on Youtube with a lot of background information (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUeHPCYtWYQ)

Also watched the first season or so of Stranger Things, but i am not a big fan.

I would recommend trying Stranger Things season 2 because there is a lot less character and world building. The plot is much better in my opinion.

Finally watched the last episode of the Big Bang Theory with czech dabing in czech TV :) Now when it´s over, seriously I have a feeling like I lost something..after so many years I followed it again and again, I can not believe that it´s really over.

 

but with that sequence of Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, my second fav show when I was a young boy, just couldn´t be a better way to finish the whole show for me  :d

Is anyone else watching Big Little Lies on HBO? It has amazing writing, editing, and music selection. It’s so, so good.

I like it, but the last few episodes have been kinda messy, unfortunately. But I still feel this is worthy watching for its entertainment value.

Today Andrea Camilleri dies at the age of 93. He was the one who created the Montalbano series and actively took part to the making of a tv series inspired by his books. 

 

Although he he was an aged man, I believe he will be missed a lot from a large part of Italian people

    • poir Madsen had a very unlucky debut at the CWC he seriously injured himself (dislocated shoulder and possible concussion) in an attempt to save a boundary in the very early stages of Today' match vs Scotland   moreover, Italy lost badly against the Scots, allowing them to score 207 runs in the 1st innings (it took 14 overs to get the 1st wicket) and going well short chasing that score (we immediately saw that today wasn't the day when our lead batsman went out at the very 1st ball thanks to an amazing but improbable catch by a Scottish fielder)   in all this, a couple of highlights to be recorded: Hasan Ali with a very efficient bowling performance (5.25 economy, 1 wicket) and Harry Manenti with good 52 runs in just over 30 balls with the bat
    • The Italian team has already achieved a better result than the Chinese team in 2022 at home. The Italian team has made enormous progress since 2023, when we were still losing to Korea and Poland. Of course, this is mainly due to naturalizations, but China did the same. It's one of the few sports that have made significant progress before these Olympics and this is how it should be in most disciplines at home games.
