What's good on streaming services...

Couldn't see a suitable thread...

The Expanse on amazon prime.  Anyone watching?  I'm on season 3, atm, and really enjoying it - in fact I'm struggling to think of a better Sci fi series, I've seen.  Gripping, well produced, and storyline is
engaging.

Really enjoyed the first 2 seasons but didn’t realise the third had been released. Thanks for the heads up.

The Expanse is a sore point with Netflix subscribers. They ran the first two seasons then abandoned it.

This ^^^^^^^^^^ grrrrrr,

Ah yes, I'd forgotten it had been on Netflix.  edit. We tend to be on prime sporadically, paying the monthly fee, for a few months at a time.

That was where I saw it and obviously when they dropped it I didn’t get a reminder about the new season.

Ah, we stumbled across season 3 last night after renting a movie (which is mostly what we use Amazon for), and I was saying to my wife, wasn't this on Netflix? I put it down to confusion. So it was on Netflix. I feel vindicated.

I have enjoyed Professor T ,13 Commandments, Rough Justice (all Belgian crime, though Prof T is 'odd') on Walter Presents (All 4).
Also watching The River (Norway), which is nonsense. I reckon the hidden story is about special sausages....

We've enjoyed Brokenwood on "Drama" tv. I guess the nearest equivalent would be a Kiwi version of Midsomer Murders (not that I've ever seen Midsomer Murders...)

I quite enjoyed Travelers recently on Netflix, if you like time travel shenanigans. Amazon Prime (or it might be Netflix) has Agents of SHIELD, which has been consistently good. Netflix has a slew of Marvel superheroes, which while aren't bad, always seem a bit laboured and the humour in the movies is often missing (I've never understood Iron Fist, he's a martial arts superhero who is, quite frankly, awful at fighting, he's always getting his ass handed to him). I think everyone has seen Stranger Things, which is part mystery, part nostalgia trip. I think Grimm is on one of them, that's good too if you like supernatural stuff with a ludicrous premise but done very well.

The good thing is that you treat everything like a pilot, and bail after one or two episodes if it's not your thing.

A bit League of Gentlemen then?

We've started making our way through Royale Family on Netflix. #oldschool

Those sausages, yes.

I notice Homeland season 7 has appeared on Netflix.  For some reason, I ignored Homeland for several years before starting - season 6 was good.
