Watching The Mandalorian on Disney. My kids are into the Star Wars franchise. We've seen the recent Disney series': Mandalorian, Boba Fett, Cassian Andor. They were all good/entertaining. Season 3 of Mando has resumed, and the first 2 episodes have been great. Plus, one of the actors who plays Mando was one of my kids' soccer coach.

On episode 8. I do not think I have ever seen so much violence in one series.

Mrs. Noah and I have also watched a few episodes of Will Trent. I got suckered in by his 911 in the promos. Show is OK. Some clever bits to keep it entertaining. But it's losing a bit of its luster for us. I think The Mentalist from several years ago was similar, but better.

"Poker face" (peacock? I get that for IMSA and Indycar, $4.99) is surprisingly good..

The actors are really very good - Particularly when you get to the retirement home episode. I like how it's filmed, after the pilot that sets up the story, you see a murder first and then it kinda starts the story over from the main character's perspective and you see the story differently. It's refreshing and entertaining.

Yeah,
Was scrolling through new additions on Netflix and was surprised at all of the shows and movies from the global market. Many with subtitles….

And I can’t access a car show on the Canadian History channel because of some region deal. Even online because they can tell I’m from the US by my IP address. Local channels only offered a couple of seasons, just enough to set the hook.

Just watched the first (and only so far) season of The Night Agent on Netflix. Outstanding- it's got kind of a Jack Ryan quality to it.

I just finished season one of The Rig. A bit of a weird SF tale of a off shore oil drilling platform off the cost of Scotland. It was just enough to keep me watching. Obvious setup for season two on the last episode.

On a 1 to 10 scale I would give it a 5.5 to 6.

Another big thumbs up for "Night Agent". Binged all episodes over a 2 day period.

And FWIW......there's a certain someone who I knew all along was corrupt!

JJust started Night Agent. Great so far. Intense. Reminds me of Condor.

I have enjoyed watching the British show, Line of Duty. It is about the AC-12 crew which is the anti corruption unit that investigates bent coppers, which are crooked cops in American.

It seems very realistic, but what do I really know about. Their equivalent of our Miranda warning is rather weird to my American ears.

“You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defense if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.”

Anyway it is a good show.

Never heard of it, but it’s on Prime. Started in 2012. Watched S1E1 and it was very good- lots going on. Looking forward to more.

The Netflix documentary about Flight MH 370 really leaves you wondering what happened to a Boeing 777 with 239 people.

I finished season 1, which only has 5 hour long episodes (they feel like 90 minutes). It gets better and better through the season and very intense. Thumbs up!

I watched that....so many questions.
I wonder if there will ever be a definite answer.

Sometimes when I'm channel surfing and can't find anything of interest I'll end up on "Family Feud".

Steve Harvey is freaking hilarious and is what makes that show so entertaining!

His expressions after some lame guess cracks me up!

And there are some really lame guesses too!
