That's good to hear! Surprising, but good! (Still have to watch the "spares".)

I didn't quite realize that we are watching all the same broadcast shows. Well, I also watch Elementary, but otherwise your watchlist is my watchlist, currently. I am at different places in watching, though, still on S2 of The Expanse and not caught up with Legion, so I avoid possible spoilers. MiAmor has completely given up on Legion, as being not taut enough, but it's plenty twisty and beautiful (with great music) to suit me. Planning to try Dietland, next.

I've really enjoyed the following streaming shows: Sense8 (of course, but haven't started the finale), Mozart in the Jungle, GLOW, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Good Girls Revolt. All pass the Bechdel Test with flying colors rocket beyond it. Also liked Stranger Things, no surprise. May try Pose, but we'll see.

I've stalled on The Get Down, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and Dear White People, though I quite liked what I've seen. I generally only get to the TV one or two evenings a week, so I'm ( ... )

The spares are not great. One is okay, but I'm rather hoping the other will be declared apocryphal.

Nooo! He mustn't do that! It's so brilliant. A work of art, IMO. Maybe you could tempt him back?

I also love Mozart in the Jungle (though I've yet to see the final season) and The Marvellous Mrs Maisel. That was so, so good. I can see why it won an Emmy.

I generally only get to the TV one or two evenings a week, so I'm soooo behind.

This is my problem too. I've only watched one episode of season 3 of The Expanse so far. Partly because I've had no time and partly because I really need to watch it with subtitles. So I'm in limbo really. Will the third series still air on Netflix in Europe or will it be Amazon only? It's so confusing!

oh, lovely! I am very happy for you!

Thank you. I'm pretty happy for me too. :)

Still hoping to find time to start a The Americans rewatch, btw.

I'm pleased for you.

Thank you, Maz. I'm pleased for me too. :)

Congratulations! I'm so pleased for you. :D

And yeah, dumping more of the police stuff wouldn't go amiss imo.

Yeah, it's great. I'm really surprised, have to say. I didn't think it had much chance. However, since I wrote this post, I've learned that both Amazon and Netflix were in the running, apparently, which is great.

dumping more of the police stuff wouldn't go amiss imo.

It wouldn't, though if Netflix are happy to stick with the current formula I guess I'll put up with it. I have done for two years, after all, and I still love the stupid show to bits.

smallPlanning to watch the last episode of Legion tonight, btw, after which I'll read your post about it
