And now finished Silo. A great TV show with surely more to come (based on the books by Hugh Howey there should be enough material). Loved it 9/10 

Finished Series 2 of From recently. A good first series, but a drab second one. No answers whatsoever, just more questions and mystery. The acting is half decent at least. 6/10

Our Planet. David Attenborough.

Season 6 of Black Mirror. Some if it was good (Joan is Awful, Beyond the Sea) but on the whole a bit hit and miss. Two of the episodes didn't even feel like typical Black Mirror (Loch Henry, Mazey Day). Still it's better then much of the dross on TV these days. 7.5/10

Oh well, on to the next series. I thought they had decided that was it for Succession. I'm still undecided on watching beyond episode 4 because I feel it ended about there anyway

I did finally finish The Rain some time ago, took me a while to get hooked (not as much as Dark, which I finished not long before that -- such a great series). Before that I finished The Sinner (all seasons). Lots of more limited run series. I di enjoy Post Mortem: No One Dies in Skarnes some time back (might have mentioned it already). I really liked from Germany, Kleo. I loved the last season of Westworld (mentioned already) but still want more and doesn't look like it will happen.

Frustrating, especially given that she is actually English. Is the director putting her up to it I wonder?! I tried hard to get past this put had to give up in the end. Funny that I subscribed to Paramount to get this show and then end up watching other great shows such as Mayor Of Kingstown and Tulsa King instead

That annoys me a bit too. I watched again an episode of Strange New Worlds yesterday. For me it has not appealed nearly so much as Picard, and it looks like Seven of Nine might be hosting the show, and she is just a powerhouse. Love her more now than in Voyager, as I was actually upset when they removed Kes. I would have rather seen Neelix, who annoyed me (and the relationship with Kes felt uncomfortable, paedophiliac and obsessive), go, or the wooden Ensign Kim.

Der Greif (The Gryphon) - TV Series - 2023 - Season 1 - 6 Episodes:

Immersive and impressive, if not a wholly standout series.
