Finished Three Body Problem the other night.  Very enjoyable.

Currently watching Ripley... It's a slow burn, but beautifully shot and acted.

Harlen Coben limited series on Netflix.  There are 8 of them. 
The younger daughter got the wife and I into them and we have been watching since the daughter arrived home at the end of the semester.  Every character has a secret.

As a fan of his novels, I've been mostly disappointed with the adaptations.
And when will Myron and Win get the long overdue screen treatment?

My wife and I are blazing through "Fool Me Once" and enjoying it.

Fool Me Once was good.
Richard Armitage is in 3 of the series.

I made it through 3 episodes but felt the same way.

Just finished two other series.

Baby Reindeer was troubling, a very difficult watch but compelling and well done.

Bodkin started very slowly but finished strong.

I’d recommend both.

Just finished Baby Reindeer. It was fantastic. Extremely unsettling and uncomfortable to watch but in a very compelling way. As someone who works with both stalkees and stalkers on regular basis I think they did a very good job at demonstrating some of the nuances, thought processes, and pitfalls that both sides fall into.

We recently watched two Hulu series.

Under The Bridge was good, got better as the series progressed. Lily Gladstone was excellent, Riley Keough very good as the other lead, and several of the kids were believable.

The Veil was OK. Decent action and/or suspense in several episodes, but lots of unbelievable plot twists and a final episode that should have been thrilling but was instead a bit boring because it was at least 15 minutes too long. Far too many long silences, furtive glances and the like for effect.

TAMU - thanks for the Baby Reindeer review. I've heard nothing but great things about it, and it's on our list to watch soon.

Needed something light to binge in between all the excellent but heavy offerings on Apple+ and Netflix and such. 

My wife hadn’t seen What We Do in the Shadows so I decided to rewatch it.  I forgot how absolutely hysterical this show is.  Every episode has at least one audible laugh moment. Whether physical humor or off the wall references, it’s just so good. Matt Berry is also a treasure

Thank you - very light but very funny....

Yup very good show. Won’t be rewatching probably ever. But very good.

Would love to see him do more work in movies and tv going forward
