What tv show are you currently binging?

Ripples on Netflix. Eight increasingly intriguing episodes about how small situations change the direction of peoples' lives. Three episodes in now, but savoring it.
Agatha Christie's Seven Dials on Netflix.
Murder mystery that leaves all three Knives Out mysteries in the dust. Bingeable, as it is slightly under 3 hours total for 3 episodes, but we chose to watch it over 3 nights.

Worked my way through Star Trek: Enterprise on Paramount+, and I found it to be much better than most reviewers described it. I went on with several Treks in chronological plot order (not production order) and have enjoyed each one, especially Strange New Worlds.

Rewatching the original Law and Order on Hulu, I watch two or three per week.
Discovered that The Closer is on Netflix, so I watched S1 Ep1 today.
Definitely interested in a first rewatch of West Wing, but I don't want too many things going at once. I want time to read books, listen to music, play my musical instruments, and enjoy retirement with my wife of 53 years.

We are 3/4 of the way through Pluribus , we're having fun picking out all the spots here on the west side of ABQ where they filmed it. "Carols" house is a mile southwest, the hospital (actually Central New Mexico Community College- CNM West) is 1/2 mile north.

"Derry Girls" on Netflix. Laugh-out-loud funny comedy about high-school girls in Northern Ireland in the 1990s. You will need the captions; the accents are a foot thick! Sister Michael, principal of the girls' school, is especially good.

Truly a great show.
 
Just finished “Death Note” anime. Will likely start “Psycho Pass” based on recommendation from a coworker since we are snowed in!
 
We watched the 2 initial episode of ST: Starfleet Academy couple weeks back when it first aired.
Started to watch episode 3 last night and Emma and after giving it 15 mins or so we agreed it's dreck
and switched away to another channel. What a waste.

Emma wonders if the writers have any real background in Star Trek lore - it seems more like ST: Discovery
and that silly fungus drive than it does the much superior ST: Strange New Worlds (tales of Christopher Pike).

FWIW, I grew up with Kirk and ST: The Original Series. The Next Generation was ok (too much Holodeck stories).
Didn't like Voyager after the 2nd season when the Cap'n Janeway lost the ship.
Big fan of Deep Space Nine. Didn't care for ST: Enterprise (streamed most of it after the fact via Prime).
Your mileage may vary ... what can I say? ;)
 
Only watched the free episode on YouTube of Starfleet Academy, but if anything like Discovery I'll not bother, did not like Discovery.

I loved Next Generation, Voyager, Enterprise (should have been longer), Deep Space Nine (Had a lot of characters and development of them, loved the relationship between Garak and the Bashir) and Strange New Worlds. Even though I liked the original back then, now i can't stand it, Kirk annoys me.

Just started with Derry Girls, pretty good.

As my mother was from Dublin I thought I could do without the subs, but had to turn them on as I was missing bits.
 
'Hunters' on Netflix.... came into my suggestions after binging The Devil Next Door (docu). looks like there's ~20 episodes over 2 seasons, am halfway through S1. somehow, i love the opening credit scene on the chessboard. the only spoiler i'll entertain.... does Lena Olin get naked?

seems everything i've watched in the last couple months has been set in the latter 20th century.... you can't call 911; tv dinners, not takeout; newspapers, rotary phones, .... i'm marinating in the vintage.
 
I watched a two hour show on YouTube last night after my wife told me about it. It is called " Listers", about a couple funny guys travelling the US compiling a list of all of the birds they can ID. The people and dialog are more entertaining than you would think. Good way to pass the stuck inside time.
 
Alternating these 3, choosing the next episode to watch from one of the 3 each day:
Law and Order
The West Wing
The Closer


In just a few days, Netflix should kick in the next season of Daredevil, which should be an enjoyable watch, say, one per week.

Death in Paradise - typical fish out of water show about a British Chief Inspector assigned to the Carribean Isle of San Marti - where a surprising number of murders occur.
Its a bit formula but the teamwork is nice, and the scenery (and sunsets) can be gorgeous.

The first Chief inspector died in Season 3 and a new one was assigned. We fell over an episode on the local PBS station in early Dec, and found they are run on Cable channel Ovation TV (I think a BBC spinoff). It seems to get played in a different order on weekends than weekdays, so I have the DVR set to grab whatever goes by, and once we had a few dozen episodes saved, we started watching in order.
We're currently at S06 Ep 06 (8 eps a season) - and have eps saved through Season 14.

Been a fan of Daredevil: Born Again but currently have Netflix off for a bit - let us know how it goes! (I thought it went to Disney+?) Season 2 - Mar 24th?
 
Just finished season 1 of a drama/killer TV series "CARDINAL" (NETFLIX 2017-20).

A Canadian offering that takes place in northern Ontario mall town, dealing with locals being killed.

Plot's really slow, with a fair bit of character development. Almost a "homey" feel to the production.

There's some squeamish moments, but for the most part this series keeps you guessing, without the Hollywood polish.

About halfway thru Perry Mason on Prime. I think it was on AMC because when I cancelled it, Perry Mason disappeared and showed up on Paramount so I had to subscribe to that. Now, most of Season 5 and Season 6 are "unavailable". :mad:
