Hmmm but what a rear. 
I really enjoyed S1 of Ted Lasso. Itâs purple but also genius at highlighting the cultural stupidity of the idea of the show.
S2 goes different down a surreal rabbit hole just at the edge of our consciousness bordering on stupidity but always coming across as almost pathos.
Utterly stupid
Totally lovable genius.
You can laugh and cry in the same scene.
Very cleverly wrong
Late to the party with âSuccessionâ on Sky but enjoying it so far, created by Jesse Armstrong who was a key player in âThe Thick of Itâ and âPeep Showâ. He seems to have a real talent for writing characters who are willing to fuck over the people they care about.

David Tennant is very droll

Ep7 takes on a lot of stuff but mainly Suelka Braveminge.
It is so NOT risible.
Wow
Possibly not the right thread but if, like me, you were brought up on stories of WW2 heroics, Action Man, Airfix and Fray Bentos (
) then this podcast is like a massive episode of QI and all the âfactsâ that underpin your very existence are debunked and tossed in the bin.
Apologise if this has been done already but Iâm always a bit late to the party.
Iâm totally hooked on Clarksonâs FarmâŚon Season 2 at the moment. Gerald is my favourite.

For the live of God. DONâT WATCH CITADEL on Prime!
Itâs a trap!
FFS a zillion $ budget for the Russo brothers to create a Jason Bourne/James Bond TV series.
Itâs like something shiny to Magpie.
1st scene. Youâll be lost in a world of high octane nonsense
Nobody (Netflix)
Bob Odenkirk - mild mannered BCS character shoehorned into a full-on action movie. Plenty of guns and blam.
Christopher Lloyd makes a good cameo.
Surprisingly very enjoyable

After Ep4 The Night Agent becomes good. As in old fashioned White House Conspiracy good.
Not great but good (Netflix)
Finished.
Look itâs a Thriller Soap Opera. Entertaining drivel with great IMDB ratings and renewed for a 2nd season.
Equally just dropped on Netflix is another White House level Thriller, The Diplomat
Renewed for S2 minutes after it dropped.
This is next level Politics shit. Slow for sure but it starts with a Brit Carrier being blown up " by Iran" in the Gulf and plays out at Ambassador/PM/President level.
This is clearly written by someone who knows " the White House" game, but also the Middle East
Finally something a bit more cerebral to watch
Going out on a limb here, but The Diplomat ((Netflix) is superb
No action just White House/Downing Street games.
A career Diplomat married to a disgraced but legendary Ambassador is set to become US Ambassador to Kabul but gets sent to London.
Just as our new Carrier gets blown up in the Gulf.
Britain to go to war withâŚ
Very clever political drama involving Iran, Russia post Ukraine invasion, Brexit and more.
Hooked binged in 3 days

My favourite episode of Ripping Yarns is on BBC4 tonight at 10-30. Gordon Ottershore, the loyal supporter of Barnstoneworth United, a team that hasnât won a match for three years. Truly wonderful, although itâs starting to get a bit too close to home.

Just started The Diplomat. Sharp and subtlety witty too. No surprise one of the West Wing Writers is behind it
