I tried to watch Foundation S1 when it came out, but struggled with the slow pace - did anyone persevere with S1 and S2 and was it worth it?
I watched S2 recently and found it better than S1. Sure some episodes are better than others, but there is a big reveal which will make S3 more interesting.

@MN5 let's just say head office is in Germany.
I’ll get in trouble again if I comment any further.
So yeah back on topic, Dept Q was a good show.
Just Finished it. It was very good, looking forward to season two.
Try The Day of the Jackal with Eddie Redmayne, best thing he's done.
Also absolitely love Slow Horses and recomend it
along with The Lazarus Project. Was gutted they canceled season three.
Best bit when they have a beer with themselves "What do you mean I died" and meet your Daughter....
For something a bit different try Disney's Hellstrom. -

OK, I’ve watched ep1 of DeptQ and whilst I’ve not found it completely gripping, it is very watchable. The one thing that grips me is the totally dysfunctional police force. There’s no one in uniform and they are all weirdos. The whole station is just… unworkable.
Will persevere though as I’m looking for entertainment, not realism.
It is the Scotish Police, Not as bad as Irish police ("The Guard" springs to mind) but still probably not the britest force around.

The Lazarus Project
Ah damn, didnt realise they had canned that!! Really enjoyed it, even if the final ep of S2 started gettign confusing with multiple versions of themselves in the same timeline....
I like Tom Burke, who's also good in CB Strike.

I thought it started going downhill in S2 , dunno just all felt a bit off the cuff and insincere. S1 was great, but not that fussed about it being canned.

Tried "The Capture". Third season is apparently on the cards.
Has Holliday Grainger from "CB Strike."
Whole family is into "CB Strike." even the books.
Liked the British "Bodyguard" and the fact that it got banned in some American States because they though he had sex with his Mum... Scotish Mamm -
@Mainlander oh I don't think I even knew there was a 2nd season of The Capture...might find it.
Started Murderbot, 30 min eps, sci-fi comedy that is a decent watch so far, Alexander Skarsgård plays a security bot who has managed o hack his system to alow him the freedom to do what he wants
-
@taniwharugby liking murderbot but waiting for a week for that 22 minute hit makes it not feel that good.

S4 of The Bear dropped today - 10 Episodes, no drip-feeding. And I board a 24hr flight tmrw avo.
Happy days. Even if S3 kinda sucked.
Nice, I have Disney for four months for $5.
Aside from the first ep (the one that was just a montage) I think I quite liked S3.

Me either, bummer, that was a good show.

You liked S3? I feel like nothing really happened. And I really didn’t need an entire episode on Tina’s backstory

Disney... Try Hellstrom, Different, I liked it but not for everybody, has a different approch to demon exorsisim. could have been filmed in black and white, not big on colour except red blood.
Im part way through the new Daredevil. Again I like it, I liked the 3 previous Sony ones as well along with there companion Punisher and Jessica Jones ones. David Tennet is an increditable villian.
As for The Lazarus Project. was so pissed it got canceled, series #1 was pritty much stand alone but #2 had some interesting hints about what was planned in #3... sad no more.
Started Murderbot last night, jurries still out, hard to judge on one episode.
Showes to avoid... Legion (watch 2 season still no idea what it's about
Eternals
The Marvels
Secret Invasion
Echo
Madame Web -
Agree with everything you say there except Legion.
Legion was great. Highly rated on several ratings platforms. Doesn't deserve to be lumped together with those other ones you have there.

Echo
Madame WebI've seen all of those bar Echo, my Marvel tolerance is pretty high (balanced out by intolerance for Snyderverse comic book and TBF non comic book movies). Secret Invasion is the worst of that lot based on it's potential.
I'm currently watching We Were the Lucky Ones, I don't know what possessed me to watch an 8 episode holocaust drama. It's a decent show but not a pleasant watch.
TBH Hellstorm doesn't look like my kind of show.
Also, there doesn't seem to be that many standout new dramas on Disney at the moment.
I'm about 3 episodes in on Murderbot but paused because I ran out of episodes and then forgot about.

Recapped the last episode of Series 3 - a series I really enjoyed - and watched the first three episodes of Series 4 of The Bear
Loving it

I binged eight episodes over the last week and while it's different to what I thought it would be, I'm enjoying it.
