Most entertaining show I've seen for a long time with plenty of dark humour and gore.

That's where I watched it, get it free for a month so I'm hitting it hard ATM, originally only got it for the Spurs doco which was awesome. There's a heap of other great similar sports docos too.

As an avid watcher of London crime shows, it's OK. A lot of it is just not believable.

It's better than nothing but there are better

Been watching "The Servant" - not a bad series, seems to go no where but still throws out some nice curveballs and keeps me on the edge wanting to know what's coming next.

Finally got around to finishing the most recent season of Wentworth. One of the weaker seasons imho, although still interesting enough to follow right through. Thank God for Lou Kelly, one of the best characters the show's had.

I'm not sure, I'm pretty stupid with things like that, @Dutchy sorted me out last season but the missus accidentally deleted the last episode before I could get to watch it.

Vikings (for those still watching it) Season 6 Part 2 is now out, all 10 episodes have been released together. I plan to binge on it and hopefully finish it over the weekend.

I haven't posted about it previously but has anyone on here watched the Mandalorian? Assuming other Star Wars fans have watched it? Season 2 was incredible!

Anyone who liked the x files should watch Kolchak : The Night Stalker on SBS Viceland on Monday Night. I loved the show growing up in the 70s and is a favourite of Chris Carter. Each episode is a different creature and Darren McGavin is brilliant as a reporter investigating each case and constantly getting in trouble with his boss and the police department.

Just watched the Tiger doco, even for someone like myself who has followed him very closely I learnt quite a few new things and appreciate the machine like way he was brought up to play golf and be successful.

The 2018 Master victory is covered magnificently and still gives me chills.

My take from it all is that he is probably the happiest he has ever been right now.

Watching the ESPN 30 for 30 two part series on Lance Armstrong.

Currently got through part 1.

Have seen a few different documentaries featuring Lance but this has been the best so far. Filmed last year it is more of a reflective piece with candid interviews with Lance and former teammates as he is since the event. Like him or not Lance is extremely honest (something funnily he wasn't during his career) and it provides an incredible, astonishing, uncomfortable insight. At times you feel like this bloke was a genius, at other times a physcopath and then even elements that make you feel he is suffering from substance abuse at present.

He revelated a few new elements (at the time of filming) which enough to keep the interest and stop the story from yawning.

Definitely worth a look if the Lance story interests you.
