I just finished this Netflix sci-fi series & it was right up my alley. Cerebral space/aliens type stuff with plenty of twists & turns. I think you'll really dig this one Ben. I believe the second series is currently being filmed for a mid-2026 release too so I'm looking forward to that.

Quoted Daniel

If you enjoyed the TV series I would heartily recommend the three books upon which it is based. The series was good, but the novels are better.

I am not into my TV nowadays.  You’re more likely to find me watching restoration projects on YouTube (Rexstorer being a personal favourite right now) or reading a book.  Sort of did the Netflix/Prime/Disney+ thing to death for a few years.  Mobland with Tom Hardy, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan was the last thing I watched and it was superb.  More of that and The Gentlemen and I would watch those.

I watch very few TV series outside of scandi-noir crime shows like The Killing, The Bridge, Wallander and Beck, or "historical" stuff like Vikings and The Last Kingdom, but we recently started watching Stranger Things and really got into it. We are now waiting expectantly for the final series which I believe is due in November.

My wife watches many more series than I do (I tend to sit with my laptop and headphones on listening to music and typing the shit I subject you all to on here while she watches them) and she has been singing the praises of The Handmaids Tale after watching it recently.

Dario Argento marathon for the time being, while working on the second part of my Wings of Nialoca series and speedreading The Stand at roughly 200 pages a day, on top of one shorter novella to help with the speedreading challenge I've been slacking off on.  Once I'm done with Argento, I think I'll move onto Lars Von Trier.
