Thanks.

 

Unfortunately  just did 2 searches and it didn't have either.

 

Looking for "The Cockfields" - thanks to whoever mentioned it recently.

Hurawatch has the 1st 3 episodes of Season One only - the 1st 2 are very funny.

 

Also looking for "90 Day Fiance" - started catching this reality show on the local cable package and got hooked - Hurawatch only has Seasons 1/2/3/8.

Many on imdb despise this show which several accurately called "watching a train wreck" - part of the interest.

 

TVF posters may find it especially interesting as it's all cross cultural relationships plus some older/younger couples as well.

 

I would also like to recommend "Vikings" - Canadian/Irish co-production miniseries.

Thanks to Spidermike for mentioning it.

Was glad to find I disagree with most imdb posters who feel it's downhill after the 1st 3 seasons.

 

I watched all 6.

The 1st half of season 6 is awful - the worst male child actor of all time, and 1 of the female leads who's been very solid previously is not good although much is the script's fault.

 

But interesting once through that dreck.

 

Very solid series which kept my interest for I believe 96 45 - minute episodes.

 

Some excellent actors, costumes, facial tatoos and definitely haircuts (e.g., Harald and his brother in all of those categories).

 

Does anyone have other sites with free streaming libraries?

@JimmyJ I agree with you about the Vikings. I enjoyed all of the seasons.

That was a good series Bert---there are a lot that came out of Manchester --- I like Lesley Sharp (The Blond) she always seems to act like she has just taken a load of Valium. If you can get hold of it--- She done a series before that called "Afterlife"  it was outstanding , 2 series 14 episodes . IMDB gave it an 8 at the time----for once I agreed with them. Wont be easy to find.

Found on 1337x - 1 seeder but speed good - Afterlife 2005

That's it for season one. Only three episodes. Season two is out now, that has six episodes.

I'm happy you like it.

You're nothing if not predictable.

Makes me think why you bother watching at all TBH.

I'm pretty sure you know what you're going to get.

 

Maybe you should watch the series Roots.

You can watch it back to front so it has a happy ending for you.

I am as predictable as todays tv ,actually it is a good 3 parter,what i dont understand is why virtually every tv series these days has to tick the " woke" boxes why cant they just have ordinary people in them like 99% of the population are?

I have been a Countdown fan from the start with Richard Whitely & Carol. Thought Des O'Connor was brilliant, Rachel was gorgeous, Nick Hewer was so dry & witty.

BUT NOW...Anne Robinson, what an old bat. And Rachel has lost her charms a bit. Only Susie Dent worth watching now. 

So I don't.

You will find it under The Morning Show

Thanks Will27----nothing like a name change to throw you off....

So apparently they changed the name in Oz to give it more appeal...................Oh well , it doesn't look like the sort I usually watch....I'll give it an episode or 3

 

Thanks again

Another one for you .. South Side, I just noticed S02 just started - I don't know why I watch Brooklyn nine-nine, I stopped smoking years ago, total <deleted>, but I never miss an episode.

Thanks for that. I've DL'd the first season and the available first 3 episodes of season 2. Next time I take a puff I'll give it a go. With Brooklyn nine-nine and schitz creek both finished, this one will fill the void.

Mayor of Kingstown-----10 episodes

 

Just released-- I haven't seen it yet, so someone can tell me how bad it is---

-- Created by same people who do "YellowStone" 

Trivia --Kingston, Ontario, is known for having multiple jails in and around the city.

 

 

"The McLusky family are power brokers tackling themes of systemic racism, corruption and inequality in Kingstown, Michigan--where the business of incarceration is the only thriving industry."

Hidden Assets--- Just watched the second episode of this Crime thriller---- Its a good watch. well acted/ good plot IMO.

 

Starts with Raid by the Irish C.A.B. (Criminal Assets Bureau)  A feared dept that can strip you of all the assets obtained through crime .

 

7 episodes but-only 1 a week.

I just watched episode 1, which was OK, but what was strange was that it showed a flashback from a previous episode. Not sure how this was possible if this was episode 1.

The shrink next door 

 

Starring Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd should be fun , although going by the trailer maybe not so much, gets a 6.8 on IMDb.

Maybe not the usual humour we have come to expect from these two, looks more like a Woody Allen type of humour, I’ll give it a go.

 


Available on Apple TV , also fmovies.

Tried it, but gave it away after 15 minutes. Not really that funny.
