I will be settling down to start the new series of Sabrina on Netflix this evening.
Reading the Nightshade Forensic series on Kindle at the moment (FBI meets werewolves & psychics).
Very much enjoyed an HBO series called Evil in the last couple of months, love the writers (Good Wife/Good Fight) .0 -

Finshed Sabrina Series 4, wasn't blown away by it, it felt very rushed. Next on the agenda is catching up on Star Trek Discovery as missed a few weeks and I am re-watching Angel in the background whilst I am working.0 -
I'm working through Evil at the moment, we've just started on Prodigal Son too.0

Great series, I can't wait for the next season! Not heard of Prodigal Son, what's that?0 -
It has Michael Sheen as a serial killer who is in prison and his son who is a profiler for NYPD, he solves crimes using his fathers "expertise" we've only watched the first 3 or 4 but it's looking good so far and they've commissioned a second series.1

Sounds interesting, might have to take a look into that.0 -

I am sure Inhumans was on my To Watch list at some point, I don't know how I haven't cleared more off it during 3/4 lockdowns mostly working from home (oh wait I did re-watch most of Buffy and start watching Angel again, maybe that's why )
Binged through the 3rd season of Cobra Kai weeknights this week (spin off from Karate Kid) it's not fantastic but it's likeable and I'm an 80's kid so love the music and the drama.0 -
We like Cobra Kai too but not caught the new series yet.
Husband is a big Dexter fan so I'm now being force fed that ahead if the new run.1 -
@tinkerbellang83 most of my binge watching is done at work. Covid has caused my work load to drop drastically (security access control). I thought about creating a watchlist spreadsheet cause there's so much I want watch (or need to finish watching). Like Supernatural, I need to finish but I can't bring myself to believe it's finally overπ
My fiance was really into Cobra Kai, the parts I watched I just couldn't really get into.
@Jackie9003 I LOVE Dexter!!0 -

I hadn't realised Dexter was coming back, I binge watched all of it in about 2 weeks whilst working on a ship, didn't have much else to do and we all had various tv series on hard drives back then and used to swap.
@_wild_phoenix_ I used to watch Supernatural when it first came out (whooo Jensen Ackles) but that was when it was on regular TV, then I binge watched about 9 seasons and I think it was a bit overkill, it's one of those that I will probably go back to at some point. I mean lets be honest last year's impact is probably going to slow down releases this year because of production stopping so I might actually get to catch up on things #SilverLinings0 -
I fell out of love with Supernatural when the angels started appearing, it's on my radar to go back to though.
Dexter is late this year for 10 episopes, denofgeek website is a good resource if you aren't aware of it.1 -
Sadly, in nerdville alone. Iβm reading a historical nonfiction, to prepare for an online class Iβd like to take. But: I did watch SOUL last night and loved it!0
-
Thanks @Jackie9003 I've used denofgeek for updates on series before but normally just look for stuff that's recently finished, probably safer I don't actively look for more stuff to sit on the sofa watching lol1

I miss Fringe.. wish they had a 100 seasons. Right now I've started watching The Gift. It's a Turkish fantasy/sci-fi? show. pretty decent. I really liked Castlevania and The Dragon Prince and just finished watching Blood of Zeus.
Also just finished reading the Court of Thorns and Roses series of books. Loved them!0 -
I'm a little embarrassed to admit it but I also watched Bridgerton in about the space of a day last week (and downloaded the next book in the series which I am already 2/3 through on my kindle.) π€ don't tell anyone!0
-
I love Fringe, we have the box set but have only got about half way through, my husband is a nightmare heβs already watched them and loses interest so I have loads of half watched series. Eureka, Sanctuary and Warehouse 13 are my big favourites,1

I started watching Fringe years ago when I was working in Kandahar, the local shops on camp there used to sell pirated DVDs so I think I had Season 1 & 2 only and forgot to ever go back to it. I did like Eureka that was another one I picked up over there or maybe in Iraq but did continue watching when I was home on leave. I kinda miss the pirate dvd shops there, they used to do some random mixed box sets with stuff I might not normally have gone for but would watch out of sheer boredom if I had a couple of hours to myself and find I enjoyed them.
I started watching The Stand this evening, I'm 3 episodes in and on the fence, I've never read the book so can't comment on how it compares or translates to screen.
Also took advantage of the 2 for 1 sale on audible this month and made my credit go a bit further, downloaded Look Who's Back (Dark comedy - Hitler wakes up in 2011, disgusted that there's immigrants everywhere and that the country is being run by a woman, starts his own Youtube channel to rant about it all) and The Humans (Also somewhat of a darker scifi comedy - An alien assessment of humans from a logical point of view) looking forward to both whilst I make more of an effort to get more steps in.1 -

That is hilarious! My dad is like that, only he also falls asleep after 5 mins so my mom always has to wait til I can watch with her.0 -

I DID TOO!!! I thought i was unfair that it was SO SHORT! It should have been like 12 episodes AT LEAST. The BBC is infamous for making series just 8 or 6 or even 5 episodes long... Like... ok, everyone's having pots of tea all through it and keep pausing it to go to the bathroom because of it so it feeeeels like it's 12 episodes long!0
