BBC4 are re running The Killing (the Scandinavian version) at the moment..what a great show that was
I'm old enough to remember my parents watching it when it originally ran. I watch the reruns on my antenna channel DECADES during the day. It is one of the greatest sitcoms of all time. MTM and all the surrounding characters are brilliant.Just started watching The Mary Tyler Moore Show for the first time ever. I grew up watching Nick at Nite and all those old sitcoms but MTMS never crossed my radar. I’ve heard about it for years as being groundbreaking and legitimately good, so here I am.
I'm currently in the middle of Mare, just finished episode 3, and I love Kate. She's just spectacular and the show itself is good. I have a theory of what I think is going on but I'm not 100% caught up so I'm not ready to say anything until I get caught up.I came in here trashing Mare of Easttown after watching one episode and I need to come back and let you all know how wrong I was. Honestly, I chalk a lot of that up to Kenny, who on introduction felt like such a Leo Johnson from Twin Peaks level cartoonishly dumb redneck type. But yeah, the show's very good; I'm glad it's been more about the characters than the mystery (that may have been another reason I was down on the pilot; the inciting murder seemed a little rote).
Also, I just finished my first ever watchthrough of Star Trek Deep Space Nine. It's very weird because it turns out I remember a decent number of episodes from watching it in syndication in the 90s (Hard Time is one which really stuck with me all these years). I liked it overall; funny enough, the show gets a lot of credit for introducing serialized story arcs and presaging a lot of trends in television storytelling in the next decade or two, but by the time I reached the end of the 10-episode concluding story arc I really missed the more self-contained episodes.

Same...watched one episode and then just let it keep playing through. Really well made show!You and I had the same evening! I'd been meaning to watch it cause I heard it was good. Ended up watching the four available in one go
I'm caught up too. I absolutely love Winslet's performance, she has been amazing.All caught up on Mare of Easttown. All the early comparisons to the cliche 'small town, big crime' storylines certainly don't do this show justice. This is peak TV right here. Just incredibly well done and a masterclass in tension building.

The scene where she came in the door and broke down after trying to talk to Colin's mom...just wow
