We just binged the latest series of Unforgotten in two days. Fantastic. Need more like that

What service is that on? dont think Ive come across that.

Also Im coming to the end of book 4 of the bobiverse series and looking for my next. Have you read the Revelation Space series by Alastair Reynolds? Any good if so?

First few series are on Netflix. The latest is on the itv hub. Really good.

No. I can recommend you try a bit of Peter Hamilton though. Superb. All of his stuff.

@john-folan Its great! Gets better as it goes on.

Good shout on Farscape @matt-wood. Something to watch now I have finished series two of Snowpiercer.

[John Folan]

Can highly recommend Invincible on Amazon Prime. I have read the graphic novel and it is superb. The first 3 episodes are up. I’ve watched the first and it is as good as the graphic novel.

Finally got around to watching Ex Machina on Netflix yesterday. Meh... for me it felt over hyped. Was pretty predictable.

@john-folan That series was done so well, my fav along with Farscape.

Never watched that. Did they finish it properly?

In a short answer...Yes.

Got cancelled after season 3, fan tantrum led to season 4 then cancelled. Fan tantrum for a finish to the story lead to a 'season 5' which was two episodes of around 90mins each.

Some of the special effects are probably a bit dated now but well worth a watch. My all time fav sci-fi series.

Think its still on Prime at the moment.

It’s on there. Away we go

Give it chance, the first season starts slowly, by 3rd and 4th seasons its really top stuff.

Hitting the middle of season 4 of my rewatch of Battlestar Galactica. Honestly forgot how good it was. The only thing that I’ve found as good is The Expanse.

Need some books around this sort of military sci fi genre. Done “The Lost Fleet” series which was decent. Any other recommendations gratefully received.

Any fans of The Goldbergs here? I'm not exactly sure how they can continue it anymore without Pops.

RIP George Segal.

Hadn't even realised season 8 had already aired. Will be interesting to see if they continue after that.
