No but it looks worth downloading when it finishes next week.

Opening episode was quite shocking, it has twists in the plot and the detective is brilliant  ;D

I'm half-way through an 8 episode Italian series called My Brilliant Friend. Filmed over 20 yrs it chronicles two girls growing up in a poor district of Naples from the early 50s onward.

Somehow I don't seem to be able to get into these programmes --my wife is very keen on them and watches
most that are on air,but for me no.

I watch a lot of telly (sorry, that should be A LOT) but I would say that I probably watch more repeats than new stuff, Castle, Monk and the likes not to mention a lot of old films, but I am watching Arrow, NCIS New Orleans, Seal Team. The Good Doctor plus a few others, I'm also recording The Strain, Constantine, Acceptable Risk and Doctor Foster although I haven't actually watched any of them yet, don't know if they are my cup of tea or not, but it wouldn't be the first time I've recorded a whole series and deleted them all after watching the first episode (and not always all of that)

I agree with your last sentence. I've not watched most of what you mentioned but I have watched 'The Good Doctor'. I found it a bit of a Curate's egg. Good in parts. Something of a showcase for the talents of Freddie Highmore, I thought.

Hi Zoony---I don't have much of a preference --more of a film fan really with the odd drama pitched in.

little bob- I like some of the older movies like The Quiet American. I believe there were some brothers in the film.
