It's got Rufus from The Man in the High Tower (I still need to finish that). I think it's pretty smart. Most of the cast is growing on me.  Lenny Kosnowski as Donald J. Biden is fun. 

Reminds me of Slow Horses. Hope we get a season 3 of that one.

We kept waiting for "the change" from when a show attempts to hook you vs. when it "hits its stride".  Finished the season.... still waiting.

Just finished Drops of God on Apple TV... it was pretty good.

Just started this....
1 episode in... really interesting so far.

You might also like "People Like Us", a British mockumentary series about a bumbling interviewer talking to various people about their jobs and careers. The whole thing teeters on the edge of absurdity and the deadpan jokes come at you fast and furiously. Season 1 is on Amazon Prime at the moment.

Oh noes!
‘The Last of Us’ Is a Very Conservative Show. Really. (NYT, Goldberg)

Then again it's hard to imagine a post-pandemic/apocalyptic 'liberal' dystopia.

Cunk on Earth via Netflix.  Only five episodes but we laughed hard throughout. Rumour has it HobieJoe is a fan, too. Trailer here: 


I believe there are a couple of other Cunk series on YouTube (Cunk on Britain and Cunk on Shakespeare), but we haven't had a chance to look for them yet.

I was on the edge... you talked me into it.

Started watching Shrinking on Apple... Ep 1 was OK... we'll give it some time.

I'd read about the video game's unusually bleak/consequential game play. Sounded like a good premise for yet another post-apocalyptic/dystopian TV series.

Saw episodes 1 & 2. So far, so good.

Charlie started watching The Last of Us because it's got Pedro Pascal (he knows him from the Star Wars series' Mandalorian) and among the cameos listed was Nick Offerman. No spoilers except to say it's a zombie series based on a video game.

As much as I don't enjoy the ugh factor or the BOO! factor, the series is very compelling and Holy Shit episode 3 ... even if you don't want to watch the first two episodes, you don't really have to to get into ep. 3 and there's minimal zombie, maximal story. You might even cry. Some of my friends online last night were in fact crying.
