Dark Matter

 


Imagine Cormac McCarthy rewriting Michael Keaton's Multiplicity, or perhaps in a different timeline it'd be Chekhov taking a swipe at Quantum Leap.   But either way, watch this f***** series - SO good!

Joel Edgerton stars as Jason[0], whose love for Jennifer Connelly's Daniela leads him back home across time, space and quantum matter.  I think I'ma need to read me some Blake Crouch books.

Slow Horses win the race





Slow Horses is a bit like if Alan Furst got together with David Simon and they combined forces to follow a modern day MI5 unit.

This is a very well-written show with unique characters and edge of your seat action and chase scenes and infinitely funnier than most other workplace dramas out there.

You can almost smell Gary Oldman's character - Jackson Lamb - who heads up an MI5 unit full of misfits that continually find themselves in fake situations with disastrous consequences.  Lamb leads the disgraced unit, but his backstory is Smiley/Bond worthy from the sounds of it, and his caring for the "Joes" under his command seems sincere.

The Witchfinder General

See is an epically decent fantasy/action series set in a future where humanity has lost the power of sight.  There's incredible world-building and characters and the story sucks you in.   

For this world they have almost had to re-invent what makes a good battle scene or chase scene.  Very fun to watch.
