I've finished two Korean Shows recently.

1. Kingdom - Imo a borderline masterpiece.

2. Beyond Evil - A very good Show, Lee Dong Sik & Han Ju Won are very good leads imo. It's very twist heavy though as a warning to anyone that doesn't like that type of writing.

And I'm on a hiatus with The Night Agent at the moment, I'm undecided on if I should finish that off or not.

And Niamh I agree with you about From, I haven't watched Silo tbf so I can't judge that Show either way.

Yes! That wasn’t too long ago. Hilarious.

Recent episode was where Ros meets her baby’s grandparents with the huge noses - absolutely hysterical!

Just catching up with the final series of Succession. Half way through and I think it's very poor compared to previous series

Soooo I am going through a serious phase of escapism to take my mind off things …

Watched the box set of the 5 Twilight movies over a few evenings - worked a treat ..

Soooo obviously I went straight into the Vampire Diaries !!

There’s about 8 series which is great as it will hopefully keep me interested for some time …

I actually tried this years ago as I was into True Blood at the and rather enjoyed both of them .. I watched True Blood till the end but gave up on Vampire Diaries after a series or two … no idea why

I've watched 13 episodes of The Guest, and yes I'm going through a Korean Show binge lol.

I'd say with The Guest that it can appear to be a bit slow for the first half hour of episode 1, but once you get past that period it just gets better and better, if you're into Horror/exorcisms anyway.

I'd say that even the first half hour of episode 1 ages well once you start to understand it's importance to the story more deeply.

It's a 16 episode Season so it's not too long.

Well I've finished Mouse on my pilgrimage through Korean Dramas.

A very good Show, it's overall quality might not show itself immediately, but it truly is a masterpiece in fiction.

The ending was also sad imo, and not really the type of character you'd expect to be sad for either, which is a sign of a very strong writer in my view.

I've got to say though I'm having a blast with the Korean Shows at the moment, they're in general in a much better state than UK & US TV, and there I say it but they might be on better form than Japanese Anime as well.

It definitely feels like Korean TV is in it's own golden age.

Finally getting round to watching Killing Eve, it took a while to get through Season 1 and get into to it but I'm liking S2 a lot more

It does look a little low budget, alright

The young reporter girl is a terrible actress, I do however love the Vicars wife and the guy in jail

Don't listen to Niamh and watch this rubbish. Watch "Meet the Richardsons" instead. You'll have a much better time.

I only watched the first part of the pilot of Yellowstone, and it wasn't for me personally, but tbf I don't like that type of Show so it's probably a personal preference thing on my end rather than a genuine quality issue.

On my end I've been watching Season 2 of From, I'm six episodes into the Season and I'd say that it's definitely weaker than Season 1 imo as it suffers with padding (especially episodes 3-5) it's not bad by any means (especially compared to certain Shows that I've seen in recent years) but it does need a bit of direction in the plot department like Season 1 had.

I also think that the blonde girl who was on the Bus has been a poor character this Season, they've only given her one dynamic which makes her feel disconnected to most of the other characters in the programme.

And my god episode 5 really was dreadful in an iconic way.

Tbf though episodes 1 & 2 were really good imo, and Boyd Stevens as usual has been a really strong character for the Show, and the theme tune is fantastic, so there's definitely things to still really enjoy about the Show, but it's just a bit more uneven in quality imo.
