They aren’t, it’s one a week. In the UK we have to wait until June. Don’t think I’ll be waiting that long though…

1 per week, its only a mini series as well... so presumably 8 or so episodes. Wont have anywhere near the depth of The Wire due to the length but still hyped.

4 eps into Peaky Blinders S6 binge. Bit bored tbh.

Redeems itself in the last episode.

Moon Knight gets more whacky by the week. Only 2 left and still no idea how it’ll end.

Just watched the first couple of episodes of that Severance on Apple TV.
Seems very intriguing so far, very Black Mirror-esque!

This whole scene is now living rent free inside my head lol

It’s only 6 episodes sadly. Hopefully quality over quantity

Better Call Saul still as good as always. I think Mike is easily in my top 5 TV characters ever, and might be number 1.

And I'm a big fan of them releasing them every week rather than in a block.

Personally I hate weekly. It'll stay on the list until I can binge it.

Not quite with you there mate. Feel like loads went unresolved and then they bottled the ending. Defo picked up those last two episodes though.

This was much much better than I thought it was going to be :

Seven Seconds. ( Netflix )

Written by the creator of the Killing.

Set in an snowy New York. A young, off duty drug squad officer, runs over an African American teenager on his bike. Who may or may not be a gang member.

His corrupt colleagues, convince and assist him to cover things up.

The case is assigned to a loner detective and a washed up, alcoholic District Attorney and the more they dig, the more they unravel the web of lies spun by the officers.

Has a real feel of the Shield / Southland.

Well written, well cast, dark and handles tricky subjects like racial prejudice, drug use / drug dealing within ethnic communities and endemic corruption with a real skill.

Maybe two episodes too long at ten episodes, but other than that recommended.
