Happy Wednesday folks!

What have we all been watching this week?

I finished season 2 of This Fool which was great.

Currently sitting on my arse watching episode 7 of Hijack which has been a brilliant wee surprise. Not usually a fan of scary airplane stuff but this has me hooked.

Righteous Gemstones season 3 finished up this week too. Love a bit of Danny McBride and this season has been phenomenal.

Can’t forget What We Do in the Shadows - hilarious as ever.

Massive Pratchett fan here so I’m giving the new series of Good Omens a go, and I don’t know why I keep subjecting myself to TV Pratchett adaptations.

There’s the odd giggle, and I like the actors, but three episodes in it just goes nowhere, it’s just a series of skits with Aziraphale and Crowley.

They’re only one component of what made the book great, but I get the feeling that the production crew have gone “Tennant and Sheen are great, the show is now only about them”.

Huge Pratchett fan also, so quite disappointed as I’ve been saving that for this weekend. Still give it a go as I’m much in the same boat as you with regards to Tennant and Sheen.

have you given the Long Earth series a go that he did with Stephen Baxter?

As this is a telly thread I got all excited and wondered if someone had created a TV series of the Long Earth books ... but you just mean the books don't you?

I'm not the person you wrote that reply to, but I definitely enjoyed them, but then I'm almost as big a fan of Stephen Baxter as I am of Terry Pratchett.
