It never grabbed me for some reason and I dropped the Disney+ sub (may rejoin for a month and binge over christmas )
Ranma 1/2 is now being shown on Netflix
read the Manga many years ago and started watching the TV series (it is old but looks like its been remastered). Really silly, funny and I'm enjoying it. Characters are over the top with plenty changing when they are splashed with cold water (hot water reversing it). Main Character changes into a girl, his father changes into a panda.
Ranma ½ has a comedic formula and a sex-changing main character, who often willfully transforms into a girl to advance his goals. The series also contains many other characters, whose intricate relationships with each other, unusual characteristics, and eccentric personalities drive most of the stories. Although the characters and their relationships are complicated, they rarely change once they are firmly introduced and settled into the series.

Funny enough I'd not heard of this till yesterday so just d/l the first one.
Tried Cross , generic and annoying for me in equal measure and unbelievably the biggest Amazon show ever ? WTF.
Now on Sons of Anarchy as nephew who recommended Saul/BB said try this and first ep was great and also watching Russian Doll as we love love love her !
Kudos to What we do in the shadows final ep for having alternate endings and also a big WOW to that opening ep of the anaimated series Secret Level by the sex, death and robots lot - just WOW. And I also liked the eternal king one too from the first 5
just binged the series with my son (home from college over christmas)
not recent but haven't had paramount + (binge meant I watched in the trial and didn't see anything worth subscribing to
overall enjoyed it though has a number of inconsistencies in terms of plot - still worth a watch

Just started Modern Family (yeah I know) and it's really really great right off the bat - only 245 more eps to go ! Hubby is watching Its always Sunny and says that is great too - I suppose these dont get voted best sitcoms of all time by mistake......

I also enjoyed the series. I have a feeling that the prequel series, Dexter: Original Sin, will be less impressive. The upcoming Dexter: Resurrection could be interesting.
With all these franchise spinoffs is Showtime trying to do a Disney?
Emoticon and contraction free since... quite a while ago.
..I mean feck me I watched episode 2 of The Last of Us season 2 for the second time last night and it's like a kick in the nuts every time. I was in bits. The videogame prepared me for it (was in bits then, too..) but the hit is powerful. Masterful telly, seriously - and the infected fight going on at the same time.. just brilliant stuff.

I just watched the first episode, and I have to say I was disappointed.
It just went a bit too silly and got carried away with having a star of the moment (Cynthia Erivo) and feeling they had to overuse her, and whilst the 5 roles idea had some merit, all the characters were just stereotypes rather than humans.
No sense of realism or threat either, and the hitmen were just cartoonish.
Hopefully, it gets better as S1 was just wonderful.
Aside from Andor (season 2 has been great so far) I have been watch “The Eternaut”. An Argentinian near future science fiction series dealing with a catastrophic event from the view point of a few survivors. Slow initially but episode 3 has a big surprise.
Only 6 episodes in Season 1 and believe Season 2 is on the way. Well worth checking out

Indeed. Like the game its heavy going!
Finding it a bit difficult to get into at the moment think its a state of mind thing as it all is a touch depressing and the story is about revenge.
Will be catching up with this tomorrow and doing a bit of binge watching.
The other thing I've been watching is Long Way Home - with Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boardman. Enjoying it - easy watching an appeals to my adventure seeking side.
