Compulsive viewing

This new series is masterful, mystery, material [Like what I did there?]

The acting is out of this world. Mark Gatiss triumphs again.

Is it on Netflix or Sky or wha?

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) is out 'on the internet.'  It's almost 3 hours long but once it gets going, you don't notice the time passing.

Crime drama on BBC 1.

Drugs, Crime, Paramilitaries, etc.

We just finished series 3. Excellent.

The Diplomat:

4 and a half stars on Rotten Tomatoes is a good enough recommendation for me.

Really enjoyed it.

BLACK SWAN:

Criminality and dodgy lawyers in Denmark, deadly.

Probably the only Irish produced programme that doesn't have you cringing behind the sofa.

Hilarious and well acted:

We finally got Netflix back.

I was a big fan of Scandi fiction writer Jo Nesbo.

There have been a few versions of his books, this one is by far the best:

Detective Hole [pronounced HOO-LEH!]

Brilliant performances by all the cast.

It's sub-titled, but don't let that put you off.

Five stars all the way.

If darts on TV is too exciting for you,  Streaming channel for pets launched in China.

Clips of a duckling swimming in a bath or two happy pooches patrolling their neighbourhood are examples of the curated programming on "PetTV".  The new channel on Tencent Video - China's most popular online streaming platform - is meant to keep pets company while alone or can act as an activity for animals and humans to enjoy together.

Would an Irish dog understand a Chinese dog or would they need sub-titles?
