Anyone recommend a series for me to watch  ?   I watch a lot of films on Netflix but occasionally a good series comes along.  I've just finished watching an Australian drama on ITVx called Bay of Fires which I enjoyed.  A friend recommended it but she said it was a kind of a black comedy drama which put me off a bit.  BUT, in parts it was hilarious, violent and sometimes plain daft.

The reviews were mixed  :grin:
 
"Bay of Fires" is an Australian television crime drama and dark comedy series that follows the story of Stella, a high-flyer forced into witness protection. She relocates with her children to the isolated and unwelcoming town of Mystery Bay, Tasmania, where most residents are suspicious, devious, and criminally inclined. The series combines sharp humor, crime, and sometimes murder, making it an intriguing watch. While it may not have received widespread attention, it offers a unique blend of genres that some viewers might find underrated. If you enjoy crime thrillers with a darkly comedic twist, "Bay of Fires" could be worth checking out!

OR

Bay of Fires is a Tasmanian TV series that has received negative reviews from critics. The series is criticized for its poorly written script, unlikeable characters, lacklustre acting and predictable storyline. The series also suffers from tonal inconsistency and lack of clarity in its plot. Bay of Fires is seen as a waste of taxpayer funding and a disappointing product.

OUCH !   :grin:  :grin:

I seem to be spending most of my time watching the terrabytes of old stuff I have along with YouTube - I bit the bullet and paid for ad free. Against my miserly principals but the ads really are infuriating. I do pay for Prime but not the extra for ad free as I don't watch it much and mostly pay because I buy stuff from them.
