Just watched American Born Chinese on Disney. While not the best, it held our interest and the 30 minute (plus or minus) length per episode was perfect. It is very popcornish and if you enjoyed 70's or 80's kung fu movies or tv shows, this will be right up your alley.

I just watched part of the first episode. It's quite good.

Finished watching final series of Succession.

Succession that never happened. Logan Roy knew it all along that none of his heir were fit to run his empire. Epic and savage series finale. Such a shame it had to end.

Good storyline, although a bit derivative--cozy up the enemy and destroy them from within--revenge story. A mafia accountant's son seeks revenge for the death of his family. He plays the long game instead of whacking people on his hit list pdq, he earns their trust. Then he manipulates and kills them off one at a time over the course of 91 days.

Jack Ryan, Season 4, June 30, 2023.
It have showed up, but without any eps available yet.

Just finished Citadel’s 6 episodes…we thought it was quite well done, held our attention throughout, and wrapped everything up in some surprising and some not surprising ways. Very much looking forward to 2024’s Citadel: Diana that was teased at the end.
Meanwhile I found Citadel, and I really like it.
Not a chance we’ll run out of tv-series, they are endless.
 
Just finished season 4 of Fargo, long time since I’ve watched the previous season. Still like the styling a lot but it was less engaging than before. Maybe a bit of humor/nonsense missing to my taste.

I have actually watched so many shows that I’m considering taking a break. I’m still binging Curb Your Enthousiasm (half way through season 10 now) and after that maybe I don’t start a new show right away.

Over the last few months I’ve binged (deep breath): Rings of Power, Fear the Walking Dead S04, Family Guy S21, Clarksons Farm S02, Beef, Gomorra, Curb seasons 5-10, You S04, Living With Yourself and Mandalorian S03.

Do you guys have a system to keep track of it all? Like when new episodes are released? I’ve been using the Dutch website seriesfeed.com for many years, I’ve tracked over 5 months worth of watched time over 115 shows. Quite neat ticking off episodes and having a release calendar.

Amazing show, I have rarely seen such consistency throughout an entire run. That alone is worth praise.

I use an app called Next Episode... has entries for almost all shows ever produced... track seasons/episodes and you can build a queue of stuff that you want to watch. It even syncs between devices with iCloud. And there's also a website in lieu of a macOS app.

Nice. This used to be essential before the days of streaming to keep track. Though with the fragmented offerings across platforms it’s still somewhat challenging to know what’s launching when. Personally I cancel subscriptions when I’ve finished what I wanted to see, then resubscribe when two or more shows/seasons are available to watch.

You could head over to thetvdb.com for potential released. They have an API available in case you want to integrate it into your own software. Or looking at the download scene, you could use Sonarr, which is a PVR but you don't have to use it like that. You could simply add TV/streaming series to it and will keep track (using tvdb) for you.

The website I’m using sources from tvdb.com thetvdb.com, would be cool to have something bespoke though. Anyway I hope my site will keep going, already moved once before. Good to have alternatives.

I just watched a 6-episode Korean series titled, Black Night. South Korean movie-makers are becoming second to none these days.

My wife and I started watching the DVD's of, "Strange New Worlds" (a prequel to Star Trek), but we don't like them at all. It seems that there was an extra emphasis on political correctness instead of science, exploration, and that sort.

Love K Drama. Viki is my goto for all shows Asian
 
Finished Ted Lasso...I'm just a little sad.

Also, just started binging the final 10 episodes of Manifest. Season 4 (Netflix) was split into two parts... episodes 11-20 just dropped on Friday.
