Weekly shows discussion and recommendation thread - what have you watched this week?

Pachinko is the best show airing right now imo. Phenomenal writing, directing, and acting. Minha Kim is absolutely incredible.

The Penguin is great - proper HBO prestige type show. Craig Zobel directed the first two episodes (at least) - he's a name I recognise from Mare of Easttown. No idea why they cast an attractive Irish guy to play an 'unattractive' American guy, but it only distracted me a bit in episode one.

Taskmaster Australia is out now too. It's got way too many ad breaks, but it's not like I'm watching it being broadcast, and the host has said he "doesn't give a shit" if it's pirated (unlike the Taskmaster NZ host, who's said we're all going to hell). It's a good alternative / addition to Taskmaster UK, which is also on now and is still watchable, but has been on the wane the past few years.

Finished watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and started watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia in parallel with the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Podcast.

BBC has a new Dramedy starring David Mitchell, called Ludwig. I’ve only watched episode 1, but I enjoyed it and I’m looking forward to watching the rest.

I’m going to check out Last Days of the Space Age this weekend as well.

Finished a rewatch of What We Do In The Shadows. Funniest show I’ve seen recently.

Also watched the latest episode of Bad Monkey. Shame that only one episode a week is getting released.

Have also watched the first two episodes of Bodkin. Intriguing so far.

The Monday thread seemed to have an issue to get pinned, I guess it is because it was from another instance, so this one is from a lemm.ee account
