Finished Stranger Things, was OK.
Watching Lucifer now, seems a lot better than I expected after two episodes, will watch a few more today.

Cracking episode of Shameless last night - Back to the old days with the perfect blend of humour and shock value.

Hurry up, I need a new series.
Did you find Designated Survivor is starting to wane? Could improve if the FBI Agent & Karen from Californication have a bra & panties pillow fight.

Don 'The Grub' Burke. Heard rumours about him being an absolute arsehole years ago but sounds like he's been up to a bit more than that. More hands than Henry the Octopus.

@Magellan

I couldn't find the show you told me to watch on SBS On Demand, but Series 2 of Death Row was on there, so I watched all four episodes back to back to back to back.

They ended on Darlie Routier who I've seen something on before. Bummed me out. :lol:

Cheers. Haven't seen Death Row, might have a look, although I find death penalty stuff a bit hard to watch.

The SBS show is 'American Justice', should still be available for streaming (check under 'documentaries').

Finished it off, wow, huge last episode!
I liked the way that some of the original characters from the movie were in the series.
Hopefully a series 2!

100% agree, it's got some great Aussie person-to-person banter. Darren Gilshenan (the other cop) is particularly funny IMO, and the scenes with Dan Wyllie and the other crook (name escapes me) are piss funny too.

I'm interested and worried how the American version stands up - I'm not confident, the Yanks have shithouse form in this regard.

Dan Wyllie is good in whatever he's in. One of my fave Australian actors.
