This is my Sunday night boozy viewing go to. It's a shame they don't have all seasons on.

I looked Southland up (great name!) and the reviews for it are terrific. Same for The Shield.

Will have a look.

Just finished watching the 4 part series called Anne on Foxtel about one ladies quest for justice for the 96 people that died at Hillsborogh. Incredibly moving.

I'm a bit late to this but just started watching 'You Can't Ask That' on ABC. Bloody good viewing and very addictive.

Watched the movie and season one of Mystery Road, liked it but never found my way back to it. I tend to forget about the ABC shows with all the other streaming services.

Ever watch Jack Irish? Loved that, need to watch the movies first though.
Bad Debts (2012)
Black Tide (2012)
Dead Point (2014)
Series 1: Blind Faith (2016)
Series 2: Last Rite (2018)
Series 3: Hell Bent (2021)

The Bear on Disney is good. Part drama, part comedy with that Chicago pride vibe. About a brilliant chef who comes back to run his brothers sandwich restaurant after he dies.

You would've been sitting around the ole Rank Arena back in the day hey pal? Strop, Arthur Dunger and Leo Wanker were classics, my old mans indoor cricket team was called "The Dungers", played Sunday nights after a Sunday full of piss.
HOGG SHIELD DIVISION V WINNER 2018.
