NETFLIX has a sports doco series called Untold. Each episode is a little known sporting event/drama. I watched Operation Flagrant Foul last night. Former NBA referee Tim Donaghy rigging games, involved with the mob uncovered by accident by the FBI. V.Good

The 83 America's cup edition looks quite interesting as well.
On my watch list

Re: TV thread 2
House of the Dragon was much better than Rings of Power, and if you only watch one that is the way to go.
Andor is the best Star Wars show in a while too.
We've just started on The Bear after hearing good things.

I watched The Northman and I don't think it was very good.

Bear was a good watch, Nice and short so easy to get through
Moved on to season 2 of Mysterious Benedict Society with the kids. Wouldn't necessarily recommend it to watch solo, but its a good family show.
Not sure what Mrs Cow and I are moving on to next. Sandman, The Peripheral and This England are ones we're thinking of getting on to.

Enjoyed Bear also. Waiting on Lebrea on 9. Fisk is a weekly release on ABC but have no binges planned. Open to ideas

Re: TV thread 2
Watched the first season of Upright (Tim Minchin, Milly Alcock - second season starts next week).
Top recommend - it's on Foxtel or just acquire it however you want.
Haven't laughed/cried that much watching a TV series in a while.
Beautiful scenery of Aus too.
Andor - Best Star Wars TV series yet.
Northman - agree that it's hugely overated.
New season of White Lotus has started off well.

Haven't done Andor yet, but that's one without Mrs NW.
Upright was awesome and hanging out for season 2. Meg with the extra age under her belt seems to have grown into the spunk she showed in the first series. If you haven't, watch the extended trailer not the one they are promoting at the moment. "You're in FNQ every man and his dog is running away from something"

Started this last night, watched 5 episodes. Its also on Binge (don't know if this is obvious, as Binge is a Foxtel thing). Fantastic show. Gets a bit heavy/close to home around episode 4 and 5.

Yeah it's sad and real but beautiful.
Look forward to hearing what you think of it once you've finished. It continues to ramp up the feels.

Finally got around to finishing off the last few episodes. Definitely gets you in the feels. One of the best shows I've watched in a long time.

Everyone gave up on the Simpsons years ago, but the latest treehouse of horror was astray pretty good. One of the best episodes in a while

Re: TV thread 2
Bear was great, ripped through it in a few nights, so good.
Upright doesn't appeal but u guys giving it a solid wrap here.
Liked The Watcher, pretty light but entertaining.
Recommend Black Bird, Hauser portrayal of Larry Hall the serial killer was so good,
show

After giving The Watcher an initial wrap, I thought it faded in the later episodes. Not sure I'd do a sseason 2 if there was one.

TLOU is awesome, I didn't like the final episode though
But yes episode 3 was great - In the beginning I was saying "nope, nope, don't trust him"
