I've been enjoying Resident Alien as well, just started series 2.
Brockmire is another one to have a look at, very funny.

Moon Knight, yes it's Marvel again but good/different Marvel, not Wanda Vision different either and set this side of the Atlantic.
Just watched episode 5 of Moon Knight and it all went a bit "Legion" at the end, if Aubrey Plaza rocks up then that's me off put!
Just started watching 'We Own This City' (HBO series)
Three episodes in and I'm thinking if this is how things are in the States now, I might never go to the US again.

@Loz. We keep meaning to do the same with The Sopranos and The Wire but there just seems to be so much other stuff. That said, a lot of the shows that we are watching are coming to season (or ultimate) finales during May which gives a chance to revisit others in the summer. The current watch list includes a few shows that I would recommend very highly such as Better Call Saul, Bosch Legacy and Ozark. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is also very promising as is We Own This City as mentioned by @Grim Reaper. Unfortunately, it's also fairly representative of parts of the modern USA which in places is (and has been for some time) something approaching a third world khazi even if it is nice and shiny on the surface
Finished Ozark, enjoyed that series. Watching Better call Saul, which I agree is a brilliant series. Watched S2 of Picard. What a pile of crap and Seven of Nine isn't as sexy as she was!
What channel/streaming service is "we own this city on" ?
"Isn't as sexy as she was"... I would still crawl over broken glass just to throw pebbles in her... and yes I am aware the point is moot.
Right, in no particular order:-
Signors Volpe
Capitaine Marleau
Star Trek Strange New Worlds
Halo
Derry Girls
Grace
Barry (season 3)
Waiting for "Only Murders in the Building" season 2 coming next month and second half of season 2 Resident Alien.
With Signora Volpe this is part of my comfort viewing selection along with other Acorn TV series like the Chelsea Detective and Harry Wild.

Minder, timeless classic RIP Terry
If only! I also love the Slow Horses books but Oldman wasn't quite the Lamb I envisioned although I thought Scott Thomas was outstanding as Taverner.
Enjoyed the series for what it was but I guess it's hard to condense a book into a few episodes without losing a lot of detail so I felt a little short changed. Hopefully if they do another they'll commision a few extra episodes to give Herrons writing full justice.
Severence was also another good watch.
WE OWN THIS CITY is not the sixth season of The Wire, but you can see why the comparison is so tempting to make
Perhaps it is because she isn't in the spray on suit ! I still wouldn't say no, though.....
I was actually quite pleased with how the series went - maybe not the TV highlight of the year that I had hoped for but a pretty damed good effort all the same. For sure, they left a few things outer and changed stuff but I can't recall any other TV adaptation that didn't do the same and most of them not nearly so well. On Gary Oldman's take on Jackson Lamb, IMHO, they were probably right to tone the character down a bit as he would have just a bit too repulsive had they stuck faithfully to the depiction in the books (indeed, I seem to recall seeing something to that effect being said in an interview with Gary Oldman in the weeks running up to the show starting).
