Fisk, a gem of an Aussie comedy.
I'm 2 episodes in and enjoying it.
Fisk lacks the satirical sharpness and dark brilliance of The Office. But the show has a strange, low-key charm, and vibrates at a comic frequency unlike anything else on TV now, and is worth watching for that alone.
I think this is fairly accurate.

Likewise, very much enjoying!
I doff my cap to anyone who manages to get past episode 2 of fool me once. There may be a decent story line or original book there somewhere but my god the TV plot line, script and acting is dog poo.

Not on any legal service via the UK unfortunately. Stream only
It has an interesting storyline. I would think it would be good for us without addictions to see the struggles of everyone with addictions every second & every day they struggle. Every alcoholic & addicted individual seems to fall and break their need to stay away from their addicted substance.

I tend to check them all anyway, so it's no skin off my nose where people post their recommendations. But in case people are just struggling to find the relevant thread, I thought I'd post them here.
[TV] - Any Amazon recommendations please?
Slowly getting into the 21st century, anything worth specifically viewing on Amazon please now the nights are drawing in?

[TV] - What's good to watch on BBC iPlayer ?
I thought i'd kick things off... All 8 series of the superb French cop/corruption/inner city drama "Spiral" are available as a box set. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b0072wk9/spiral

[TV] - Paramount Plus Recommendation
The Offer, 10 episode factual drama based on the making of The Godfather. Fascinating stuff for all movie buffs. Well worth a look.

[TV] - What's good to watch on All 4?
Odd that we don't have this, yet all other TV is covered. Toast Friday Night. Freaks & Geeks Sienfeld Green Wing Sexy Beast 127 Hours Shot Caller The West Wing Deutschland This is England & my reason for writing:- New series of Fargo. Loved the first. Stuck with the second. Didn't bother...

[TV] - Disney+
This couldn’t have been much more perfectly timed, could it? The app was waiting to be installed on the AppleTV this morning so we’re all set! You in? What (other than The Mandalorian) are you going to be watching first? As a massive Disney parks fan, it will be The Imagineering Story for me.

Anybody else had their Netflix account completely wiped overnight? Watched S1E1 of Fisk yesterday, all good. Went to watch S1E2 today and my account has completely vanished. No mobile number, no payment details, nothing. It's asking me to sign up like my account never existed. I double-checked my email address. Anybody else got experience of this? What gives?

Mine is fine. Would it be racialist to enquire as to whether you have paid your subs?Anybody else had their Netflix account completely wiped overnight? Watched S1E1 of Fisk yesterday, all good.

Yup, all good on that front. And even if it wasn't, they wouldn't send you emails saying your phone number no longer seemed to be associated with your account, they'd send you something along the lines of not being able to take your payment. Their chat guy confirms I no longer have any phone number, payment method or anything else associated with my accountMine is fine.

*edit* Racialist!
It seems to me that programs like this are given extraordinary amounts of publicity to 'tell' us it's great. We started watching it but didn't like it. We watched the second ep cos 'it's supposed to be really good', but it was utter rubbish. Plot holes all over the place, unbelievable story line and appalling acting - don't get why Michelle Keegan is so rated - she's terrible! Easy to guess what the outcome would be - after we decided to give up on it I said what I reckoned happened, googled it and spot on! Not even an unexpected outcome!.

So it's not your TV box that has wiped your details, your actual Netflix account has lost all your information? Did chat guy give any explanation as to how that could happen?Yup, all good on that front.

No, he just looked it up my account using my name and email address, same as I did. There's literally nothing there. He tried to steer me down the path of providing my account details, tho I wasn't having that, and told him why. Ah well, bolleaux to Netflix
