Can't agree on this, Cheers is a classic US sitcom and usually included in top 10 or 20 lists of all-time great sitcoms. Frasier as well, plus it had a reboot out recently that renewed interest. I ain't got no time for marathons of anything I've seen before, but Cheers and Frasier are much more revered than Get Smart or I Dream of Jeannie, albeit successful in their own right.
Started Tattooist of Auschwitz. It's good but geez it's sad.
Yeah, anytime I happen to flick past and see Frasier on, I'll stop. The writing was first class.

I had a similar problem with Seinfeld. Season 1 to 7 was some of the best TV comedy we've seen. I watched a crappy episode at the start of season 8 and it was like I hit a brick wall. I'll get back into it.
My rewatch of Seinfeld late last year (original aim was to time the re-watch so I'd reach the Festivus episode at Christmas time... but I burned through the episodes faster that I finished the series way before Christmas lol). I was dreading starting it as I am not the biggest fan of season 2 for example... to the point where with one of my last re-watches I deliberately watched the series in reverse order starting at season 9.
Anyway I actually enjoyed the earlier episodes more than I usually do when I last watched it.

Great shows but the way you consume the media is extremely bizarre.

Finished Band of Brothers last night.
Just exceptional viewing. The scene where they discover the concentration camp was just heart breaking.
Thought the final episode was superb as well - capturing the Eagle Nest but also showing how many sadly died after the war had already been won. Crazy stuff.
On to The Pacific next. Going to be hard to top Band of Brothers though.

Additionally making my way through the last season of The Crown with my better half.
Just watched the ep where Diana dies. Going over old territory but just such a tragic loss of life for absurd reasons.
I feel like the show was at its best in the early seasons. Seems to be a lot of liberties being taken in this newest season. The whole conversation in the hotel room before it happened - they have no idea what was said, should've just skipped that entirely.

It's fantastic for "reality TV" the council are *.

Ha, yep mate. Oops. Will edit my post.
I've watched all 12 episodes. It's a great show.

Apparently they have signed on for season 3 and 4.
I loved Line of Duty and this feels very similar. I also love the fact that it is set in Belfast with the undertone of the Troubles playing through.
I watched episode 1 last night and its going to be a tough watch.
I have read both books and no doubt the tears will flow at some stages watching it.
Platform?
