What Are You Watching? 2026

Channel 4 has finally caught up to what I previously saw of Married at First Sight Australia, and actually went ahead, so currently on episode 20. It's been so long :disco:
 
Season 1 up to Ep 4 of Euphoria and loving it! I'll dive into the moopy thread for it once I get along a bit
 
New Spanish series on Prime ‘Cochinas’ (Naughty Business). A conservative housewife has to confront her beliefs when her husband falls into a coma, leaving her in charge of their video store on the brink of bankruptcy. She specializes in selling adult films, causing uproar in the neighborhood.

I do love a good Spanish series. Bonus points for showing a large (flaccid) penis in the first couple of minutes.

Just watching Half Man on BBC by the Baby Reindeer bloke. Not what I was expecting, but I'll keep with it
 
I just finished the first episode. I enjoyed it, will be interesting to see how long they continue with the younger versions of the characters.

Older Ruben is clearly a LOT
 
Yes I got into it by half way through. Very intriguing. and hot, in places.
 
There's a whole thread for it my loves:



I'll also wait til there are more eps out. Weekly roll out for a drama is not for me

Yesterday I watched my first ever episode of MASTERCHEF* now that the awful men presenters are gone and they've got in Grace Dent and a nice irish chef. I get why it does well, it's very watchable and you can have your phone out. One lady did thai green chicken curry but where the chicken was deep fried 😍

*other than when I was a kid and the Lloyd Grossman version would come on after the EE omnibus
 
Just finished watching the last series of The Capture. If I'm totally honest I was barely able to keep up with what was going on for about three episodes, but it was quite thrilling nonetheless. Wouldn't be half the series it is without Holliday Grainger though. She's quite marvellous.
 
Margo's Got Money Troubles with Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer is quite fun. Nick Offerman's transformation is not Richard Gadd level but it is not so far off.

Nicole Kidman's just popped up as a retired wrestler at a wrestling convention.

Just started this today. Elle Fanning is just fantastic.

I loved her in The Great, she is wonderful here too. I'm caught up with all the released episodes now. It is a great cast, Pfeiffer just stole the latest episode for me.
 
Anyone watched La Cancion? Wasn't sure whether to post this in the (dreaded) Eurovision forum.

1968 Spain, an ambitious TV executive is tasked with winning the Eurovision Song Contest. Massiel's catchy "La La La" triumphs through an iconic performance. It's the story behind that unexpected victory.

I watched most of the 100th birthday show for David Attenborough at the Royal Albert Hall this evening; nice he was there in-person too. 💛🏞
So many random tributes 😅
 
Whilst I can't say season 2 of The Pitt has dropped off in quality, I'm a lot less invested in it than I was binging through the first and truly feeling like we had a full day's work. I'm onto episode 9 (3pm) of 15.
 
I'm still on the first season of The Pitt. I know it is good but more than an episode a week feels a bit too much.
 
Watching the Prisoner thing. Enjoying episode 1 so far. Guy is hot and I like Nina (or perhaps enjoy is the word - she's clearly ruthless).
 
BAFTAs (the TV awards) was just on, rather nice on the whole, great performances from Cat Burns and Aurora (during the tributes) 🎶
Leading actress was awarded to Narges Rashidi, who played Nazanin Zaghari-Radcliffe; lovely that the lady herself, her husband and daughter were also there 💗
 
Oh I realised later but I forgot to mention Mel and Sue presenting Mary Berry with an award yesterday! 😍🍰

Hard agree - binging season one was good - eeking out season 2 is loosing a lot of the momentum. Maybe I should hold off for a few weeks so I can do them in a oner.
 
Hadn't heard of Interior Design Masters With Alan Carr before. I'll have to catch back up, it's onto episode 4 of 8.

Ooooh. Is it on streaming anywhere?
 
Has anyone watched 'Two weeks in August' yet? (BBC). I saw them touting it as a British version of The White Lotus on The One Show (:Roxxxy:) so that piqued my interest.
 
I've watched the first two and really like it so far. A low key fun watch, full of "Them out of that thing"s. AND it's got GAYS!
 
I've only watched the first one of Two Weeks in August but I enjoyed it. The rich and slightly less rich friends dynamic is pretty well covered in recent dramas but it is lovely to look at and people not having that much fun on holiday is generally good value. Damien Molony's haircut is quite dreadful though.
