I've been watching Poker Face. Pretty good so far. Not brilliant, but certainly watchable. I've read that it has been compared to Columbo.
Well, maybe. The credits look the same. However, I thought I might
watch a few Columbo episodes to refresh my memory. I backed that up
with some old Quincy M.E. episodes too. Fabulous. Both series are
excellent and stack up very well in 2023.

I dug out the box set of the BBC series of Smiley's people and Tinker
tailor soldier spy. I don't think that they've ever been bettered, Alex Guinness as Smiley and great production standards not to mention great stories to start with.

**I don't believe I've seen Smiley's People. Tinker, Tailor, Soldier,
Spy was brilliant though. As for Quincy, I suggest you watch Season 5 Episode 21. If nothing else, it was a standout episode and quite
different from the usual Quincy episodes.
BTW: I re-watched Frasier last year. Brilliant.

I've also got two DVD sets of Callan, 1970s BW series with Edward
Woodwood as a government hit man. Rather dark, but very good.

Endeavour was better than Morse IMHO, we watch Vera, but I liked
Shetland (from the same author) better. Best American comedy - Seinfeld, best US series - The Sopranos, The wire, Breaking bad.
We've been watching Clarkson's Farm, Clarkson isn't the most likeable character, but it's fun to see him bumbling and fucking up in his overconfident way. It also shows the shit that UK farmers have to go
through with bureaucracy gone mad.

I've read all the Shetland books, the TV series don't follow them
exactly, but do have the essence of the books.

We've just watched series 2, I hope that they make a third series
although that is touch and go after his outburst about Megan Markle.
Another worthwhile series is "Slow horses" on Apple TV, the book series
is also a worthwhile read.
