Every Friday, TMINE lets you know when the latest TV shows from around the world will air in the UK
Gosh. What a lot of lovely new shows on our way. After the jump, we can talk about the shows that now have premiere dates, which are: APB, Little Fires Everywhere, The Great, Betty, Dérapages (Inhuman Resources) and Philharmonia.
But first here are the past week’s acquisitions.
Heder (Honour)
Oops, I missed it
I should probably point out first that BBC Two acquired FXX (US)’s Dave and started showing it yesterday. and that Sky Atlantic will be showing HBO (US)’s I Know This Much Is Truetonight at 9pm. Meanwhile, StarzPlay has acquired Viaplay (Sweden)’s Heder (Honour)
It’s “What have you been watching?”, your chance to recommend to fellow TMINE readers anything you’ve been watching this week
Previously on TMINE
It’s been a quiet week for TV reviewing on TMINE this week, since I’ve basically been busy as f*ck. And not just recording a podcast. Sorry about that. And I had such plans, too!
But I have been watching TV, just not reviewing it, as you’ll soon see…
Next on TMINE
Coming up after the jump, I’ll be reviewing Betty (US: HBO; UK: Sky Comedy) and Upload (Amazon). I have every intention of doing another Covideodrome, too, seeing as I’ve rewatched Inception (2010) and watched Faster (2010) and Extraction (2020) this week. It’s just a question of when…
There’s more TV on the way this week, but as usual, Covid-19 rules apply to the following new shows: I have every intention of watching all of them, but might not be able to, for one reason or another. That and the fact it’s a Bank Holiday tomorrow.
On the streaming services, as mentioned last week, Amazon now has season 3 of Baron Noir (France: Canal+). However, since then, it’s dropped the price tag, so now it’s free to Amazon Prime members, so there’s a significantly greater chance I’m going to watch it now.
Meanwhile, Netflix has The Eddy coming on Friday, but that’s a jazz musical, so there’s no chance I’m watching that, and Valeria is probably a bit too girly for me.
On regular old cable in the US, I Know This Much is True (US: HBO; UK: Sky Atlantic) is coming on Sunday, but that’s about it as all the US broadcasters have started postponing the shows they’ve already got in the can, to make sure they’ll actually have something new to air in autumn.
Baron Noir could well have his day this week…
The regulars
After the jump, as well as those two new shows, it’s the usual regulars: For Life, Mystery Road, One Lane Bridge and What We Do In The Shadows, as well as the season finale of Westworld. That said, I’ve not had the chance to watch much TV for the past two days, so I’ve not seen the absolute latest episodes of either For Life and What We Do In The Shadows, so I’m a bit behind.
Jon Tromans of the rather fun podcast Lockdown Land invited me onto his show this week so that I could give him and his listeners some recommendations for streaming service boxsets to watch while we’re all stuck in quarantine.
The categories he gave me were:
Action/Adventure
Fantasy Adventure
Comedy
Thriller
Scary/Horror
Pandemic
Can you guess what shows I opted for? You can find out by going to the podcast’s web page (although there are some surprises that aren’t listed there) or by listening below.
Just a word of warning: my usual inability to remember names struck twice. I actually meant Donald Glover, not Danny Glover, and Homeland not Homecoming. My brain, hey? I think Jon was kind enough to edit out the rest of my mistakes, though…
Are you thinking about starting Yoga? Have you tried it and failed miserably?
Help is at hand from Yoga teacher, leadership coach & author Jenny Fenig about having a go at Yoga at home for the first time.
Jenny gives us heaps of help and advice on how to start, what to wear and how we can start exploring the exercise and meditation aspects of Yoga.
