Thirded! Brilliant show. And it gets better each season. Season 4 only began production in August so you’ve probably got a good couple of months to catch up before it airs. :rocket::new_moon:

I’m keen on trying The Winchesters, I went all the way to S9 or something in Supernatural, when it was long past its best. Glad to hear it starts nicely.

I finished The Midnight Club. If you want a spooky but emotional, drama series, I think you’ll like it. Or if you liked Midnight Mass / The Haunting of Hill House.

Monarch = wanna be nashville, the cast doesnt pull you in, gave up after 2 episodes.
Quantum leap - its decent, its a more a background noise show
East New York - def gonna save up the episodes and watch it in a binge, the first one pulled me in completely
The rookie - back to being the rookie, its still good
Rookie Feds = skip it. The lead actress just works on my nerves
Transplant - Im still loving this show
The Resident - as sad as I am to admit it, its time to finish this off

Pepsi, Where’s My Jet?

Netflix | 17 November

The year was 1996, and the cola wars were raging. Pepsi needed something huge to compete with Coke so they rolled out their biggest campaign ever: “Pepsi Stuff” It featured a soon-to-be infamous commercial that claimed for 7,000,000 Pepsi points you could win a Harrier Jet (one of the most advanced military jets of the time). Pepsi execs assumed the astronomical “price” of the military plane was set high enough to indicate it was a joke, but ambitious & cunning college student John Leonard saw it as a challenge. Enlisting the help (and funding) of mountaineering buddy Todd Hoffman, the 21-year old hashed out a plan to score the grandest prize of all. What ensues is an outrageous goose chase for the infamous Harrier Jet and a legal battle with Pepsi that changed advertising forever.

Docuseries streams on Netflix from 17 November.
