@sorteddan yeah Fallout and Landman are brill, particularly the latter.

I’d love to start X-Files over as it goes but I reckon I have zero chance of convincing the missus tbh. Which ep did you watch btw?

@graymamba
I think it was called Home (Some incestuous hillbilly types) ... Was in a YouTube rabbit hole and some vid said that was the scariest TV episode ever. Not sure that it was but I enjoyed it nonetheless as I don't think I've watched any of the original series since??? ...maybe the 90s!!?

I plan on watching Episode 19 of Samurai Jack followed by Zatoichi At Large and then diving into Blue Eye Samurai ,Season One.

@sorteddan I probably watched it at some point but it doesn’t ring any bells. Pretty sure I watched all Mulder & Scully eps… but I did fall off a bit towards the end when the partnership fell apart and Reyes and… someone else started taking point. Strangely enough, I would be quite interested to watch those later seasons now though.

The second season of Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft ended up just as enjoyable as the first, but for very different reasons. Lara takes a bit of a back seat, acting as a framing device for an incredibly compelling and emotional story about a family of ancient gods who live among us. When a philanthropist attempts to harness these gods' power, Lara and her friends get involved and spark an adventure which ultimately tackles the concepts of "ownership" and cultural appropriation. Hayley Atwell and the core cast still deliver, but it's newcomer O-T Fagbenle who gives the stand-out performance as the trickster god, Eshu. I also appreciated that, despite the shift in focus, there were dozens more Tomb Raider easter eggs, including a perfect deadpan "no" in the final episode which made me laugh out loud.

It's a real shame that Netflix didn't order any more seasons, but I'm very pleased with what we got, and it makes for a great continuity bridge. Here's hoping for a Blu-Ray release someday soon!
