I liked her in Cleverman and Mystery Road so I might check it out. Also Clarence Ryan is a legend.

Gonna Mow You Down
I'm 4 episodes into Alien: Earth and despite it suffering from the post-Prometheus obsession with exploring convoluted pseudo-philosophical plot elements that plagues the franchise I'm enjoying it so far.
Although I'm a bit unconvinced by the depiction of the xenomorph. Feels less like the smart hunter of old and more like a big dumb killing machine.

Been sick so I used my downtime to wrap up the last long-running show I was watching, Vikings. Decided to finally commit to watching Justified now that my slate is cleared.
Edit: I'm done with the first 3 seasons now. It's a solid show, even though it's kinda like My Name Is Earl meets Walker Texas Ranger lmao. I'm wondering when the big tone/quality shift happens though.

Just to break up all the Justified I've been (pretty much exclusively) watching, I randomly started this Warrior series. Apparently it's based on a project Bruce Lee was working on before he died and it's executive produced by his daughter.
It's about a Chinese martial artist who travels to San Francisco in the 1870's to find his sister and gets involved in organised crime in Chinatown. The main character's fighting style is blatantly inspired by Bruce Lee which is fun, and the actor is Andrew Koji who ruled in Gangs of London and will be playing Ryu in the new SF movie, so this is kinda like a pre-hype for that haha. So far the action rules.

I've mostly enjoyed watching Justified but man season 5 was a struggle. You got Michael Rapaport stinking up the screen, Ava's prison arc feels poorly written, the main plot is boring and Raylan is pretty insufferable at this point. Boyd Crowder is damn near carrying the whole show's watchability on his shoulders now.

i've been watching last one laughing, which puts ten comedians in a room for 6 hours with the single goal of not laughing, if they laugh twice they're eliminated. really fun concept, would recommend the UK, canada and australia versions.

The Canadian version is terrible, even Colin Mochrie couldn't save that. The UK version however has a really good mix of people.
I don't remember watching the Aussie version, but the comedian list is pretty forgetful so that could be a reason.
