Would appreciate if you mention the OTT platform like everyone does for every post. It helps without having to ask this basic info. Thanks!

Me too.

Well, this is getting hand delivered by Emirates Airlines this weekend, so you can say that I'm excited.

Since my response to the question violated the forum's policies, my post has been removed. All I can say is that I don't think this is available on any Indian streaming channels; those who live abroad may check for themselves as I'm not sure about it given the abundance of other streaming services.

I have mentioned this numerous time here so will do it again for everyone's convenience.

Kindly check Justwatch app for shows and their streaming platforms. If it's not showing on the app means it's not available to stream. Every show isn't available to watch online and that's why it's better to just check the app.

Justwatch is not the end all.
It won't, for instance, list from BBC player in prime video.
Look for yes minister. You'll see. Which is why it's better to mention the platform or "other source".

I don't think @Harry10 meant it to be. The point he is making (I assume) is not everything might be on a streaming service; and even if it is, one can use apps like Justwatch or other means to figure that out. People might be using options that others might or might not be able to replicate. It's up to each of us to figure out where and how to watch it; and not depend on the reviewer on this thread to tell him/her how to do so.

Watched the full season of The Freelancer on Disney+Hotstar.

Typical Neeraj Pandey fare.

Mohit Raina is shaping up into a sizeable presence in the OTT space, coming on the heels of the success of Mumbai Diaries on Prime Video.

The storyline is fairly loose, with ample "creative liberty" taken by the makers in all aspects.

Acting-wise, kudos to the whole cast. Manjari Fadnis is back on screen after ages.

Overall, I would rate it at 3/5.

Dhootha - Telugu (Tamil audio)

The TV / Streaming shows thread (no spoilers please)-dhootha.jpeg

The plot was engaging when it started but kind of gets boring midway. It could have been executed in a better way. Too many mistakes and the cop who solves the case in minutes is something out of ordinary. Makes it quite unbelievable. They had the right recipe but spoiled in the making. The acting was poor as well.

Rating - 2.5/5 (Amazon Prime). Watchable but will test your patience after couple of episodes.

Flames season 4 on Prime
Rating 3/5

I very much liked Flames series. The season 4 continues their story. However this time, it sounds a bit predictable and boring. As if it has lost the charm of first 3 seasons.

Slow Horses

OTT : Apple TV+

Rating : 5/5

I'm rather surprised how I missed these series. Gary Oldman has proven time and again he is the master at espionage thriller movies. His typical dry brit humor is second to none.

This series is about a sub-group of defamed MI5 agents working out of a home called "Slough House" which is given all trashy work that is considered below the echelons of the real MI5 and headed by the ever charismatic Gary Oldman.

How this motley crew of agents get themselves wrapped into some shady business that they were not supposed to be involved forms the crux of the story.

I watched only 2 episodes of this 3-Season series and I'm already excited with the storytelling, pace, characterizations and photography. Simply outstanding.

Don't miss it if you love espionage thrillers.

Berlin

OTT: Netflix


I was really looking forward to this series on Netflix in the hope that Alex Pină would create Money Heist magic in this Spin-off but it is sadly a waste of time.

It was a good decision to make a spin-off of Pedro Alonso's Character - Berlin given that he was one of the most loved characters of Money Heist. Unfortunately, the amateurish end result in this series certainly leaves a high level of dissatisfaction. Even Pedro Alonso's charm couldn't fix it.

True Detective (S1)

Extremely late to the party but watched it over this week. Wow, what a mesmerizing series. Watching Mathew and Woody together in roles that seemed written for them was just amazing.

Hope Collin and Vince do good in the second season

2nd and 3rd seasons are totally worth it. This is the best detective series I've watched by a mile. Hope they'll release the 4th season soon.

Re: The TV / Streaming shows thread (no spoilers please)

Just finished seeing James Mays -Our Man in Japan. on Amazon Prime.

Have seen this series immediately after The Grand Tour- Eurocrash I genuinely felt the solo show way more funnier than The Grand Tour which, to be honest, has started to lose its shine. Purely my opinion and mine alone.

As for 'Our man in Japan' - I loved it all the more coz it evoked a lot of fond memories of my travel to Japan and gives me a good list of things I did not do last time around and a reason to go again.

In Comparison, Our Man in Italy is seeming to be a bit meh. Perhaps I should reserve my comments since I have only seen 1 Episode.

Some of their individual shows are really good (all three of them).

Japan series was really good and you are right on the Italy one - It's not as good as the first one.

Watch out for "Our man in India", which is releasing on Jan 4th or 5th.
