Only Murders in the Building on Disney+.

Stars Steve Martin, Martin Short & Selena Gomez.
Co-written by Steve Martin.
Cast also includes Nathan Lane, Tina Fey and Sting (playing himself)

A little bit quirky but cast is great.
Based around the 3 leads and their podcast about a murder in their building.

I watched The Block tonight, what did he do?
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

A coupe of good ones on the abc:

Capital - based on the novel by John Lanchester (sp?). Ripping book and the 4-part series is really well done.

Roadkill - Hugh Laurie as a bit of a rogue politician. Pretty good so far.

Agree about it being intense. It’s a show that demonstrates how you can have drama without over the top effects.
Second episode went downhill fast, just an over the top episode that didn’t go anywhere.

It seems the series will all be seperate stories each episode just related to bushfires. See what happens over the rest of them.

I'd happily feed Georgia into a wood chipper. She shits me big time.

Only watched half an episode of SAS, wasn’t tempted to watch again.

Was funny to see former professional athletes getting scared of an ice bath…
