The only show I am watching is physical 100. One thing that caught my eye is how respectful, polite & encouraging the contestants are. Barely any trash-talking & insults.
I also like , it is not just a game of strength of stamina, but also teamwork & tactics. Its sometimes MORE important how to use your strength. In one game, where they push a boat, only one team realise that the friction between the boat & floor make it hard to push, & decided to lift the boat instead. Also the same team realized how the pulley that was originally helping them get worse as the length shorten, to decide to push the boat instead. Resulting in them easily win.

When I am not watching, I find myself you tubing some of the contestants.

My favorite is Song-Bin aka Iron bin, who wore an ironman helmet (with approval from Marvel) in his gold medal run in 2018.

I've heard Yoshihiro Akiyama is one of the contestants. He was a very successful an popular fighter who fought in a number of high profile organizations (UFC, K1, ONE, etc). He was a pretty big celebrity in both Japan and S. Korea, I was a fan of him when he was still fighting. I've wanted to check the show out to see how a dude close to 50 does in the competition!

Finished The Three Body Problem TV series. A monumental achievement by Tencent for fans of the book. Low budget at times, but they got it when it counted.

I heard it was becoming a show but didn't realize it was already out. Either way the books are on my to read list so I'll wait on the show.

Have a coworker that wanted me to watch Lost so figured I'd give it a shot. Watched about half the first season and it's fine but taking a break. Not a big fan of 20+ episode seasons.

With that on hold, figured I'd make use of my Apple TV sub and ended up going with Echo 3. Only seen one episode but seems decent enough.

While long the first 3 seasons are great television. After that the number of episodes get shorter. Stick with it.

I am watching "The Staircase" on HBO Max. It's ok. It's a mini-series. 8 episodes and I have seen the first 2. Based on a true story. It's like watching a Dateline or 48 hours played out in a TV show.

Funny because I watch F1 but have no interest in watching Drive to Survive. I watch MotoGP and I think they did a similar show. Also something not interested in. Guess I'd rather just watch real races instead.
 
Need a show.

Huh.....gonna have to look around.

Just finished 1883 (Yellowstone prequal to 1923 prequal....errr something like that)

Got the Last of Us and Mandalorian but want something to binge.

F1 Drive to Survive.
Orphan Black.
Halt and Catch Fire.
Banshee.

Obviously kind of hard to suggest since we know not all the shows you have seen.
