What TV shows are you watching?

So I'm still stuck in my nostalgia phase. Finished the first season of Magnum PI. I'm not sure why people assumed that Magnum was loaded. Private Investigators did not earn that much. Not even in the 80s. Higgins was house sitting for some billionaire. And Magnum was just freeloading at the house Higgins was looking after. The Ferrari was never his. Guess most folks never watched the pilot. Or just plain forgot.

 

I'm looking for a show that aired in the 70s. Possibly 80s in South Africa. It was called Rich man Poor man. No luck finding episodes online. Just snippets on youtube.

My mum bought the "Rich Man Poor Man" novel in London for our flight to JNB when we first ever went to live in SA. They confiscated it at SA customs because it was on the banned list, then a month later it came on SA tv!

 

1976 . . . .

Finally got to see the last two episodes (S3) of The Fall.

 

One sick f*** - including the lawyer/solicitor that thinks he’s capable of getting someone off on a technicality.

 

Reminds me of the drivers that are guilty of hitting/killing a cyclist/pedestrian from behind, while intoxicated, but has a cunning lawyer that gets them off.

Enjoyed watching Burden of Truth . 10 ep series. In general, i enjoy limited series. Writers forced to be creative over a compact arc, not an arc that milks all the cash cows in the known universe.

Not sure if someone has mentioned A series of unfortunate events? I’m digging the whole fairytale vibe of the series.
