I've heard there is going to be another season... but not positive.
It's possibly my favorite show ever.... it's at least up there somewhere in the top 5 for sure.
Heads of State on Prime, not bad at all. Could be edited better for a better mix of humor and serious, but all-in-all, quite a romp with Idris Elba (I admit, we turned it on because of him) and John Cena as the actor-turned-POTUS.
Have seen much worse at my local movie theater volunteer gig this year.

Watched 3 movies over the weekend and two of them had Idris Elba in them. Watched Sonic 3, Heads of State and the Minecraft movie. Sonic 3 was clearly the best. Heads of State was at least entertaining, even though I called the ultimate villain as soon as the action started. Jack Quaid has a small role, but he's pretty funny in it. And the Minecraft movie was just woof. Glad my kids had no desire to go to the theater to watch it.
Wait, what? Elba was in the Minecraft movie?
I'm a hard grader, but I loved the latter. Dennis. Go now, Dennis.
Have to say though, not many shows could pull off an entire episode based on one conversation like The Bear did. I think what makes it so special is that they're not afraid of taking the time in scenes to convey the emotions on a deeper level. It's rare, but even more rare to do it and not lose their audience in the process.
My wife has gotten me to start watching Sirens on Netflix. It seems to be pretty good but I've only watched 2 episodes. She's excited about it.
Season 4 is more like season 1 and 2. There is some toxicity but its kind of the family thing. Season 3 seemed too artsy, was a very odd season.
If you like British crime shows, check out Dept Q. Actually more Scottish but still an enjoyable first season. Netflix.
May want to put on subtitles; sometimes they are hard to understand.
by being WAY behind I have a lot of choices, just finished a season of the Punisher and now my daughter and I are working through a bunch of seasons of the Rookie. the cop show with "Rainer Shine" from modern family.
I've liked all four seasons. I get why it can turn some people off, because it's definitely different than your average show as it can really dwell on things, but part of its appeal to me is that nothing gets wrapped up neatly in a two minute conversation.
