Anyone watched Yellowjackets?

Just finished s2 - good show, not the fastest paced thing.

Very grim in places.
We just sort of stopped watching half way through series 2 and have never really cared about what happened enough to start up again.

It’s got very dark and a bit trippy midway through the second season that’s a definite.
S3 is out next year - it’s an interesting idea for a story.

I see, we had it through Amazon as a paid for bolt on.

With Sky though, I'd suggest that it doesn't come with the basic package and that you'd have to have the movies?

Paramount+ is 9n offer for £34.95 for a year, 50% off offer from £69.90. Is it worth it for what's on there?

£35 for Blue Bloods, all Star Trek including Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks, Rabbit/Hole, Yellowstone, 1923, 1883, Tulsa King, Deadwood, Bass Reeves, Your Honor, Cheers, Frasier (pretend the reboot isn't there) and Dexter I'd say yes.

for £35 I'm not sure you can go wrong - will have to sign up for that

Tulsa King

Not a sly fan but he really fits well in this!
Good Mob caper.

Just taken up this offer and binged the first 6 eps of Tulsa King yesterday (thanks Pidsyrolleyes). I tried Yellowstone first but it was all a little bit too serious for the festive season.

Is it me or does Paramount continuously stutter/start all the time? Seems like they don't have enough bandwidth for their set up.

yes TK is very good isn't it. Not noticed any issues with P+ stuttering all the time, or at least no moreso than D+ or Amazon

Give Yellowstone a proper chance. One of the best programs to be released in the past few years for me.
First couple of episodes are character builders then the wheels fall off and it gets very good.

I can’t access it since getting a Sky Q box last week. Sky claim it’s a known issue. Bit of a bugger as been watching Bass Reeves and just finished S1 of Yellowjackets so can’t watch S2 atm.

I’ve only just recently watched Yellowstone and the 2 spin-offs. Definitely worth a look.
