2. Catastrophe (on Amazon) and Sense8 (on Netflix) worth a look ...

I'm just 3 episodes into Catastrophe but am enjoying it, and I don't usually have much patience for rom-coms.

Sense8 is one I haven't started yet, but am looking forward to, even though the Wachowskis have been hit and miss for a while. I'm hearing good things from the people I know who've checked it out. JMS is going to be writing Red Mars for Spike (of all networks), so I kind of need this be evidence he will do a good job adapting Kim Stanley Robinson's story.

The Brink is making me laugh my ass off so far--it's like Dr. Strangelove, with lots of sex~~! MADem Jun 2015 #6

It reminded me of Dr. Strangelove, too! Silver Gaia Jul 2015 #7
