Finished This City is Ours last night, that’s bang on pitched at what I enjoy and thought it was excellent (once I got past the fact the lead reminded me of Dean Gaffney)
Yay. Tribe with Bruce Parry is back. Absolutely love that program!
Well I have to say the Angolan tribes methods of child dentistry in the second episode was something I won't forget In a hurry! I was quite literally hiding behind the sofa. Shocking stuff!
So having not started these the order should be 1883, 1923, Yellowstone ?
Chronologically, but it doesn't matter much - they are pretty much self-contained. And it's like it's completed. They are doing a 1940s one, for example.
BTW there's also a spin off from 1883 called Bass Reeves: Lawman, which is very watchable.
I personally don't think it matters, I ended up watching episodes of 1883 when they were released in between episodes of, I think series 2 or 3 of yellowstone then 1923 first series was during the break before the final epsidoes of yellowstone. What I did appreciate was some of the yellowstone cold openings that harked back to the prequels as I knew the characters featured as I'd watched those series already (this applies to 1883)

I watched 1883 then season 1 of 1923 before starting Yellowstone. I’m on Season 4 of Yellowstone now so I’ll watch that before going on to Season 2 of 1923.
I have to say, I found the 1883 and 1923 series very good. I think they’re far more watchable than Yellowstone. Main reasons in the spoiler that follows:
I’m finding it very difficult to give a shit about anyone in Yellowstone (apart from Jimmy, maybe) or what happens to them, their ranch or anyone connected with them. Fuck them. They’re a bunch of c***s. And not in a way that you can become invested in them, like Tony Soprano or Walter White. They’re just loathsome and have been from the start. In particular, Beth, John and Rip are utterly revolting people and any attempt to justify their behaviour or humanise them just rankles. I genuinely hope they all die. Pricks. 😂
Add to this that the show insists on showing ten minutes of rednecks making horses dance or spin around or stop quickly *every *single *episode, (which has got very old very quickly) and as a result I’m finding Yellowstone a bit of a slog.
Oh yeah, almost forgot. When the protestors turned up and the ‘Vegan in chief’ (the woman out of Coyote Ugly), after being shut down by the most pathetically simplistic argument against veganism I’ve ever heard, took John up on his offer to check out the ranch, I turned to ladyromford and said “If he ends up shagging her, this programme has disappeared up its own arsehole.” I don’t think I need to say what happened next. 🙄
Looking forward to getting past this season so I can return to 1923.
Despite all this, I’ll probably still watch season 5 after 1923 though!
I don’t know how to quote without posting that spoiler but I would like to say it made me laugh as a critique of a very popular but ultimately plotless yet fun show. Good work 👏
Kinahan: The true story of Ireland's mafia. 3 partner on iPlayer and a good watch. For those that watch Kin, the Kinsella family is supposedly based on the Kinahans.
Seen the first 2 and looking forward to watching the 3rd.

Binged first 4 episodes yesterday and I said exactly the same to my missus.

My mum was a Gaffney from North Roscommon, the bit that splits Leitrim in two by Loch Allen.

That was a gift from the affluent tribal chief. 'What should I do with it?' uttered a bemused Bruce Parry
The Bondsman on Prime is pretty good. Watched the first 3 so far. Kevin Bacon plays a Bail Bondsman who is killed and brought back to life by the devil to hunt down absconding demons. Blackest of black comedy. Bit of a big budget Stan Vs Evil.

' Just kill it ' came the reply!
Geoff Bell makes a brilliant horrible c**t.
