RECOMMENDED // MARTY KEARNEY WHAT TO WATCH...
THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT // Although this dramedy was awesome it was still really frustrating to watch in a bittersweet kind of way. It made me miss traveling even more as much of this great series was shot in Airplanes and Airports and on location in Italy and Bangkok, granted I have never been to either nor do any of those appeal to me but hey beggars cannot be choosers. I started this thinking this was going to be a rom com kind of show but fifteen minutes in and it was something different, something much better, darker and sinister but it still felt light and breezy. In A Golden Globe nomination role Kaley Cuoco from the big bang theory stars as a Cassie Bowden an alcoholic flight attended who goes on a date with one of her passengers only to wake up with him the next morning with his throat slashed in the bed beside her. Leaving the scene of the crime the series follows our antihero in a series of misadventures while she tries to solve the murder. Most of the supporting cast are recognisable, you have Rosie Perez who was amazing in last year’s Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey, Michael Huisman from Game Of Thrones, TVs Girls Zosia Mamet, fresh of his return from Greys Anatomy T.R Knight plays Cuoco’s brother, Greenleaf’s Merle Dandridge and putting In a Scene Stealing performance as lovable assassin Miranda Croft is Michelle Gomez from DR Who and Chilling adventures of Sabrina. With only 8 episodes this is easily binged in one weekend.
BETTER THINGS // On the BBC iPlayer is this hidden gem. It stars Pamela Aldon as mother of three and working Actress dealing with life the good and the bad. Her two older kids are brats but very likable and the youngest one is an over sensitive dote, her mother played by living legend Celia Imrie is golden in this. It is an easy watch with some LOL moments. It is a show you can have on in the background but still take in what’s going on, it’s been a hit with critics some even going on to say it’s an experience like nothing else on television. I am currently on season 2 and it makes this current lock down that little bit more bearable, look out for guest stars Sharon Stone, Molly Shannon, David Duchovny and Julie Bowen.
