I watched The Gorge last night. "Two operatives are appointed to posts in guard towers on opposite sides of a classified gorge." 6.7/10. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13654226/

 I downloaded about 50 movies and will probably watch another one here shortly.

Not TV series, but I watch a couple of Youtube channels that are a running series of car stuff.

Vice Grip Garage is a guy that finds old cars sitting up for years (some for decades) and revives them where they sit and tries to drive them back to his home base. He started in Minnesota but moved to Tennessee for better climate year-round. Good clean entertainment.

A similar themed channel, based in Texas, is Flying Sparks Garage. A husband and wife team works on various projects....cars, trucks, tractors, boats, planes ans a semi. They just finished a multi-episode series reviving an 80's era Peterbuilt rig and converted it to RV status instead of commercial so they could pull the 40' enclosed trailer (retired Red Cross blood drive trailer) they've been converting to a race car hauler/camper rig.

If you're a car guy, it's good stuff.

If you're a Helen Mirren fan, pox on you if you're not, she did a dark TV detective series called Prime Suspect set in the 1990s.

Also, rather light hearted private eye genre, is the Jane Seymore series Harry Wild. 

Untamed, about murders in Yosemite Park, is a limited series, 6 episodes.  They could spin off short episodes with either the lead male or female character.

I like the best of the year Real Mechanics React videos and Customer States videos by Just Rolled In on YouTube. They have videos all the time about cars that people bring in, customer states car has this problem, and holy crap, you wouldn't believe what's really wrong with it. Here are the latest videos from each channel. I haven't even watched them yet. I either watch a few at a time or just watch the best of the year.

War of the Worlds on Amazon Prime. It didn't have a rating at IMDb when I looked earlier today. Now it's at 3.4 and rising. If I knew it was that low I would have skipped it. I'm 15 minutes in and will kill the whole 2 hours of my time.

The War of the Worlds gets a big fat thumb down. I finished The Fantastic Four: First Steps (7.4/10) earlier after seeing half of it the day before. It was was okay, but not great, and I just watched Predator: Killer of Killers (7.5/10) which I thought was really good. It's an animated movie, so some people will be prejudiced against it. But it's the the sixth film in the Predator franchise, eighth overall counting the 2 Alien vs. Predator movies, and better than average.

The Fantastic Four movie took place on Earth-828, not Earth-616, AKA the "Sacred Timeline", the main universe depicted in the MCU. It's a retro-futuristic 1960s looking scene. They'll be back a week before Christmas 2026 in Avengers: Doomsday, when the Avengers, Wakandans, Fantastic Four, New Avengers (Thunderbolts), and the X-Men team up to face Doctor Doom. In that universe Tony Stark is Doctor Doom, not Iron Man. Confused yet? Join the crowd. I watched Thunderbolts* (7.3/10) a few days ago and liked it, but I like most of the Marvel superhero movies I see.
