The Penguin is great - proper HBO prestige type show. Craig Zobel directed the first two episodes (at least) - he's a name I recognise from Mare of Easttown. No idea why they cast an attractive Irish guy to play an 'unattractive' American guy, but it only distracted me a bit in episode one.

Taskmaster Australia is out now too. It's got way too many ad breaks, but it's not like I'm watching it being broadcast, and the host has said he "doesn't give a shit" if it's pirated (unlike the Taskmaster NZ host, who's said we're all going to hell). It's a good alternative / addition to Taskmaster UK, which is also on now and is still watchable, but has been on the wane the past few years.
