Not sure if anyone has watched the 2017 to 2024 Seal Team TV series. I had not, but downloaded all 7 seasons a few days ago and am binge watching through this stretch of nasty cold weather we are having.
Depending on your tastes, this is no Driving Miss Daisy but if you like action and the good guys winning, with some drama thrown in to broaden the overall attraction, for what it's worth, I highly recommend. JMO

Haven't watched this one but have watched some similar content. It's available on Paramount + which you can get a 7 day trial off through Amazon Video . Might just check it out. There are a dozen or so add on channels available with 7 day trial and I may work my way through them over the winter. Sorry about your weather but not too sympathetic I'm afraid. We have been well below normal for a few weeks now although it's only 33/44 today calling for 39 next day or so.
If you haven't already check out Warfare on Amazon. Really well done and researched. Based on a true situation with input and advice from the Navy Seals actually involved in the situation. Quite gritty and I would say very realistic. One of those that you are still thinking about for a few days after watching.

 
Next time you feel like complaining that it's cold out......remember this . Dec 10 2025 Whitehorse Yukon. (It's only -38c here and even the-48c wind chill isn't as low as the ambient there ) . Cold start to the winter up this way this year.
A thermometer at Whitehorse resident Barrett Horne's home bottomed out at -50 C on Wednesday morning. The extreme cold spell is expected to last for a while yet in the Yukon. (Barrett Horne) they ended up hitting-53c

I like David Boreanaz. He's a good actor. Liked him on "Bones".
For anyone who has Prime and haven't seen this. The Expanse series is amazing. I'm watching it again now for the 4th time.

It's been abnormally cold here also. We've already had well over a foot of snow as well. Not normal for my area of southern Ontario. Today calling for a high of -3 when the average for today is +3
That's not too bad. We also have been below the seasonal average. Only - 38/45WC this morning whereas the normal low is -28 . Might have to dig out my big coat today......... ;) stay warm !

6 degrees is a lot of difference. I wasn't complaining, I was stating a fact. And that was today. We had a high of -7 the other day. A difference of 10 degrees.
The snow every day is worth complaining about however. I have a lot of nothing better to do with my time. ;)

Think I recommended this series to members a long time ago. Agreed. Best Sci-fi going and not just saying that because one of my ex girlfriends was the costume designer... lol...

Agree on the snow... I have only plowed twice this season so far but we typically haven;t had snow like we use to get for a lot of years.

Ya, you did. I had to re-enforce your suggestion. A lot of it was filmed in Toronto. You can see the Roy Thomson Hall in many of the earth scenes. Was your GF from Toronto? Not that that matters as costumes can be designed anywhere.

Great series and a lot of the production took place in Canada.
