Late to the party, I know. Read less than 2024, but it's not that bad. After stumbling on the first season of the Netflix series #DepartmentQ I've decided to read the books. That's most of what I've read this year. Still missing the tenth and last book of the series.

Interestingly enough, of these 15 books only one I physically own. The other 14 are #epub read on my phone, which I find quite convenient, thanks also to the #librera app from #FDroid.

Ten best TV/streaming drama series first seen in 2025

There are/were some absolutely stellar dramatic television and streaming series that either premiered or were first seen in 2025. Apple and Netflix dominate the list with eight of the Top 10.

As residents of “The Land of Enchantment” it is especially fun to see places we know in New Mexico on both Dark Winds and Plur1bus. With these two show being so well done, they generate a lot of pride, as well.

Kudos to all the shows listed and those associated with them.

Peace!

    When your body says, "shut up and sit down," well, you listen — so it's a "bed rest" kinda day.

    Did a proper binge of #DepartmentQ because #MatthewGoode can do no wrong as an actor.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. It was excellent and the wider cast was very very good. I hope Netflix doesn't do a “Netflix" and actually gives them a second season; it’s well deserved.

    Die Woche hatte es in sich. Neben viel Arbeit

    - Wellenbad der Gefühle
    - Entscheidung treffen müssen
    - mich alt und langweilig gefühlt (hält auch noch an)
    - Trauer um den Verlust meiner jugendlichen Abenteuerlust und Risikofreude
    - Akzeptanz des Laufs der Dinge

    naja, der letzte Spiegelstrich ist "in progress", wie es so schön neudeutsch heisst.

    Aber ein Highlight gab's, weil ich total vergessen hatte, dass ich das bestellt hatte 🤩.

    #DepartmentQ #OriginalSerie

    Just finished #departmentq, it reall was as good as people said it was. Hope it gets a second series.
    Heute habe ich es endlich geschafft, die #Netflix Serie "Departement Q" #DepartmentQ zu ende zu sehen. Angefangen habe ich eigentlich nur damit, weil ich im Trailer gesehen hatte, dass die Serie in #Schottland spielt. Dann stellte sich das ganze aber als verdammt guter Thriller heraus mit vielen unerwarteten Wendungen. Volle Empfehlung von mir! Tipp: im Original / OmU schauen, dann gibt es Schottischen Akzent und es wird klar, wer Engländer bzw. Schotte ist. Ich hoffe auf eine zweite Staffel.
    Started watching #departmentQ last night, and, to the extent that this kind of hyperbole is ever accurate about fictional TV characters I've known for less than two hours, I would die for Akram Salim.

    Just finished #DepartmentQ novel number 3: #aConspiracyOfFaith, by #JussiAdlerOlsen

    What a trepidatious read!!! 5 ⭐️ excellent service.
