The Orville Season Two - Thoughts?
That's an early Black Mirror episode.
Do you get any British TV from the last 30 years?

I learned nerd for this.
It could be. I was talking about a documentary about Ray Kurzweil. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Kurzweil
I want to say it was The Singularity or Transcendent Man.

Another “britcom” I love: Posh Nosh. Cracks me up every time. Huge fan of Lenny Henry’s Chef, too.
I’ve also seen a few episodes of Whites, but it hasn’t quite grabbed me. One of the costars Darren John Boyd of Spy and the original Dirk Gently’s Holostic Detective Agency- both good.
Which of course reminds me of the Hitchhiker ‘s Guide series (loved it).
And right now, I’m eagerly awaiting Good Omens, and would love to see Neverwhere. Don’t know if/when for either.

The music in this episode blew me away. I really expected Laura's song at the bar to be something contemporary to 2015, not a 30 year old piece from America. At first, I thought it was just an obscure reference. Then, at the reprise at the end, the meaning behind the song choice hit me.
For those that didn't catch it, the song is from the soundtrack to The Last Unicorn. If you haven't seen that movie, go watch it first. For those that have: [sblock]The song is the one that Lir sings to Amalthea. It's a song about a relationship that is doomed to fail because the object of his affection isn't human and is incapable of reciprocating his love.[/sblock]

Forgot Vicar of Dibley, Fry and Laurie, Twenty Twelve and W1A!
I also catch a fair number of the UK’s murder mystery shows too. Besides various takes on Poirot and Holmes, Father Brown & Death In Paradise are among my faves, and Dad’s a big fan of Midsommer Murders- I especially liked the one with the guy getting killed by poisonous mushrooms.
...and to think WE export shows like Baywatch and Dallas.
