For those of you who watch a lot of TV (I do), what are you
currently watching? And, if it's really good, recommend it to us

I just finished the second season of The Handmaid's Tale. Not as
good as the first season, I thought - the ending was
frustrating. But it's still a quality show.
Right now, though, I'm watching a show called Counterpart, which
I had never heard of. It's got J.K. Simmons and a bunch of
famous British actors in it. It's a scifi show, in which Simmons
is a really polite, gentile man who works in a mundane office
building for the U.N., which is involved in tons of super
secrets. Then one day, he's brought into a room and introduced
to someone that looks EXACTLY like him. The world has an
alternate dimension which everyone has a counterpart whose
personality and traits diverge from the person you are. So,
there are two J.K. Simmons in the show, acting against one
another - one kind and reasonable (a.k.a., Juno's dad), the
other a bit of an asshole (a.k.a., the guy from Whiplash) - and
they're both tugged into a crazy conspiracy filled with twisty
plots and assassinations and stuff.

It's pretty decent so far. The acting from Simmons is
phenomenal.
