What TV/Netflix show are you currently watching? (Megathread)

Invincible Season 4 - I hate that this show keeps on being so enjoyable with its story and characters while having very underwhelming animation. The quality animation came out so briefly and they've taken so many shortcuts. Like this show should be so big, but the art is so stiff, so not what it could be. And it's not even just comparing to high quality anime we get on the regular, but there's western animation that is far above this. Castlevania was doing crazy stuff and I've seen people bring up stuff from television years ago like the 90's/00's Batman/Superman/Justice League show that had better art and more impactful animation, but a massively high budget show like Invincible in 2026, with it's 8 episodes (Long episodes or not) just can't do it? And the show has degraded in quality, I remember Season 1 being better, but it's like they streamlined things since then and it's just lead to lesser quality, which is just very frustrating.
I still really like this show, I'm looking forward to the couple seasons left, I'm glad it's around, I just wish the animation and art could match up to the rest of the shows quality.

I'm on episode 5, and this is pretty much where I'm at. I really like the show and the way it handles comic book tropes, but sometimes it feels really flat.
Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat - Bigger and more outlandish than Jury Duty in a way that makes the first season look quaint and simple. The whole premise is so much more complicated this time around, which lets them get away with being a bit wilder and more outlandish, but that also kind of makes it feel like subtraction via addition. Sure there's more, but what made the first season so good was how small and quiet and believable everything was. Still a terrific series, and I hope to see more.
Season 2 of The Pitt kind of does the reverse. It's still anxiety inducing and incredible, but there's no huge 'thing' that happens this season to rival the first season, making it feel a more subdued. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, it is just a different overall fell. And when you are the best how on TV by this wide of a margin, you can do that.
