Atlanta, just ended...


It's been a while since my season one post, but Atlanta (in Australia) over on the wonderful SBS On Demand just concluded.

SBS On Demand is currently smashing it with The Handmaids Tale continuing to shine and being renewed for a third season, and fast tracking from FX Atlanta. It's been a big week for Donald Glover, his music video for This is America has been a huge hit. He rose to number one on my Fresh Friday Countdown today.

The video has now been watched (as of right now) over 74 million times.

Not to Atlanta, it's been full of episodes which could be standalone shows, it's gone dark, it's gone rogue and it's been tough to watch at times this season.

Have I enjoyed it as much as last season? Quick answer, no. It's been hard to follow and before you know it an episodes end credits roll and you really wonder what you will get next week.

Now Donald has gone full SNL live and rose above his big Redbone era, Donald has yet delivered the news if season three will be made. It rates well (for FX) with On Demand viewing and with Donald the man of the moment right now I would say a third season may be on the way but pending Donald's schedule. No doubt he will tour and hopefully release a full length record this year.

Atlanta it's free and streaming the whole second season (titled Robbin') is up now on SBS On Demand. I'll leave you with my number one jam for the week and the news that it's time to go all Swedish on Sunday with a special Mini Sunday Spotlight, come back for a very Euro Vision weekend.
