PolerFace - Two episodes down, It's still good but feels like a notch down from S1.

Yeah, S1 was more serious, less over the top and had quite a few top notch episodes like the BBQ joint one, the trucker or the one with Joseph Gordon Levitt. S2 so far has been over the top, forcefully funny and in general worse.
So help me Todd : On Hotstar, a lighthearted detective comedy from the mother son duo.

In S1 stories were the star, Protagonaist was a side kick. The balance seems to have changed in S2.

Plots too were a bit elaborate in S1.

MobLand S01 - Episode 8... the twists and turns! Someone has nicely turned up the flame now... things are about to explode soon.

Also, scenes between Harry and Eddie are always super intense. Tom Hardy's acting is superb. The man has a seriously cold, unnerving stare.

Indeed the British know how to do it..
Mobland is shaping up pretty well....
Tom Hardy's character is the pivot tbh.

Do check Taboo (2017) it's fantastic, also stars Tom Hardy in the main lead

Will definitely try Taboo, thanks!

Coming back to MobLand... I'm waiting for Harry (Tom Hardy) to finally shred his calm demeanor and explode very soon! His entire calm yet passively aggressive persona so far is like the quiet lull before the storm.

Andor : Season 2
What Tony Gilroy has pulled off is nothing sort of monumental. A prequel of a prequel which cannot get better than this. That ending was something. I will not be able to rest until I finish re-watching Rogue One.
PS : I just wish Andor never ended.

Don't judge me please. I've been hearing a lot about this show, but as someone who hasn't watched ANY of the Star Wars franchise movies or shows, can I watch this? Or will I be completely lost?

Yes, you can watch this without the others.
If you are worried about the order then Andor Seasons 1 and 2 sets up Rogue One : A Star Wars story which in turn leads to the OG threequel from George Lucas.
The entire franchise in chronological order -
