So I just stumbled across something called Occupation: Rainfall, which is SciFi, made in Australia, set in Australia etc etc, so it ticks a lot of boxes for me.
Apparently it is a sequel to Occupation, and regardless of how these things actually rated with reviewers, I feel like I've missed something by being unaware they even came out.

And this is almost certainly because I've made a concerted (and broadly successful) effort for over a decade to avoid ads.

How does everyone here find TV, Movies, Music etc that may be of interest to you?

Just turn on the idiot box and put up with the spew?

TV and movies is a lot of word of mouth for me. If I hear about something that might be interesting I’ll look more into it.

I watch anime and a lot of the suggestions come from forums or online word of mouth.

Videos from YouTube and Nebula play into suggestions as well.

For music it’s pretty wild. Because I’m open to a lot of things I’ll take any source. I read a few blogs, visit a few forums, watch videos, work from ratings lists or even pick it up from being used in things. Discovered a new band this morning based on looking at upcoming gigs in my area for example.
