CraigSN1 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'm off work, the xmas shopping is done and the bird is working. I need something to watch and keep me going *insert porn jokes here* Anything along the lines of the following; Breaking Bad The Wire Sopranos A game of thrones I think im all out of decent shows to watch, I've tried many others to differing levels of success. What to watch now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester™ Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Good call, a sadly overlooked show nowadays. Indeed. The focus is all on David Simon's 'other' series. There are/were some fantastic performances and storylines in Homicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Dave Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Trust me they're all worth it. Deadwood has the best use of swearing EVER in a TV programme. Justified is just brilliant and Sherlock is quality. Agreed re Deadwood. And if you listen carefully in one of the episodes, you will hear the Hearts song getting played in Al Swearengen's saloon.

Tommy Wiseau Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Can only echo Deadwood suggestions. It is easily one of the 2 or 3 greatest TV dramas ever imo. Just such a shame they never got the chance to see it through until the end. Homeland Arrested Develoment Band Of Brothers The Pacific Tremendous also.

It was an adaptation of the original., so wasn't simply a carbon copy in English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
