The Real Maroonblood Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'm currently watching nothing, having just finished Game of Thrones. Which in my opinion really is the best of all time. So was thinking about buying a new series. The Sopranos, House of Cards, The Wire etc. What would you recommend? I have never seen the remake of "House of Cards." The original was excellent followed by "To Play the King." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Gin Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Gomorrah has been the best thing on tv this year imo.Absolutely brilliant show and for anybody that never seen it and likes mafia shows they should check it out on Sky demand as the whole series is on there. Yeah it was excellent. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Gin Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I watched The Returned after it was recommended here (please not by you or Taz, he says without checking) and wished for the end from halfway through. I'm convinced if that was in English, from ITV, we'd all agree it was pish. But hey, it's subtitled. Coooool. I lasted one episode. Seemed like a load of pish and I had no interest in watching it any further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf's Mate Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Marco Polo looks interesting. Is there a new season of Justified starting next year? Hope so. And, anyone know when The Newsroom season 3 will be available on iTunes? Justified is brilliant viewing. I watched it a while back and then got the Mrs into it and watched it again. New season starts in the new year however it's the last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegas-voss Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Yeah it was excellent.

Carl Fredrickson Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Just finished both series of The Fall. Quite enjoyed it. Quite gritty if a wee bit predictable. Tried Marco Polo but switched off halfway through the first episode. Broadchurch started last night - taping them and watching them all over a few days. On the hunt for the next show until Broadchurch ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primavera Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 The Following isn't that great. I ditched it a few episodes into the second season. I ditched it halfway through the first, promised a lot but it was a bit silly. Going to try Gomorrah, downloading first episode but think sleep needed first.

Ron Burgundy Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Reading folks thoughts on Marco Polo, I'll shelve that idea and finally get round to The Following instead. I watched all of Marco Polo and it was pretty tame. I'd expected huge gory Mongol battles but it wasn't to be. Where are you lot watching Gommorah.? Netflix?
