vegas-voss Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Just finished watching the second season. Really good stuff. Spacey is magnificent. Just finished the first season this morning,straight onto the 2nd season it's brilliant tv and yes Spacey is magnificent I actually think he is at his best when he doesn't even say anything it's the facial expressions when he is having to listen to stuff he just can't be arsed withor doesn't like that are brilliant.

Ray Gin Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Finished Generation War. Also watched a debate after it questioning issues such as Jews being friends with officers in 1941 and the way Poles were portrayed as Anti Semites. Good drama worth watching. Watched the first two episodes of this at the weekend. Excellent. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Finally finished The Wire. Very good with the exception of the final episode. Breaking Bad or 24 next. Quote
The People's Chimp Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Missed the first few of Les revenants when it was on 4, so I waited till it came on netflix. Started watching last night. Utterly superb so far, this understated, relentless creepiness, the building tension and a superb Mogwai soundtrack all adding up to something really quite good. Quote
Gigolo-Aunt Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 (edited) Half way through Spiral series 4 - have enjoyed it. The female lawyer in it is also tremendous. Generation War was also very good although did find the ending a bit rushed. Edited May 12, 2014 by Gigolo-Aunt Quote
Rudi123 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Anyone notice in the sun today that brad pitt is being lined up to star in the next season of True detective?? Quote
Chester™ Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Anyone notice in the sun today that brad pitt is being lined up to star in the next season of True detective?? Interesting. I knew the plan was to have a new storyline with new detectives though. I wonder if Woody and McConaughey will still have some input? Quote
Rudi123 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Interesting. I knew the plan was to have a new storyline with new detectives though. I wonder if Woody and McConaughey will still have some input? Well the article said it was so popular that all the stars are queuing up to be in it,so a few more series looks likely which is good Quote
Grado Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Started Underbelly. Thought the first season was good im on the 2nd and not enjoying it as much. Quote
vegas-voss Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Started Underbelly. Thought the first season was good im on the 2nd and not enjoying it as much. It gets better,first 3 seasons are good then it gets a bit shit. Quote
Grado Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 It gets better,first 3 seasons are good then it gets a bit shit. There's only 3 seasons on netflix anyway. Quote
weststand93 Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Started Underbelly. Thought the first season was good im on the 2nd and not enjoying it as much. It does get better I'm up to season 6 Quote
vegas-voss Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 It does get better I'm up to season 6 I really didn't like Razor does the other one set around the 20's or 30's better ? Quote
weststand93 Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 I really didn't like Razor does the other one set around the 20's or 30's better ? 20s 30s around that time. I like it for how it was back then. I won't spoil anything but I'd say it's one if the best they have done. But that's IMHO. it's hard to take a Aussie actor seriously coz I can't stand there accent but this show is good Quote

Grado Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Season 2 seems to be a whos who of the final season of Spartacus. Quote
Feeno Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) A few of the biggies already mentioned, but watched the first episode of the new season of hanibal the other day, first season was class - hopefully the second continues in the same vein. Giving serious consideration to watching all the trailer park boys again, now that they are on Netflix. Always Sunny in Phildapelphia tae, class Edited May 13, 2014 by Feeno Quote

I'm up to season 8 of the second season. It has been fantastic. Probably my favourite thing on TV at the moment. Quote
The People's Chimp Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Can't believe I missed trailer park boys, watched the first few, it's so good. As for another huge mistake, missing les revenants which is absolutely sublime TV. Cannot recommend it highly enough. Quote
Ray Gin Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 I'm up to season 8 of the second season. Episode 8 Quote

Say What Again Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Just finished season 2 of Vikings. Even better than the first. Really looking forward to season 3 now. Quote
rudi must stay Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Looking for something new to watch. I've seen all the old favourites like 24, sopranos, lost etc just finished Fringe and currently up to date with Game of Thrones, the following and the blacklist. Anyone recommend something else? (Tried breaking bad but got to episode 5 and gave up!) If you like foreign tv, the swedish version of Wallender is very good. It's on Netflix Quote
Don Draper Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Just finished the first series of The Americans - really enjoyed it. Quote

jack D and coke Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 For anybody that's not tried Banshee. I'm nearly through season two and it's really enjoyable. Much darker than season one but still a good romp. Quote
Ray Gin Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Loving "Cosmos" on National Geographic. Documentary series explaining the intricate workings of the universe and how our understanding of it has developed through the years. Edited May 19, 2014 by Ray Gin Quote
...a bit disco Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 On the second episode of Penny Dreadful. I'll reserve judgement but seems promising so far. Quote
Everybody loves Baz Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 I've just started watching Veep for something to do. Turns out there's a lot of lol moments in it. Will keep watching. Quote
Grado Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) On season 3 of suit's great show the wire tribute they did was shite though. been told to watch Hells on wheels. Edited May 20, 2014 by Grado Quote

Grado Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Just finished From dusk till dawn season 1 its alright. Kept a few scenes from the movie and at the start it seemed like they were trying to be too much like the movie characters but it got better and became a lot different. Wilmer Valderamma ( thats 70s show Fez) was good in it. Some good actors in cameo roles Don Johnson The boy who played Dexters dad Chesty from the Pacific to name a few. Worth watching if you have Netflix. Quote

Gavman33 Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Half way through sopranos Anyone seen that French programme The Returned and if so any good? Quote
Ray Gin Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Anyone seen that French programme The Returned and if so any good? Tried watching the first couple of episodes but it seemed like a lot of pish tbh. Quote
Chester™ Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Anyone seen that French programme The Returned and if so any good? I thought it was excellent. Well acted and a great soundtrack to go with it. Quote
Say What Again Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Anyone seen that French programme The Returned and if so any good? I've watched the first four episodes this week. It's not bad, and now it's starting to come together I'm interested to see where it's going. I started watching it as it was recommended earlier in this thread. It's only 8 episodes too. Quote
Riddley Walker Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I thought it was excellent. Well acted and a great soundtrack to go with it. I'll second this. Interesting to see where it goes next. For those who like political dramas I'd recommend Borgen, a Danish show. Follows political journalists as well as the politicians and has none of the Sorkin cheese fest of West Wing. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 The last episode of The Sopranos on at 23.50 on Atlantic. Must have seen this a dozen times. Timeless. Quote
