"Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much. Breaking Bad, Homeland done Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?"

"Johnny - Yep, it's only 20 episodes catch up so I'm gonna stick with it. I am very fussy on what I start on, if I'm literally going to invest many hours watching a show it can't just be okay, like many of them are."

"Started on Netflix's The Kominskey method, comedy with Michael Douglas, after a chum reco'd it. Not hilariously funny by any means, but a nice very watchable sitcom type, a little like Afterlife that Gervais did. This is written by the same geezer that did Two an a half men. Anyone else seen it?"

"Manuel I am watching succession as well after reading the reviews on here, I felt the same but it does get better, it’s good but not great in my opinion."

"Finished season 2 of Jack Ryan last night, very good again if not a little far fetched at times, John Krainski is turning into a real star but it's still almost impossible not to just think of him as Jim Halpert"

"The trailer for the fourth series of The Expanse, due in December, is now out. If you like a bit of hard sci-fi, it's good fun. Fourth series of Fargo has also now been filmed, out next year."

"Felt like the 3rd season of the fall wasn't that great, but there's every chance that was purely because the first 2 series were so fucking good I expected too much."

"The Fall is outstanding. Just started on Succession after reading how great it is on here. So far it' s a pile of pointless, pretentious shite. Can only assume it gets much better??"

Mallard 6:38 People just do nothing is brilliant. The episode when they opened the club was superb.

"Loved Vikings at the start but its gone a bit downhill in the last couple of seasons and seems to be being mercifully put to bed after the upcoming one. Although i have read they have a spinoff in the works and at least another one planned. If you like Vikings also give ""the last kingdom"" a look, its a similar story but is much more weighted to the side of the British"

"the outtakes are even funnier for Eastbound, there's some incredible ones between ferrell, Robinson and Mcbride. I dont use Netflix or Amazon or anything like that, just download everything from one of the torrent sites. 1337x usually my preferred one"
