"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?"

"Just re-watching the office as it is now 20 years old. Some great lines/scenes. Finchy's ""nearly done"" in the car park headlights is a classic."

"American Rust on Sky Atlantic. Starring Jeff Daniels. only seen the first episode, and on the fence. Sky Atlantic have form for good quality shows, which is the reason I gave this a go. Interestingly, on Rotten tomatoes it has a vastly different rating between the critics and audience vote."

"I liked Succession at the beginning when it looked like the old man might croak and when they went to Scotland for the wedding and Kendall had that car episode, and Chiv was having affairs, etc, there seemed to be stuff going on then, but now nothing much seems to happen, imo anyway."

If you prefer plot driven to character driven stories then Succession might not be your thing. The White Lotus has more plot twists but similarly dark comedy. Episodes run from 54-65 mins but there's only 6 episodes and it doesn't outstay its welcome.

"Succession is boring the tits off me. What exactly is it about, apart from a squabbling family? They need to bring in some separate story lines for the characters. Take Dallas for example, that was essentially about a squabbling family, but had a load of sub plots and different things going on all over. Might have a look a look at this White Lotus, but how long is each episode? Hopefully not a fucking hour?"

"Two episodes in on The White Lotus, loving it so far. Plus to best 2 pair of tits on screen at the moment in it. Just finished The Outsider, few episodes in I was thinking this is excellent but as it went on lost its way. If you liked true detective then you will like this.."

"ted fenton 2:01 Wed Dec 1 Fully agree Ted S2 is a bit far fetched; try the book it’s King at his most outlandish! S3 on the other hand is very good Almost a stand alone story, with a slim continuation of the original story! I’d recommend sticking with S2 just to complete it. But defo watch S3"

"100 foot wave on Sky is superb, even if you are not into surfing. Definitely worth a watch (six part series)."

"I like Succession, but can be a hard watch at times, a bit laborious with the full 1 hour episodes, sometimes seems like nothing is happening. The old man is by far the best character and steals every scene he's in. Quite fancy the daughter, Chiv."
