"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?"

Not a box set but getting right into Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown on nerflix. A very watchable well travelled chef who tours some of the worlds greatest cities in his own way. I was looking forward to going to Porto this summer(obviously a no go now) but he makes it look a must. A really good travel/cooking presenter well worth a look. RIP

Not a series but Jim Jefferies has a new special dropping on netflix today. If its anything like his standup tour that i went to see in December it's definitely worth watching.

"I agree with manuel. stick with it as mike improves it when he returns, I also agree about the main character being unlikable but I also felt the same way about his brother, though it's probably because of how good the actor is playing him."

"ted - I watched it just recently after finally watching BB last year. I think many have a similar opinion that it's decent but nowhere near as good as BB (but what is?) It's a bit slow moving at first but does get better when Mike, Salamanca, his 2 nephews and Gus come into it, so you learn more about their characters before BB, IMO for that reason alone it is worth watching. The biggest dislike I had is that the Saul's character is an absolute prick most of the time and usually very annoying, so you might have to overcome that. His elder brother, a top lawyer, is in it a lot who is a good character. Season 6 is going to be the last one, probably out next year."

So after watching a couple of episodes of Better Call Saul after Breaking Bad we gave up on it but we're going to take advice and give it another go. Any thoughts ?

What do you do next after finishing the Sopranos? I suggest going back to the beginning and starting again. Maybe give yourself a mini series as a small break first.

New series of Condor is out. Very much enjoyed the first season. Better than Jack Ryan and on a similar theme.

Billions was turd. Half decent idea for a plot which got weaker and weaker Just watched Sinner 3 and then watched Reckoning. Reckoning has to be the worst thing I’ve ever bothered with. Stopped watching Designated Survivor when the gay black bloke was taking a length up his arse. Is that something someone woke like Swiss would revel in Agree with Trunds about the miserable Homeland

Swiss - Agree. Should have wrapped it up last season really. Gone stale now.

Billions is pretty good but the chuck v bobby stuff is getting a bit tiresome now. Should make this the last season.

Yeah Homeland after season 3 was pretty shit. Peter Quinn character saved it a bit. Good English actor Rupert Friend. Claire Danes just does your head in after a while.
