Awesome TV shows

i just binge watched the entire series of the WIRE.

Really captivated me, however the writing development in season 5 really disappointed me in comparison to the earlier stuff and yet again british actors pointlessly putting on american accents was more than a bit bonkers for a show so ingrained into one particular area. They used plenty of local talent, so why get a brit to put on a funny voice.

Wayward Pines appeared to be good, but knowing M Night Shalyman.. it could be a disaster.

Might get back into Sons of Anarchy...
 
Finished Breaking Bad last week, been watching it with the wife since Febuary, flippin brillient. Anyone that has not watched it yet, should! :shock:
 
Been off work for a couple of days with a bad back so I decided
to give 'stitchers' a go and despite it being cheesy and a bit daft
I've quite enjoyed it :shock: :lol:
 
I'm working through Parks and Recreation at the moment. Its quite basic to get into and episodes are only about 20-22 minutes long, so grab and go comedy really. If you liked the American Office, you'll get it straight away.
 
Just finished Jessica Jones on Netflix, awesome stuff, equally as good as Daredevil was. David Tennnats turn as Killgrave is fantastic.
 
I haven't read back through the thread, but as far as I am concerned, The Walking Dead is the single greatest TV show in history. I am completely obsessed with that show, to the point of if it came down to SW vs TWD, I'd go with the zombies.

'The Walking Dead' & 'Fear The Walking Dead'

What else can be said that hasn't already been said?


'Better Call Saul'

Best prequel ever.


'Mr.Robot'

Rami Malek is outstanding in this show,good job from Christian Slater too.


'Black Sails'

The last episode of season 2 was easily some of the best tv i've ever seen! Probably the best depiction of Caribbean piracy yet.


'The Americans'

Great show about Russian 'Illegals' with great actors and they really capture the early 80's feel.


'The Man In The High Castle'

Another great show from that depicts an alternate ending to WW2 in which Japan and Germany win the war and occupy America.
 
I really like some of the English stuff I have been seeing lately :) some of it is very hard hitting, but this is England 86 + 88 and + 90 were awesome . Top boy was another good one and run and when it all gets to heavy stick on down on abbey for a bit and then go back to cracker on YouTube :D

Two words: Breaking Bad.

Possibly the best TV show ever made (and I say that as a complete Soprans devote). An absolute crime/mystery why no UK broadcaster has picked this up.

Wholeheartedly agree, nearly as good as Star Wars :D
'Better call Saul' is it's prequel and equal in many ways .
Tried watching 'Walking the Dead' and found it repetitive and predictable at times so gave up after about 4 episodes.
Watched the first couple of series of 'Lost' and they were superb but then it got silly so gave up on it.
Similarly watched the first series of 'Heroes' which was superb but then got daft.
I really hope they do a new series of BB and BCS!
 
Just finished watching Fargo season 2 which was very good considering I haven't seen the film or the first season.
It has a long way to go before beating Breaking Bad, but the suspense and story were top notch.

Walking Dead will be back soon, which I can't wait for, but still prefer the comic.
 
I honestly thought BB was average at best. Not in the same league as The Wire, Sopranos or Dexter.
Enjoying Boardwalk Empire at the moment.
 
I thoroughly enjoyed Gotham and the new series is on 5 tomorrow at 10. Muchly excited! :P
 
Don't watch much drama on the telly but i'm thoroughly enjoying Deutschland 83 on channel 4 at the moment. German spy drama about a spy from East Germany working as a West German soldier in 1983. Brilliant stuff.
 
Just getting into 'Blindspot' on Sky Atlantic. So far so good. Loss of memory, tattoos that are clue's to crimes that are going to happen. It has potential
