"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?"

One of the few things for me that didn't have a bad way to end it was Spiral. Very good all the way through as well.

"Was a bit disappointed with Your Honor from episode 5 onwards to be honest, but Cranston is excellent. Bloodlands,, oh dear. Nesbitt doesn't wear a frown well. Episode One was ok but went downhill fast. Hopefully will be redeemed by Line Of Duty starting again next week I think. Re Cranston if you haven't seen his movies, The Infiltrator and The Upside along side Kevin Hart both are very good."

"So the first series is worth a watch? I've seen it advertised, presumably because the 2nd series has just come out."

We have just finished series 1 of The Terror (bbc iplayer). Tense ten parter. Don’t bother with series 2 as completely different story and crap apparently. Is Our country worth a watch?

"New Jersey 3:24 Mon Mar 15 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls How to ruin your Sunday night, watch us lose then watch Bloodlands, fucking rubbish! Worst thing i've watched in years. Can't stand Nesbitt. So wooden, acting skills consist of shout and staring into space. Plot full of wholes, not least the 3 main suspect, 3 coppers, were still the 3 cops leading the investigation."

Have probably seen most over the years and had a 'best episodes' dvd but looking forward to working through from the start.

The second series wasn't as good as the first but it was pretty decent once it eventually got going.

Chill I agree and Kinnaman and Perfroy are good actors. But 2nd season was garbage. I gave up after 2 episodes

"I really liked Altered Carbon - once I finally realised what the fuck was going on. The writing can be ropy but it's a decent, high budget sci-fi concept with great worlds and some sublime minge. Naturally, as soon as Netflix clocked that I liked it, they cancelled the 3rd series."

Manuel 9:43 Mon Mar 15 Not true as a lot of series mentioned on here I haven't seen. Also I never watch soaps or reality TV like most on here. I just find the best new and up and coming stuff as proved many times like Zerozerozero ages ago.

"Swiss. 4:42 Sun Mar 14 ''I started watching Debris some alien shit. Don't bother'' Don't worry I won't. I suppose you have watched everything under the sun now, son. And is it true that you get square eyes if you watch too much tv?"

"Just finished watching the Italian drama 1992 (and its sequels 1993 & 1994) on Sky Atlantic. It's about corrupt politics and the rise of Berlusconi but focuses mainly on a handful of fictional characters who are amoral, obsessive or self destructive. Faster paced and with more sex and crime than most series about politics, it's highly recommended. If you're bothered by subtitles, the series also features a former Miss Italy beauty queen getting her kit off a lot in one of the lead roles, so you can just watch it for the eye candy."
