"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?"

"Fully agree regarding The Sopranos, The Wire, Band of Brothers - all excellent. I remember watching Prison Break when it was first broadcast on Channel 5, it was amazing. Only saw bits and bats of the 2nd series but thought it looked good still. Never saw any more than that, though. The Honourable Woman which was on recently on BBC was good. A little pretentious but still filmed well. I haven't seen any of Homeland but caught a few glimpses of Prisoners of War (Hatufim) which it was based on and it looked good."

Wentworth and Banshee both have Kiwis as their main characters. We're awesome.

"First two seasons of prison break are excellent. There's quite literally a moment towards the end if season 2 where the dollar signs go up in the producers eyes and they change the end to make a new series. Fir the most part, season 3 is poor (during the writers strike so that's maybe why). Season 4 is very good again, though very very far fetched. And has that idiot Michael Rapaport who us just shit But it's all well worth a go. And there's 'the final break' as an added bonus to tie all the loose ends up It's all worth it for theodore bagwell"

"The sopranos is worth a watch. On the last series now, good drama with a fair bit of comedy thrown in."

It's an hour where you don't have to think about a single thing Def and can just watch the sex and mayhem with some good humour thrown in.

diehardhammer 5:59 Wed Sep 10 Agreed. Simply stunning tv. Saying that I only have watched the first 2 seasons as have heard it went downhill somewhat for the last 2 seasons. Would you say that they are still worth watching?
