"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?"

"Enjoying Utopia. Similar feel to first series of Misfits, but a tad more grown up."

"Opinion on Prison Break... up to episode 17 on Season 1 and although I think it is ok, it gets a bit repetitive does it not? Everything that can go wrong, you know will go wrong, every episode. It will all come together in the end like a good A Team plan but you do start to get bored of the 'close shaves'...not up with the best IMO"

"The Larry Sanders Show Recently gave in waiting for it to turn up cheap and bought the box set of all series, from 1992 to 1998. This is the original comedy that raised the comedy bar before Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Extras and such like, which must have been heavily influenced by Gary Shandling's genius comedy. HBO's flagship programme for the 90s. I strongly recommend this to all comedy fans. I've been laughing out loud during every episode of series 1 so far."

"Finished Breaking Bad, and up to date with Better Call Saul. Loved both. Just finished Season 1 of Prison Break, and it was excellent."

"Does anyone even know if Gomorrah was renewed for a 2nd series yet? Outstanding programme, one of my favourites of 2014."

"series 3 was also messed up due to the writers strike, so they ended it abruptly. series 1 and 2 are the best, but its worth watching the whole thing just to see how it ends."

Private Dancer 2:07 Mon Apr 27 I'd agree with that. Series 3 and 4 aren't a patch on the first 2. Was orginally only written to be a two series job and was changed at the last minute due to it's popularity

"penners28 1:58 Mon Apr 27 May sound like a silly question but is it worth watching all of it, some say that it's only worth watching the first 2 series?"

"Just started watching Prison Break on my phone going to and from work actually Penners. Started it when first on TV, but because a power cut meant 3 episodes being deleted when my Sky+ was wiped, I never bothered continuing. Mate loves it so why not."

"If you're not taking the piss Frank (thought everyone knew what it was about), it's about the drugs trade on the corners in Baltimore. The Wire is obviously the five o's trying to catch the Barksdale gang in the act with wire taps and surveillance. Fucking superb programme and Omar is one of the best characters in anything ever."
