"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?"
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
Finished Narcos - Loved it. Wasn't sure half way through this 2nd season but picks up brilliantly. Loads of scope for the following 2 seasons too.

"Started to watch Spotless on Netflix.....really quite good. 2 French guys in the crime scene cleaning business get hooked up with the underworld. Although French it's based in London, Miranda Raison is the wife and the leads mistress is very fit....had it all out the other day !"

"Mart, I've nearly finished series 3 of Power, it def gets better after a few episodes and from then on. It's no Wire but not bad if you like a bit of boyz in the hood gang shows."

"Oh, and House of Lies is very very filthy and funny. Well worth a look."

"Depend what you want from it I guess? The plot twists are great, loads of things you don't see coming. I think most series are like that, you need to watch 2-3 to get into them and that's what I did. On series 2 at the min, episode 9. Watching it in 4K helps, looks the bollocks! Will get with Narcos when I'm done."

"Watched the first episode of Power and thought it was shockingly bad, gave up. So you boys are saying it gets better ?"
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
Halt and catch fire on Amazon. Set in the early80's tech boom. It's excellent.

"Obsessed with POWER at the minute, just confirmed series 4/5 too. FUCKING LOVE IT"

"Finished season 1 of 'Occupied' last night (Norwegian series about a Russian occupation, subtitles etc). Had been hesitating over whether to watch it as it felt just a little too far fetched for my taste. How wrong was I. It's not the fasted moving but I think the writing is excellent. One of the best things about it was that I didn't feel like they were stretching it out, as I do now when watching most American stuff. I thought it took an unusually subtle look at the various characters and the conflicting situations they find themselves in as those sneaky fucking russkies go about their dastardly deeds. Would highly recommend. Oh, and Mr Robot was fucking toilet."

"The problem Westworld has is that it has to live up to the film, which is a fucking classic. And the poor bugger stepping into Yul Brynner's shoes needs to nail it. He died 31 years ago and was 53 when he made Westworld (looked about 40 the sod), crazy."

Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
just finished series one of narcos and I've enjoyed it. not sure it would have worked if they'd had Escobar and the Colombian characters speaking in English so good call by the producers & Netflix. the fella playing Javier Pena reminds me of a young Burt Reynolds :.) good story here from this week about Escobar's Hippos terrorise villages in Colombia http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3795436/I-ll-never-forget-screams-children-Pablo-Escobar-s-hippos-terrorise-nearby-village-children-forced-run-lives-beasts.html

"B, I couldn't recommend it any more! Narcos is great, I've only got 2 episodes left of S2. Westworld looks like it could be excellent. What a cast and creative team."
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
"gph 3:26 Tuesday Sep 20 I'm watching No Offence at the moment too. I agree that it's not great, but it is watchable. It took quite a few episodes to get into it and it's only because it's a bit of English telly, that I've stuck with it."
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
"joey i might give it a go again, problem is coming into autumn/winter is when you get a lot of new series starting so probably wont have the time. just started narcos last night, looks very good after only 2 episodes. watched two series of bloodline last month, enjoyed it. looking forward to westworld starting soon"

"Reply Trevor B 12:10 Tue Sep 20 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls Enjoyed S1 of Mr Robot, gave up after three episodes of S2. S2 has been quite polarising for many, but most agree that it does improve as it goes on. I've loved it from EP1, but then I'm a massive fanboy."
