"West Wing (Just brilliant, great writing and performances, one episode sums it up, Two Cathederals, one of the best episodes of any TV series ever) Justified (Raylan Givens, probably the coolest man ever to wear a Stetson) House of Lies (Funny and Filthy in equal measure) Deadwood (Violent,dirty and brilliantly written. Cocksucka) Battlestar Galactica (Deep and intriguing sci fi) Firefly (Joss Whedon' short lived but witty Sci Fi packed with good characters and great writing)"

"Devo I'm slowly getting through west wing, been doing so for about a year, its good but feels a little dated now and probably not as gripping as it was at the time, but worth a watch. i get stuck into a lot of other series too so its not top of the list."

"Finished ""the night of"" was a bit disappointed to be honest, started off great but just sort of fizzled out and probably had 3 episodes too many."

"Currently getting into the Walking Dead although Zombies aren't typically my thing. If I had to pick a top 3, would be: 1. Thrones 2. Black Sails 3. Banshee Honourable mentions for Agents of SHIELD, Sons of Anarchy, the Wire and I also really enjoyed LOST back in the day. Worst series I attempted...Revolution."

"Takashi Miike. Going back a bit, but if you're still thinking of getting that 'Twilight Zone: The Definitive Collection' box, hold off. They're releasing a new version on blu-ray and dvd on Oct. 11th, which looks like it'll be a much cheaper option. Think it might be US only though, like the old one."
