"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?"

Moved onto The Bureau on Amazon the other day. A French espionage drama that's more John Le Carre than Spooks. Excellent so far.

"I'm a good few years behind, but I just the toher day tried S1 Ep1 of ""Black Mirror,"" and promptly watched the first two seasons in a few days. About to start S3. By far the best TV I've seen in ages. Massive respect to Charlie Brooker."

"Don't be a dick, Grumpster. I'm going to stick with it though, but to say it's immense is laughable, and there are no interesting characters in it (not yet anyway)"

"DukeofDevo 1:12 Tue Nov 29 Interesting that you say that, Duke, and think you're right on the button. With televisions the size they are now, and with all the home cinema surround sound all becoming very affordable, why pay ÔøΩ12 - ÔøΩ15 per person to go and see anything in the cinema? Most of which isn't great. Netflix and Amazon are changing the game. I used to look for streams but now, for less than a TV license, I can fill my boots watching decent, well written shows on demand."

"Braquo is ok, first two seasons are good then it turns's a bit silly. I gave up on season 4.. I'm currently enjoying Maron on Netflix, first few episodes are nothing special but gets better.."

"Thought all of the kids in it were brilliant actors. There's definitely a second series and they have all been signed up again. Were going to do it 10 years further on, but they wanted to use all of the same kids again. Have faith in the writers, as Netflix seem to be churning out belter after belter."
