Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls

[HairySpotter]

"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?"

[ooooh Morley Morley]

Don't bother watching Blood Drive on SyFy... it's fucking shit.

[wurzel]

"Reply di_kezio 9:54 Sun Jun 18 Agreed, Trapped is excellent"

[Fortunes Hiding]

Not really a box set. But just watched all of Cardinal on bbciplayer. Canadian crime drama. Very good.

"The corbyn,s is OK...about a privileged family who go into politics and are followed everywhere by people with no grey matter."

[jfk]

"All episodes of Curb your enthusiasm now available on sky. Fill yer boots,brilliant."

[Fivetide]

"It helps if you like the comic books, or at least comic books in general, but The Preacher is a lot of fun."

[Ilford Hammer]

"Finished The Shield earlier this week. Very good, although I did prefer Southland. Just started season 5 of The Americans, which remains a quality show. Downloaded the entire series of Oz last night which I've never seen, but am looking forward to based off of some of the reviews I've read."

"Started watching Orange is the New Black at the weekend and am 6 episodes in. Not too bad actually, quite enjoying it as far as train TV goes. Not one for eye candy though!!"

"Best series I've watched in the last year is Trapped, an Icelandic murder mystery. Set in a small fishing village, an avalanche cuts them off from the outside world. Suddenly people start dropping dead, and the small police unit have to manage the situation in their own. If you like The Killing, The Bridge etc, this is up there with them for Scandi crime drama."

"Have recently watched Parks and Recreation from start to finish. The first and last series are a bit meh, but, the rest especially, is some of the funniest TV I've ever seen. Ron Swanson is a superb character"

[Private Dancer]

"I gave up on HOC, but can't remember if I finished season 3 or 4 now. Can't wait for Gomorrah - simply magnificent. Billions is decent, but season 1 is better than 2. Prison break season 5 was appaLling, but it did get better at the end when they were all back in the US."

[Takashi Miike]

I'm watching the 4th series of house of cards and seriously struggling why frank tolerates that creepy cսnt of an author

[Andy-Hammer]

"Im up to date with Wentworth Sniper, 2nd that it's very good well worth watching. See the Finale Prison Break last night and that was very good too."

[Eddie B]

Gillian Anderson is out of this world. Stunning.

[Grumpster]

"Cheers Ilford, was looking for that last week. FUCKING MAGNIFICENT PROGRAMME. Crazy reading that, that the original writer of the book lives with round the clock police protection to protect him from the real crime bosses who want his head!"

[Ilford Hammer]

Gomorrah season 3 is out in the autumn. http://ilglobo.com.au/news/34612/gomorrah-3-set-to-hit-screens-in-the-european-autumn/#

[Sniper]

Anyone mentioned wentworth prison yet? I think it's series 5 that's just started on 5* - it's very good

[Rusta]

Just on the 3rd series of Banshee would highly recommend

[DukeofDevo]

"Not sure if this should be on the docs thread or this box set, probably both Check out The Keepers on Netflix Harrowing tale of Catholic child abuse and murder, with a healthy dollop of police colusion and church cover up. Gripping stuff!"

[Takashi Miike]

"yes, Anderson is pure filth who gets better looking as the years pass :.)"

[chim chim cha boo]

Miike. I like that episode too- especially when she kicks that henchman so hard in the bollocks that his spine shoots out. I want to see more of Gillian Anderson as Lucille Ball. She made me get that funny feeling that I used to have climbing up a rope in PE at junior school.

[Grumpster]

"Lee Trundle 3:18 Wed May 31 Looked it up after being confused by him being different and apparently he was sacked during filming of series 2, as he was basically fucking hated by most people, especially one of the main writers. English chap he is!"

[Takashi Miike]

"American Gods is alright but I'm finding it a bit plot light, and very style over substance. I think the best episode so far was the one featuring his dead wife coming back to life. also, anything with Stormare in it is watchable"

[chim chim cha boo]

"This won't interest a lot of you attention deficit disordered types but the best 'box-set' is something most of you have paid for already, Versailles, available on iPlayer. Unbelievable really that the French put up some of the money (along with several other countries) without insisting on it being in French with English subtitles. They even let them (sumptuously) film a lot of it actually at Versailles. It's full of tits and arses, people getting decapitated and their eyes burnt out and even the King's poofy brother and his lover (Dougal from The Magic Roundabout) are funny. It's got a brilliant 5.1 score too for those of you who have surround sound- a mix of classical and electronica. I'm also watching (as you're asking) the latest series of Better Call Saul which I think is better in every way than Breaking Bad. It's TV that is not afraid to take things slowly and tells the tale of how the two best Breaking Bad characters (Mike and Saul) got to be the people they are when Breaking Bad started. Fucking clever and brilliantly acted. weirdly, considering I'd rather sit on a rusty nail than sit through science-fantasy or comic-book films, American Gods is my favourite show currently on TV. I've never seen anything like it and it's almost impossible to explain it without making it sound awful. Again, it's got an amazing surround-sound score and looks like it had the budget of any super-expensive Hollywood film."
