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?"

[Fivetide]

"When I first heard about the plan to have four origin series leading into The Defenders I thought it was a great idea. But Daredevil became turgid after the first series, Jessica Jones was very good but 99% of that was David Tennant. Luke Cage was too cool for school and I couldn't get into it all, while Iron Fist was bewilderingly bad and I didn;t get past episode two. Real shame, as now feel there's little point in watchign Defenders without half the back story. Oh well. Ozark then - not touched it yet, is it good?"

[w4hammer]

"Just finished Ozark. Spunked it all in a week. which is a shame, I could do with series two quality all over. Especially Ruth/Julia Garnier *gosh*"

Any idea when/where Mr Mercedes might air in the UK Devo?

[White Pony]

"Just finished Open All Hours, Season 2. Fucking addicted. Probably won't go to bed tonight."

[DukeofDevo]

Mr Mercedes. Based on the Steven king book and The Sinner currently being enjoyed by me and Mrs Devo!

[Don Ravioli]

"Just started watching Snowfall. About the early days of the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles in the 80's. Very good, music is superb as well. The Israeli drug dealer in it is a fucking lunatic. Well worth a watch."

[Takashi Miike]

"I'm really struggling with iron fist. I thought 'The Hand' shit had stopped at Daredevil season 2 but no, regurgitate it for another twelve episode or how many there are?"

"SurfaceAgentX2Zero 3:26 Fri Aug 18 . 'The best thing about the last two were the two chick side-kicks/allies Misty Knight and Colleen Wing who should definitely be partnered-up spun off into their own show as they have been in the comics.' Having just watched the last episode of The Defenders, it would appear Netflix/Marvel are doing just that."

[jools268]

"I can't recommend. The Americans enough. One of the best series I've ever seen. It's about a seemingly ordinary couple living in the USA, apart from the fact that they are actually Russians working for the KGB. It's based on a real program the Russians set up and is written by an ex CIA officer. It's so complex in that it doesn't stereotype them, they have been living in the US for years and have two kids and it's about how they reconcile their feelings about what they do whilst effectively living a lie. They do it because they believe they are making the world a better place for everyone and that even though they sometimes have to do terrible things that it's for the greater good. The acting is brilliant, the writing is top notch and it's consistently gripping. You will thank me."

[jools268]

Jessica jones was great. Tennant was excellent in it. Daredevil is pretty good as well.

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

"The quality of these Netflix Marvel shows has, in my opinion, gone down in chronological order. DD was excellent, the first season better than the second, Jessica Jones was good, Luke Cage was OK and Iron Fist I endured. The best thing about the last two were the two chick side-kicks/allies Misty Knight and Colleen Wing who should definitely be partnered-up spun off into there own show as they have been in the comics."

[Mart O]

"Exactly, Miike. Shame, but that's business I suppose. Like you say though, The Punisher could be good."

[Mart O]

"Exactly, Miike. Shame, but that's business I suppose. Like you say though, The Punisher could be good."

[Takashi Miike]

"the thing I think they've done is try and please everyone by watering down the violence and adult content so everyone can watch it but for me the reason Daredevil worked so well was because it was very near the mark, one example the scene where The Punisher has to fight all those prisoners in his cell block. that's as brutal as you get in a TV show"

[Mart O]

"Feel pretty much the same. Gave up on Luke Cage before the end, as I just thought it was wooden. Didn't finish Jessica Jones either but I did actually like it. Might give it another go tonight. I thought Daredevil was excellent, the fight scenes with the Punisher were brilliantly done. Which is where Iron Fist fell down for me. I thought the combat scenes were pretty poor. Not sure who's directing The Defenders but hopefully it's more DD than IF. Either way, looking forward to it."

[Takashi Miike]

"haha. not overly impressed with Luke Cage, liked Jessica Jones and really liked Daredevil until the last couple of episodes. The Punisher series is the one I'm looking forward to whenever it arrives"

[Mart O]

"No sleep for you, Miike. 9 straight hours of fisting. Or something..."

[Takashi Miike]

"Mart O, I've only just started Iron Fist so better hurry up and get that out of the way"

[Mart O]

Just seen that The Defenders airs on Netflix tomorrow.

"Grumpster 3:49 Thu Jun 1 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls 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! Reply Ilford Hammer 3:42 Thu Jun 1 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls Gomorrah season 3 is out in the autumn. http://ilglobo.com.au/news/34612/gomorrah-3-set-to-hit-screens-in-the-european-autumn/# _____ ^^^^^ Yeah boooy!"
