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?"

[jayjones]

"Tin Star, really very good"

[Private Dancer]

Gonna give Trapped a go. I like shown with subs as you don't miss anything.

[Mart O]

di_kezio - noted Trapped from your previous recommendations. Haven't got round to it yet but deffo on my list. Ilford - first episode of S3 of The Bureau is up on the streaming sites.

[Joe C]

"Started watching Tin Star tonight, three episodes in and so far well worth watching"

[DukeofDevo]

"Not sure Brendon Gleeson, great actor that he is, fits my view of the detective in Mr Mercedes! Good viewing but it should have gone to HBO"

[lowlife]

"Finally got round to watching Stranger Things. One episode left, I really like it. Great soundtrack too!"

[Billy Go Wings]

"Currently watching ""The Affair""' mainly because it has Ruth Wilson in it who I really like (played the nutty bird in Luther). It's not in my top 5, but more than watchable."

"di_kezio Trapped was also excellent, just finished it. thanks"

[kirok1]

"Just started on Mr Mercedes. You'll have to wait a few weeks for the full first series but it's shaping up really well. Cast is spot on, even if they did add in another character and change the background for Jerome, it's very good. If you enjoyed the book trilogy, you'll definitely take to this."

[di_kezio]

"I've recommended an Icelandic murder mystery quite a few times on here, called Trapped. Best thing I've seen in last 12 months. After an avalanche, a small town is cut off from outside assistance, and the local police force have a murder on their hands. Much more too it than that, and it's both beautiful and gripping. If you liked The Killing and perhaps other Scandi-noir, then you'd like this."

Fook

[MancIron]

One word. Brockmire. Funny as fool.

[wurzel]

"I tried and tried with The Wire and just couldn't get into it. Slow, boring. So far I've taken notice of many recommendations including Sopranos Narcos Gomorrah (what a find) Sneaky Pete Ray Donovan Animal Kingdom (also veey good) But the wire is very, meh."

I gave up on billions

[Ilford Hammer]

The Bureau is fucking superb. One of the best TV shows ever in my opinion. Series 3 has just finished but isn't available in the UK yet.

"Agreed W4. Once I've finished with S3 of Narcos I'll be on to S3 of this. Really looking froward to it, which is rare, but S2 was a cracker."

"Mart O 7:13 Thu Sep 7 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls One thing I caught up with quite late is 'The Bureau' or ""Le bureau des legendes'. In French with subtitles, kind of like a French 'Homeland' but much better, brilliant writing and acting. I've watched the first two seasons recently. Really excellent TV. _________________________ its absolutely brilliant - agreed series two is even better than series one"

"Really enjoyed Ozark, cant wait for the 2nd series. Think that's the first time ive seen Bateman playing a serious role, thought he did really well."

[Grumpster]

"On the second episode of Ozark, definitely has potential. I see the chap directed it himself as well."

[jools268]

"Yeah, watched it since it started, great show. Very good cast and writing."

[w4hammer]

Ive just started Halt and Catch fire- really good so far- including a banging 80's soundtrack- anyone else onto this?!

[Haz]

PD - Couldn't disagree more. I loved the second series of Billions. Can't wait for series 3!

[Don Ravioli]

Yeah definitely stick with that. Season 2 is probably the slowest but after that it really cracks on. Probably one of the best tv shows ever made.
