Always thought breaking bad was better with the Mexican cartels as opposed to the hillbilly bikers that came later on. So i am enjoying Better call Saul.

Already have. Rewriting history is never a good thing in drama.

Branded. Eek! Not good. They might catch some flak for that.

"Homeland one of the very few shows i actually gave up on and stopped watching. First season is one of the best things thats been on tele but it went steeply downhill after that. i made it until about midway through season 3 before i called it a day, cant believe it's still going!"

Had to give up on that when.... *SPOILER ALERT!* He was texting one of the biggest terrorists in the world from one of the most secure buildings in the world and stopped him getting shot.

It’s bizarre. It challenges every idea of a historically based drama but particularly one as sensitive as the Holocaust. They make up atrocities!

"Watched all of The Detectorists for a second time recently. One of my favourite TV series. Gentle, beautiful, genuinely funny and crafted with every character bringing something to the table (not just buttons). And the characters occasionally swear, just like real people do. You have to admit though that by the end Andy and Lance are properly punching. Oh and Varda is lovely. Probably wait another two years before doing it all over again."

Watched two episodes of the new Amazon show “Hunters” last night. Absolutely fucking bonkers. It’s about some Hews hunting Nazis in 1977 USA. It’s a bit like a Tarantino style of serious and entertaining structure with everything turned up to 11. Absolute shit

"Usually about 3 or 4 years and probably 30 pages of this thread behind everyone else but love the series 'Goliath'. The second of the three series is something else, quality TV."
