"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?"

"think its the finale of Outsider next week. binged through all of altered carbon season 2 on sunday when hungover, was pretty decent but seems a bit toned down compared to the last series. Also first 2 episodes after the midseason break of the walking dead were very good again, really is back to its best with the Whisperers storyline and new writers after it stagnated for a long time and wasted Neegan and the saviours"

Watched first episode of The Spy last night with the Ali G fella in. Slow start but think it’s a grower.... Old series but watched The Fall (Gillian Anderson and the bloke from 50 Shades) that was pretty good for some easy watching

"Cant be bothered to look back and see if it has already been mentioned, but I have just finished watching ""Giri Haji"", an 8 part police / ganster thriller jointly set in London and Tokyo. Fantastic stuff on so many levels from the much maligned (on the other thred) BBC and the best thing I have watched on TV for many a long year. Might still be on i-player so catch it if you havent already."

I thought episode 1 of the new season of BCS was excellent and really set this new season up well. It's up there with Bb for me.

Wisting was good but I like my Scandi Noir. New season of Altered Carbon starts thurs. Loved season 1. Very Blade Runneresque.

"mallard 9:33 Mon Feb 24 BCS is a much much slower start, stick with it and you learn how Saul gets dragged into the criminal world. The slow start helps build it up eventually"

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.

"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!
