"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?"

I’ve just finished the final two episodes of The Last Dance and can highly recommend it. The series itself is brilliant but the final episode is exceptional. Sport at its very best and drama until the very end. What an incredible athlete Michael Jordan was and Phil Jackson was a genius coach. Great to see behind the scenes and also hear from some of the lesser known players too. I had zero interest in basketball before watching and that will probably continue to be fair - but it’s a must watch for any sport lover.

"What we do in the shadows is as funny as fuck, even better than the film and the second series is even better than the first. We all could do with a bit of cheering up at this moment and a bunch of vampires from Shitty Statarn Island who are scared of everything is the antidote. Especially when two of the vampires are Matt Berry and Novan Kovach of Phonjacker fame."

"Joe C 9:28 Fri May 22 Stick with Justified I'm a total bore about the series - initial episodes were pretty much one-offs until the narrative thread developed. Great dialogue,great cast,great production - blah blah blah. It's clear I'm a fan - if I've watched all 6 seasons 30 times, I'm probably low. Usual disclaimers. Continue & enjoy."

"Series 1 of Westworld was very, very good. Series 2 was stupid as it tried to be too clever. Series 3 was back to being very good"

"Ted, yeah it gets better. First few episodes seemed like a poor reworking of the film but it improves. Also, all 3 seasons are completely separate and self-contained so you could always try out season 2, which is the best one I think."

We watched the first three episodes of Fargo last night now I know I'm hard to please but do we persevere with this ? I remember not liking the first few episodes of Breaking Bad and ended up loving it.
