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?"

[BRANDED]

There are many times in Gomorrah where the protagonists either have a chance to escape or are advised to. They don’t. They chose to live in shit places with murderers all around them. Bleak nonsense. Regarding Covid. I have consistently said it’s fine for most of us so just be happy and get on with a positive life. Of course I understand why people like bleak drama and bleak lives.

"Just finished series 2 of ""Line Of Duty"" very impressed."

[only1billybonds]

"Gomorrah is unrelentingly depressing and bleak'' Series based on drug dealing gangs in the slums of Naples. What did you expect, Fawlty fucking Towers?. Like Manuel said,go back to spreading joy and glee on the Covid thread."

[Manuel]

BRANDED 12:27 Mon Feb 8 ''Gomorrah is unrelentingly depressing and bleak'' Says the man who has spent every day for the past year talking about death on the Covid thread. Brilliant.

[Alfs]

"I've watched 2 eps of Gangs of London and am not overly impressed. The writers have taken Peaky Blinders, added some imitation Kray brothers, set it in the present day and added over the top violence. And the lead actor is weak. Shame, as it's a gift of a part in the right hands. Brilliant production values though and very well directed."

[BRANDED]

Gamorrah is unrelentingly depressing and bleak. You end up shouting at the screen “ just fucking off with a few million”. Like the bloke in Blackburn did.

[BRANDED]

If you like visceral operatic violence you should be well pleased. If you want documentary style reality drama you’ll be disappointed

[Alfs]

"I'm about to watch the 1st ep of Gangs of London. It better be worth it, took ten minutes to sign up to watch the bloody thing."

[LeroysBoots]

"Finished The Jinx in 2 nights, loved it"

[lincslink]

"Have got last episode of ZeroZeroZero to watch later, then give Suburra a go."

[Manuel]

"Started on Spotless, so far so good, and helps having a couple of sorts in it."

[Northern Sold]

Halfway through zerozerozero very good so far... has a vibe of the Scicarios the way its filmed... will watch the rest over the weekend

[Stowie.40]

"I got the pox with Gomorrah in the end, mate of mine absolutely raved about it, thought it was average at best. Bloke who played Genny got on my tits as well. Zerozerozero looks good 2 episodes in."

[mashed in maryland]

"Halfway through latest series of Suburra at the moment. Actually prefer it to Gomorrah tbh, less predictable (Gomorrah ended up being.. any new character on screen for more than 5 minutes will be killed by the end of the episode) Zerozerozero is next Not a boxset but defo recommend Mosul on Netflix. Arab with English subs, think it was made in Qater."

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

3% on Netflix is quite good if you're into your Brazilian future dystopia-type drama.

[Northern Sold]

Will have a butchers at zero zero zero this weekend... gangs of London was an enjoyable romp... some of the murder scenes were top notch Films watched the Dig last week... thoroughly enjoyed

[Swiss.]

ZeroZeroZero I mentioned yonks ago. Good stuff. Gangs of London worth it for episode 5 alone. The Farm House raid by the Danish mercenaries is fucking classic.

[lincslink]

Watched first episode last night which set it up well. (ZeroZeroZero)

[chim chim cha boo]

"Saw Zerozerozero about a year ago and it's fucking great. Amalfi Mafia, psycho Mexican special forces, African gangs and the Taliban. How could you not like it? It's great storytelling too as every episode begins with the last scene and the rest is the story of how they got to that point. As you say, it's top class telly."

[Alfs]

happygilmore 9:25 Thu Feb 4 It's a ten-parter so you've got a while to wait.

[collyrob]

Have Zerozerozero next on the list. Heard a few people say it’s top class.

[Nagel]

Episode 5 of Gangs of London is basically a stand alone movie. It's way better than the rest of the series and has very little to do with it plot wise. I think it's only one of two episodes that Gareth Evans actually directed and it shows. Worth watching on its own even if you give the other episodes a miss.

[lincslink]

I liked Gomorrah has anyone watched ZeroZeroZero.
