"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?"

Bloodlands is woeful. Watch Unforgotten the following night for something decent.

I'm on episode 9 of Your Honor. Thought it started really well but it's got a bit bizarre half way through. No particular likeable characters and get the impression a three part mini series could have cramped it all in but maybe it will pick up again. 10 episodes isn't it? Bloodlands with James Nesbit on BBC1 is pretty decent.

LeroysBoots 6:29 Thu Mar 4 Haha. I'm a bit late to the party (on season 2) but I agree it makes me chuckle. As for Annie Murphy I'd bang that into next door.

Vexed 3:53 Wed Mar 3 My advice would be to stick with it. It does get a lot better. But that's just my opinion.

I finished the last episode of Spiral (French police drama) last night after watching 8 series over the last month or so. All episodes available on iPlayer. A big thumbs up from me. The first series is a bit dated camera effects wise but after that its OK.

"Am enjoying Superstore on Netflix. First series is very meh, but gets very funny after that. Not in the same league as Brooklyn Nine Nine/Parks & Rec/The Good Place, but still a nice, easy, ammusing watch"

"Watching ""Some Mother's Son"". Do other people notice stuff like a brown-eyed kid being the son of two blue-eyed parents? Don't think it's got anything to do with the plot, just a casting accident. And it's not impossible for that to happen, as eye-colour inheritance is a bit more complicated than a one gene affair, but it is rare."

Mallard Gave up on ozark halfway through season 2. It’s quite hard watching a drama where none of the characters are likeable

We started watching 'Your Honor' last night with Brian Cranston...the unhinged mob leader is played very well by Michael Stuhlbarg It's on Sky Atlantic and well worth a watch...10 parts though

I gave up with Ozark during season 3 - just seemed to b dragging on with little substance. Just finished Fargo - highly recommended.
