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?"

[BillC79]

"Nice one, thanks both"

[Soylent Green]

"Joe C 10:22 Tue Dec 28 There's bits of his Robot books that continued after Foundation that are in this first series. You can watch it as a stand alone series, but if you've read all the books (were there 7?), it helps!"

[Joe C]

"You absolutely do not have to have read Asimov’s books to watch Foundation. I’ve read them and the series (so far) is only very loosely based on parts of the first book. But, it’s still very good. Got better as it went along, and the last couple of episodes were superb - looking forward to the second series. Lee Pace particularly was excellent"

[Soylent Green]

"BillC79 8:53 Tue Dec 28 Foundation is based on the Asimov series of books, so it helps if you've read them. It's ok - got Jarred Harris in it, so can't be bad really. Invasion was ok as well. Nothing that hasn't been done before though."

[BillC79]

"Has anyone watched either of the sci fi series on Apple? One called Foundation, the other called Invasion. Just wondering if they’re any good. Agreed with those that likes White Lotus, Ted Lasso and Succession. Watched Wheel of Time on Amazon - alright if you liked GoT style stuff"

[Joe C]

"If you want to be up to date, you have to either pay for it, or nick it off the internet at the mo. The Paramount Channel has shown the first two series, but still no sign of the third and fourth. Paramount+ is launching in the UK early next year and will be included with Sky Q - so should be available then"

Looks like it might be on Prime Haz but it will cost you.

"Where can I find Yellowstone? Don't have Kodi or similar but have the usual Sky, Netflix, Prime etc"

Lee Trundle 5:20 Tue Dec 21 We took your advice Lee and last night watched the first 3 episodes straight off.... loved it

[englandinireland]

collyrob 12:39 Wed Dec 15 You have whomail

[Lee Trundle]

"Irons10 9:41 Mon Dec 20 That's good to hear. I've been late to the party with Yellowstone but watched them all this year, and it's easily the best thing I've watched in a long time."

[ted fenton]

Manuel 4:06 Tue Dec 21 Fortunately me and the wife have similar tastes with a bit of give and take as I watch a lot of sport :-)

[Manuel]

"ted - 'for us' So you and the wife always have the same opinion on a show? I thought it was okay and only watched it after it was being praised on here. That said, some real shit has been reco'd on here before."

[ted fenton]

"Kaiser Zoso 10:29 Mon Dec 13 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls Alfs 2:45 Sun Jan 10 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls Coming to the end of the first season of The Morning Show. Jennifer Anniston is superb. Just started series 2 of The Morning Show"" and yes it's very very good... Gave the White Lotus a go manuel but not really for us."

1883 - The prequel to Yellowstone looks promising. I'm 1 episode in and enjoyed it

[claypole]

Have been enjoying Gomorrah. Probably delivering the story that everybody has been wanting but maybe a little flimsy the reasoning behind it.

[collyrob]

Where are ye watching Gomorrah. I see it’s out on sky on the 18th. But it wasn’t on my dodgy box the last time I checked

[englandinireland]

Gomorrah Season 5. 8 episodes in and it is still delivering. Ties up the link with The Immortal film

"Can't all like the same thing and I used to work with a bloke who actually sat there fuming whenever I mentioned I thought both Bob marley and Bowie were average amd would bring it up a year later in conversation still angry. Thought breaking bad was average as well and turned succession off after about 3 episodes, yet managed all of Ash v evil dead which TV connoisseurs probably think is shit (and in reality is). Give me Deadwood, BoB and Justified any day of the week."

[Nagel]

"Manuel, I think you'd enjoy Succession more if you viewed it as a comedy rather than worrying about the storylines. For me the plot is there just to make the characters do hilariously awful things."

[Aberdeen Iron]

"Logan Roy has some outstanding swearing going on, is he a WHOer?"

[Manuel]

"low - Yea, don't get me wrong most of these shows are all very clever and obviously written by highly intelligent people. But like I say, with Succession there isn't enough sub plots and variety for me. Take Roman for example, he has no storyline, nothing going on. In the first season when Kendall killed that kid in the car that was a good subplot, so I don't know why they don't write more storylines like that? The whole show is just about the family business. Anyway, hardly fucking important :-)"
