"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?"

"Strange how tastes differ so much. Just finished S4 of Ozark and can't wait for S5, which will be the last."

"Peacemaker is just superb. Colourful, violent, sweary, disgusting and funny. Just what you want from a grown-up superhero show. DC's dark and gritty stuff leaves me absolutely cold but James Gunn has breathed life into that world. Up there with The Boys. And as a bonus he very much likes showing his wife off to the world. 4 eps in now. Available on HBO Max or your preferred hookey telly supplier."

"On a lighter note from the Gamoras and Ozarks, for comedy Schitt's Creek is quite fun. I think it's hard to follow the golden age of BB, SOA, Banshee, Dexter, The Soparanos etc."

Claypole Cheers lad. I thought the first season was brilliant. I didn’t even know they were making a second one.

Both Ozark & Gomorrah are excellent but the fact the writer of one gets to spend his life in protection tells you its own added story.......

"Watched some Gomorrah and it's good but nowhere as good as Ozark. ""Doing business with Rednecks...lol"" Can't wait for season 4 coming up on 21/1."

"NS, im not sure Gomorrah is the sort of show that you get that 'stop life' feeling about and im saying that as someone that loved it. Its very dark and at time bleak so you dont get moments of comedic relief like you do in shows like the Wire/Sopranos/Succession/Breaking Bad and also with the subtitles it can be pretty hard work to watch more than 2 or 3 episodes in one sitting. That said stick with it as more and more characters come in to it that are worth persevering for, ultimately an equal amount of them leave through a variety of gruesome ends."

8 episodes in on series one of Gomorra... yeah it's good... is it the best thing I have ever seen?? No not at the moment but we are enjoying it... will probably watch a couple of episodes a night if nothing else is on so not getting to that 'stop life we need to watch this shit 24/7' like I have with other stuff... but it is deffo' watchable..

"I think I'm going to have to give Gomorrah a go. I've seen it recommended here too many times. Unfortunately I might have to watch it with dubbing, as I'll probably watch this last thing at night, and I found with Squid Games that I tended to nod off if I was having to read too much at that time of night."

"Gomorrah is a masterpiece. I'm not gutted it's ended though, as it was the right time, can't go on forever, and now we are left with the legacy. For anyone who hasn't seen it, wtf are you doing?? Btw, the pressure is on for ted now, he can't really now come back and see he thinks it's shit :-)"

"I wish I could take the credit Ted, sometimes you see/watch/hear something that just evokes such emotions and Gomorrah certainly fits that bill. Their ability to make you genuinely care about anti-heroes who are just horrendous humans is a testament to the writing and acting. Gonna go back and watch them all from the start again, always pick up so much more the second time round."
