"This will be my first post in a year. A year of mourning. I have been watching mundane stuff to take mind off of things. I'm always late to the party. But fucking hell , Gomorrah is simply first class production and television. Based on a true story. Its crazy the council housing was deemed futuristic and modern an answer to social housing for Italians. They just became estates for mass drug dealing. All the nicknames Lil Monk, the Wizard, Blue Blood, Blue eyes , the King. The twists every episode. How every cսnt that gets to the top gets fucked in a shocking way. The Immortal. The Gulag prison episode. Epic TV. Anyone 50/50 about investing in viewing 5 series of subtitles. Then have no doubt this is 1st class criminal drama TV from true events. Next up the Documentary. Love this thread. All posters on similar wavelength. No politics. No arguments. Just helpful reviews and opinions. My question. I hate dramas apart from crime ones. Will I enjoy Succession ? Has anyone seen Suburra??"

"I know it’s been talked about a lot on here but fuck me, how good is the writing on Succession. Rom’s character is sensational and he’s an excellent actor. The casting is absolutely spot on. Shame there’s only going to be two more series max, probably just the one."
