"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?"

"I've pretty much had my fill with zombie stuff (thanks to the Walking Dead and how that went downhill so quickly), but I'm hearing really good things about The Last of Us. Can anyone recommend it on here?"

Just watched it. Glad to say there isn't anything else about the first episode to be critical of. Very well made.

Yeah I know the game. Was hoping it wouldn't go the same woke/diversity driven way.

"yes, Iain Glen's a great actor but seems now to be in his late De Niro phase where he'll agree to be in any old shit if it pays well"

"The Rig is absolute shit. Basically, it the Doctor Who episode The Curse of the Black Spot but stretched out from 40 minutes to six hours. Even great actors like Martin Compston, Iain Glen, Mark Bonnar and Mark Addy look bad and that reliably over-acting cսnt Owen Teale goes for a life-time best. The funny actress from Schitt's Creek who played the receptionist/manager is given lines to say that make her seem more wooden than Pinocchio. Plus it's unrealistic and woke as fuck. Half the crew are women and in the very first scene we find out, for no discernible reason whatsoever, that one of them is in a same-sex marriage. In the first episode all the comms go down, so who do they send up a two hundred foot ladder in a dense fog and in a storm just to check if the magic radio switch is turned on? Yes, the smartest bloke on the rig and resident comms expert who is the person on board who you can least afford to die. Fucking hell it was bad."

Same as that ray. Up until the Godfather I'd only really read football related stuff and the music press but after finishing it Iv'e had books on the go ever since.

"o1bb, it’s my favourite book, first read it in my mid 20’s, it was like nothing I’d read before, had a real impact on me. Have read it several times since, a true masterpiece."
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
"Bell Is all episodes out at once or week by week? The offer has been mentioned a few times here, quality show. We started The Recruit on Netflix, it’s decent, good story although a bit far fetched at times. But stil enjoyable"

"Ray. Have you read the book? My old man gave me a copy when i was 15 but i found it to much heavy going at that aged. Picked it up again at 19 and didnt put it down til it was finished, absolute masterpiece."

"Ray. I said the same. I'm a Godfather geek,loved the book as much as the first 2 films and i thought the offer was superb. My mrs on the other hand thought it was ok but she dosnt share my passion for the subject."

"Not sure if it's been mentioned but The Offer is superb, especially if, like me, you're a huge fan of The Godfather films."

"Welcome to the Chippendales. Interesting to see how it all started, along with the crimes that went with it, but as a drama it lacks anyone who is a likeable. At eight episodes, I'd avoid, unless you like seeing muscly men in thongs."
