Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls

"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?"

[MaryMillingtonsGhost]

The Penguin is superb so far, Farrell is outstanding.
​​​​​​Very different from what I was expecting.
I didn't realise this is the  work of Matt Reeves.
I havent seen his version of Batman ,  apparently his Batman version will be a trilogy and will tie in with the Penguin 

 

 

Reeves' version of Batman is VERY good imo. Far darker than Nolans, which I also rate highly.

[Monsieur merde de cheval]

Second episode of Penguin is as good as ever. I wonder if Batrman will make an appearence. Doubt it.

Also Paris Has Fallen continues to be excellent.

Watched the first series of Slow Horses.

Started off decent enough but fuck me, by the end I was so done with that far-right kidnapping storyline.

Really unsure on if I should proceed with the 2nd series.

Yep, same here.
starting watching the first series to see what all the fuss is about
Lazy stereo- typing of the white working class male.
I'm not going to list them because the labels insult me.

Btw Bad Monkey ended up dragging itself out and should have conculed 4 episodes earlier. Still worth a watch though. 

It's not actually worth anyone's time watching. Gave up after 4 episodes, how on earth it got dragged out to 10 episodes. I'll never understand. One poor cսnt in work  has endured 9 episodes despite admitting it is crap.

[Alfs]

I agree, Manuel, Slow Horses is already tiring, though a 5th series is already in the can.

I've watched the first 3 (of four) of Four Kings. Very good indeed.  Sad in many ways, too.

[Jim79]

Another one for Four Kings, one of the best sports documentaries I've ever watched, very nostalgic given the era of 90's early 00's and for most of us Londoners 4 boxers we would all have had a vested interest in one way or another. Fucking loved it.

Also on Prime watched Breaking Dad: Britains most unlikely drug dealer. What a mental story and well worth watching.

[Manuel]

I thought the first two series of Slow Horses was very good, then I said on here that from the third series it went downhill with ridiculous storylines and was told on here that I was being too much of a critic and of course the plots shouldn't be anything like real life etc. Started the fourth and it's still OK but how many times is it meant to be funny when Oldman farts or says something controversial? 

[Council Scum]

I was the same Mad Ferret

We've been watching The Sandhamn Murders, which is quite enjoyable. Still a Season available afa I know, still waiting for it to be released into the wild.
There surely can't even be one guy left alive that hasn't fkd Nora in the series (Alexandra Rappaport), and I confess to being jealous. She's 52 now, and still highly fkable - I guess we should despise her for being a slag but for some reason it makes it worse... *unzips* 

Mate it's Stockholm. Having sex is a day to day pastime even amongst work colleagues. Get out there. 

[Frankie Pankie]

Currently streaming Fight Night on Peacock (NBC in America) its a true story surrounding the Black mafia after an Ali fight in Atlanta, its hilarious and 100% recommend it.

Can't speak highly enough of Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War on Netflix.  Terrific.

[Swiss.]

I've just watched the first 3 episodes of La Maison, a fictitious account of 2 warring Haute Couture houses in Paris. It's French, with subtitles, but don't let that put you off.  I'm really enjoying it.  It's on Apple btw.

Swiss, what channel is Paris Has Fallen on?

I liked Colin From Accounts too on the Beeb.  I thought the second series was ok too, unlike Manners.

I downloaded it but I believe its on Netflix. 

[BRANDED]

Industry is a little bit closer to a truth and a story that relates to me than Braking Bad. It's about my city. It's about class. It's about sex. It's about money. It's about London. It's about changes in culture. Its fucking great.

I hadn't noticed Industry until recently.

Fuck me. It's probably one of the best TV series I've ever seen.

On iPlayer. HBO show.

Wacthed 2 episodes and thought this is shit. So you think it's up there with Breaking Bad. Fuck me I had you for having better taste.

Just finished the latest series of Brassic. Daft, but very funny 

[Swiss.]

Actually got it wrong. Paris Has Fallen is 8 episodes. So far excellent and I'd recommend to watch.

[zico]

Four part documentary series on Prime. Probably a few years old but it's a great nostalgic watch, Four Kings, Bruno, Benn, Eubank and Lewis.

 

I think it's quite recent, Zico, as I read a (very good) review of it in The Guardian yesterday.

It is actually very recent, my mistake, thought I had seen it before but definitely not, it is new.  I'm up to episode 3 of 4 and it's very good although obviously quite sad in parts.
