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?"

[violator]

Halfway through "Last Kind Of The Cross"...not too bad, some of it is a bit naff, but there's violence and tits.

[Council Scum]

Having finally got round to Ozark. Enjoying it so far. 

[collyrob]

Loved Landman overall. But just finished the last episode of the season. And it was so fucking boring. 80 minutes of fuck all

[Alfs]

Yeah I watched about 20mins and switched off. There is acually no good series out there since The Studio. 

Check out Smoke on Apple.

Thanks Alfs. Three episodes into Smoke and I like it. Bit slow but what can I say they are all slow burners these days....excuse the pun

I agree, but the review I read says it starts of slowly but the tension ratches up as it goes along.

As it's a TV thread just thought I would plonk this on here.  Found out recently from someone that if you have had your Sky dish for years and it's gertting on a bit Sky would replace it for nothing.  I don't have any insurance with them so didn't really believe it, but a quick live chat last week and today an engineer installed a brand new one and took the old one away for nothing.  Least they could do considering the price you pay!!  So if you need a new dish and are with Sky just give them a shout and you will get a new one.

Although its a film really struggled with Mountainhead, wanted to like it but just couldnt

[Swiss.]

Yeah Dept. Q is good, Will check out Four Seasons as well. 

[Council Scum]

Really enjoyed The Four Seasons, Great cast and Tina Fey is a great writer 

[Swiss.]

Dope Thief like a lot of these series has just limped along after a good start.

Been retro watching stuff from my youth in the UK.

Binge watching Shine on Harvey Moon at the moment, another classic from the 80,s, in the last few months the whole catalogue has been added to YouTube

TBH has not dated and still a very VERY good watch, loads of familiar faces, Elizibeth Spriggs though as Nan is superb, Witzend productions also made Auf Wiedershen Pet, another 80,s classic, but Harvey Moon used to pull 18 million plus viewers when it aired, not too shabby by any measure!.

highly recommend both for anyone not old enough to remember

no idea if run by ITV but there's an ITV Retro channel on youtube and it's uploading episodes of The Prisoner. it's brilliant stuff if you haven't seen it

Loved Dept Q, even though it did tick a lot of the woke boxes. 

[honky cat]

Despite my hatred of Edinburgh and the fact that Mathhew Goode is a good actor I will give it a go on the sound advice of my WHO comrades. 

 

That's the spirit.
3 more episodes to go so will prob finish it tonight.
I'm a Big fan of Akram.

Dept Q is brilliant.

Good humour in it which always helps me enjoy something more.

[Swiss.]

I too am enjoying Dept Q.  I wasn't even aware it was set in Edinburgh but refusing to watch a show because of it's location is a bit odd..

Also enjoying Stick on Apple.  

It's just personal as I spent 4 months working there for a client in St Andrews Sq. I stayed at The Wavely Hotel near the station. The Scots hate us and I hate them. The boozers are naff and all it does it rain and the wind never stops. The architure is bleak and miserable.
