Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls

[HairySpotter]

"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?"

[only1billybonds]

Bosch was very good, very true to the series of novels written with him as the main character.

[Council Scum]

I've been watching Fallout, I don't mind it. 

[happygilmore]

really enjoying BOSCH

​​​​​​haven't watched Yellowstone yet, but did watch some episodes of the prequels. 1883 was a decent idea but went nowhere, and I thought that 1923 thing was unwatchable shit

The first few seasons of BOSCH are very good.

Tails off a bit later. The daughter is one of the most unconvincing actors ever.

[Council Scum]

Watched all 4 seasons of Ozark over the last few weeks. I'd given up after a couple of episodes when it first came out as it just seemed like a retread of Breaking Bad. Turns out that the family (especially the wife) is a lot more interesting than in BB and it's way darker and faster paced. 

Same with me mate, gave up first time round, then sat back down last summer and watched it. Really enjoyed it.

Slow Horses is brilliant and Oldman has created one of the best characters in recent yrs in Lamb.

Manuel, you should stick with Industry as it gets better and there is a fair amount of Trading Floor activity over the first 2 seasons, less so from season 3 onwards but there's only so much of a story you could tell and keep Joe Public interested in if it was only based in the office. I've worked on Trading Floors for best part of 3 decades and a show only based on that would get pretty boring and certainly wouldn't stretch to 4 seasons. Its definitely one of the best things on TV for my money.

Fair play, Jim, and take your point. Will give it some more time.

The last episode of Landman was very good, but a strange series that not a lot happened in but still a decent watch. 

Just binged all of slow horses too, bloody brilliant. 

Yea SH is great, albeit I thought it went steadily downhill. There are more series' to come.

I thought last season was really good of SH. The season before with the French stuff was a bit naff.

Industry season 4 is already top draw and probably the best thing on Television. Brilliant how they have evolved the characters from season 1 being wet behind the ears post-grads to where they are now. Kit Harrington was brilliant in last nights episode, gutted I've got to wait a week to watch the next instalment. 

Gave up after 2 episodes. I'd never heard of it before (but now I know why) until it was mentioned on here. Fuck me what a load of pretentious, bent bollocks. I thought it would be mainly about the trading floor and not a soap opera revolving around the casts personal lives. Utter shite.

The most important scene so far is when Coleman and Hiddleston go to recognise the body and only Coleman is allowed in. I recon Roper did a deal with MI5. You'll see my genius of deduction later. 

Well FMOB!

Well I was kinda right. I swear I hadn't seen episode 3 when I posted this. Episode 4 was excellent. 

Any doubts that this series might have been crap vanished in that one moment. ''Absooooolutely, Jose old boy''

Not seen 4 yet.

[Swiss.]

I liked season 1 of Absentia. A few episodes into season 2 but it ain't working for me.

[Swiss.]

I would also agree with that so far but only 2 episodes in. I think Roper makes an appearance soon .

Must be something to do with ownership or something unless someone somewhere didn't want them repeated.

From Google:

The 1988-1991 TV series Midnight Caller, starring Gary Cole, is generally not available as an official DVD release due to significant copyright issues, particularly concerning music and its jazz score, which prevent legitimate re-releases or streaming.

[zico]

Thanks Mmg,,,  Yeah it's a bugger to find.  Did find full episodes on You Tube and settled down but it was dubbed in a foreign language!  Another one I was looking for was Midnight Caller but that's now appeared on Ebay.  Must be something to do with ownership or something unless someone somewhere didn't want them repeated.

If anyone knows where I can find a UK version of "Petrocelli" on DVD can they let me know.  Would love to see it again, one of my fave shows as a kid, but even tracking the DVD box set down at an affordable price would be a tough one even for Indiana Jones!

 

 

 

 

Zico.

Sadly not a UK version.

Yea, thats the one. Cant really remember much more about it.

[Hello Mrs. Jones]

If you happen to be, like me, married then you might have had to suffer the completely unwatchable Riot Women. Combine, Full Monty, Calendar Girls and Brassed off into one bore fest and youv'e got it. And don't get me started on fucking Hijack

[MaryMillingtonsGhost]

Was Petrocelli the series where he was building his own house, seemingly by one brick per episode?

[only1billybonds]

Zico.

I vauguely remember Petrocelli, mainly because my ex mother in law demanded total silence in the room when it was on.

If you like a good detective series  give Bosch and Goliath a go,both on Prime.
