"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?"

"The Playlist gets a thumbs up from me. It’s the story of Spotify, worth watching just for the Sony bosses stunning assistant."

Liked the little nod to John singleton with them filming Boyz n the hood on the streets right at the end.

"Don, they ended it superbly, as said I thought the last season was possibly the best of the lot. Very rarely can that be said."

Jim 79 Superb weren’t it. One of my favourite tv series. Thought they ended it well as well.

"Just finished the final season of Snowfall, fucking brilliant. I've been a fan of it all the way through but I thought the final season was potentially the best of the lot and you could see they had considerably more money put in to the production by the final season compared to the early ones. Well worth watching for anyone who hasn't seen it and in fact im gonna go back and watch it all from the start again now I can do so without having to wait for new seasons to be launched, etc."

"Side - It is not off the charts good, no chance, but it is the best thing I've seen for a while. I'm not an ''undercooker'' at all, was only this week on the film thread saying how brilliant a film was I just viewed. And don't get me started on shows like Gomorrah/Sopranos/Prison Break/Breaking Bad, Justified, Narcos, The Wire Banshee etc. All a level or two above Slow Horses."

Another thumbs up for Hijack. Was skeptical at first but it's a must watch. Watched the first two eps of the new Justified and was underwhelmed.

"So the new Justified is out, might have a gander if I can stream it well. Halfway through Slow Horses series 2. Is it good? yes. Is it any more than that? No. Worth watching just for Lamb, though."

"Yeah i'm another for Hijack. Not a fan of Slow Horses, but It's good to see British TV get a bigger production budget on par with US."

Sold people just do nothing is superb. The one where they open up a nightclub is brilliant.

"jfk - Yep it's good, but after the first 2 episodes, which I thought were pretty tense, I thought it tailed off a little with the run of the mill car chases and punch up's etc, but that's probably me over analyzing it. I think series 3 is out end of year, a fourth series has been confirmed too."

"Manuel,thought both series were top notch so much so I’ve read the Mick Herron books where Jackson Lamb(Oldman) is even more obnoxious.Highly recommended. Hope a third series is imminent."

"Slow Horses - Finished series 1, it's decent but it started to get what I would call ''a bit ''silly'' with some unrealistic scenes/story-lines, etc, but it's good enough to continue with."

My daughter got us in People Just do Anything... about dickheads who run a pirate radio station in Brentford... some serious LOLing very reminiscent of the Office... their Asian manager is one of the funniest fuckers on TV. 5 series all on iplayer.
