"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?"

Just discovered The Walking Dead. Only 13 years late. 11 season. It's amazing.

Latest episode of The Last of Us was a bit crap. Have just finished Series 2 of Fauda - loving it. The doctor bird in it is a bit of me too.

Tehran is an excellent contemporary spy drama on Apple TV. You really feel the jeopardy of the characters in a hostile world. Do avoid Liaison on Apple though. Its dire

"""That Fulda is just a bunch of pro Israeli propaganda . Is ok to start shooting unarmed Palestinians at a wedding . Utter garbage ."" It's not, if you gave it time to develop. The acting isn't great, but its very good."

"Logan Roy is a vile fucker who has married, sired or employed a bunch of other vile fuckers. They are all just different vile fuckers which irritates Logan. Repeat and rinse. Perhaps the nephew isn't vile but he's a hopeless fucker who, for some bizarre reason, decides to hang around with these vile fuckers."

Gutting it’s the last season. Superb show. Glad they have the courage to actually end it when they feel it should end rather than dragging it out just for more money and the sake of it. Part of the art of telling a good story is knowing when and how to end it correctly.

"Swiss. 6:42 Wed Feb 22 ''That Fuada is just a bunch of pro Israeli propaganda . Is ok to start shooting unarmed Palestinians at a wedding . Utter garbage'' Must admit due to it being hyped on here so much I gave it a go, admittedly I only gave it 30 minutes but knew it wouldn't be for me, the acting was very wooden too. I haven't seen anything really good in a long while, well except Gold on BBC."

"El Scorchio 7:23 Wed Feb 22 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls I think you might be reading into things a bit too much. Jaan kenbrovin, can you please be a little more careful about spoiling the show for people who never played the game."

"New Jersey 5:18 Tue Feb 21 Agree. Better was awful. Never ceases to amaze me how companies will spend millions on location filming, cinematography, editing and in some cases talent yet overlook the key elements of story and script. It became simply dreadful by the end. I got the impression the cast couldn't get out of it quickly enough Then again, some football clubs spend millions on players and don't even know where to play them"

"Cheers for that Duke, I will give them a go. I quite like the occasional Aussie series, really enjoyed the Newsroom which was on BBC I player a bit back and the Top of the Lake with Elizabeth Moss of Hand Maids Tale fame playing the detective."

El Scorchio 7:23 Wed Feb 22 The Joel thing was inevitable after the second game. They've just accelerated it to lessen the shit transition to a what will become a shit tv show aimed soilely at 'minorities'.

"The destruction of Joel's character surely reached it's nadir last night. They really are going out of their way to present him as a bitter, twisted, sad, lonely pathetic and useless old man. So far removed from the character in the game and his balanced and nuanced relationship with Ellie, who by the way is an extraordinarily vile unlikeable brat of a mary sue. Again far removed from the original. Doesn't help that Bella Ramsay is terrible as well. The first 10 minutes is just Joel getting disobeyed, bossed around, proven wrong outsmarted and got the better of by a child. (She then laughably goes on to outwit the leader of the commune with all her 13 years of life experience and virtually none of it outside a QZ) Then Joel is shown to be unable to accept his brother is happy and also comes across as a bit racist, ironic as you have to assume his wife was African American given the complexion of his own daughter, then he just slopes off and literally cries about it and gets morose before once again a child dominates him in a a short argument and somehow that alone 'fixes' him and all his issues. Absolute fucking god awful trash that doesn't even make sense. As someone who loves the games I am so disappointed about how they've chosen to represent the two lead character, especially as the bloke who wrote the fucking game is co writing the series."
