"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?"

"I am enjoying Tokyo Vice at the moment on the BBC, first episode is directed by Michael Mann and it stars the Baby Driver star and Ken Wantanabe. I like seeing films of the Japanese underworld for a change. I also thought Giri/Hiji was very good and now on Netflix."

Thought All Quiet on the Western Front was superb how fortunate that we were born when we were and still we don't learn with Putin the cnut being responsible for so many innocent lives.

"Can't find anything to float my boat at the moment. Gave Nine Perfect Strangers a go but wasn't for me, neither was The English. Started Season 2 of the Handmaid's tale but it seems a bit like season 1, cruelty heaped upon cruelty. Hanging on for Happy Valley 3, thought the first two were some of the best TV I've seen."

[Northern Sold]

Agreed Jim… thought it was magnificent… and a 100 times better than that joke fabricated series the BBC have done about the start of the SAS

I know its not a box set but the recent addition of All Quiet on the Western Front is really something. Wow what a harrowing but incredible film. You just cannot begin to understand how wars like that and WWII happened and how they were relatively not long ago. Its like something from a different universe these days. Effected me in the same way as Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers. I watched it with the English dubbing on and it was really good esp as i could focus on the action rather than reading subtitles. Dubbing appears to have come a long way from the days of Bruce Lee movies.

"Yes, the hotel manager is well off, I find the two hookers irritating too. The other characters ar fine. You wouldn't kick Aubrey Plaza out of bed!"

[Alfs]

"Agree with you, Manuel, re The White Lotus. Though it would have been difficult to surpass the performance of the gay Aussie drug/alcohol addict. Still enjoying season 2 though. Yellowstone 5 is no where near as good as the earlier seasons, but I'll stick with it."

[Swiss.]

I'm glad that Egg from This Life has made a good living from The Walking Dead.

[Manuel]

"Cheers, bell."

[bell]

"He was yeah. She never forgave him, but he saved her kids life, so she let him live."

[Manuel]

"Mortph - Yea shocking violence. Wasn't Negan in it to the end, if so how did he last so long, did Maggie forgive him etc? Bell?"

[Morpheus]

"Last straw for me with Walking Dead was Negan knocking out Glens eye with a baseball bat, gross and very unnecessary"

[bell]

"I felt an obligation out of stubbornness I guess. Had some decent moments in the final few series, but nowhere near as good as series 1-5"

[Manuel]

"Bell - Blimey, you stuck with it all the way! I gave up circa season 7 it just become plain shit. I will find the last ever episode though and might view it."

[bell]

"Final episode of The Walking Dead, in its current guise aired last night. Had its ups and downs, but I stuck with it, and enjoyed the finale."

[Manuel]

"Sam - No mate, heard them mentioned though, might read up on them. Will likely watch The Engish next."

[Son of Sam]

Agree Manuel 100% with all that but did you try Severance or The Devil's Hour?

[Manuel]

"Nags - Yea, as I have said a few times now I haven't seen anything really top draw for a long time now, probably the last season of Gomorrah, I thought The Offer was decent, as was Dahmer, and the new The White Lotus is a good yarn, although not as good as the first one."

[Nagel]

"Yeah, it's 6. Personally thought it trailed off a bit in the last 2 episodes but overall it was very good. Great acting and cinematography."

[Manuel]

Going to give The English a go. Is it 6 episodes?

[only1billybonds]

"jfk. Me too, I'm on episode 3, very good so far."

Five Days at Memorial is a really good miniseries worth watching. It's about the events at a New Orleans hospital during hurricane Katrina.
