"Finished The Night Of, it is decent, some good characters, and is a good 'who done it' plot line. Found it dragged a bit though but it just about held my interest, thought the ending was a bit lame. if you've got 9 hours it's a decent shout."

"Billy - Boardwalk is superb, some really nasty cunts in it, to be expected though of course. Steve Buscemi is superb as Nucky. BCS only has one episode left, it's been fucking riveting. Blackbird is better though :-)"

"Finished 13 Boys. Despite knowing the ending before I started it, it was riveting. Brilliantly written by Bill Nicholson, probably one of the best British screenwriters of his generation. Though I did find the bits when one of the divers kept stopping off to bugger the boys a bit uncomfortable."

"Good shout Ted, only need his bonkers daughter as his sidekick and all would be well in the world. Manuel. I think Wags and Chucks Dad are two of the best 'evil bastard' characters Iv'e seen in a long time and yes,Wendy is a fucking sort. Nearing the end of series 3 and its still doing enough to keep me in there. Boardwalk empire and BCS next for me."

"Billy - Yes some cracking storylines in it, but most will say that after season 2 it got a bit shit and it was just the same old plots/rivalries, etc and it got tired. But I stuck with anyway it and just have the last season to watch. Dollar Bill is a good character, and of course the main man. And Wendy is a grrrrrr. Her husband is another good character too, always scheming something and trying to bring Axe down, usually backed up by his old man."
