"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?"

"Godfather of Harlem is decent, a great cast too. For all those who've seen American Gangster, it's about Bumpy Johnson."

THEM is a hard watch! Very well made but pretty hard hitting! Was it really that bad in 50s LA

"Alborg I got half way through episode one of that ""Mare"" thing and fell asleep. There's slow burner and a snoozer and it's the later. Saw The Disappearance - Canadian series..missing kid etc. Was pretty good."

Personally I thought season 8 was okay. 9 is pretty shit though.

"Yes - obviously Scott is a major character, but still worth perceiving with it as it’s amusing watching the different cast members fighting for control of the Manager's role. Ties up nicely at the end."

"I obviously meant *unconvincing. He was even a petrified little girl after his old man told him to shoot a nobody - as all good fathers do.The only time I got excited watching it was when the fat cսnt was battered, but even then the soppy writer cunts couldn't even do me a favour and finish him off. Each to their own and all that but BAH!"

"I liked the way Gommorah shows the grim reality of the existence below being a mafia boss. Genny was deliberately put up as being a Mummy's boy and you can look up real mafia bosses in Naples to find just as many of them look unconvincing as bosses. The 'Hipster' is there as a character to show how broad their network can be and the writing must have hit a raw nerve somewhere as the cսnt is in hiding under protection. Each to their own though, it's what makes life interesting."

"Well as unpopular as this may be, I found Gomorrah to be mostly over-rated tosh. Genny - the fat, heavy breathing, mummy's boy slob, was one of the most convincing mob bosses you'll ever see - no actually it's the tart (I would) who was promoted to boss with zero experience other than being a fucking messenger girl for a few weeks. Or maybe it was the Hipster helmet. A FUCKING HIPSTER! The acting was mostly shit, the writing - as if every cսnt has magical telepathic powers - was often laughable, and the 'let's stare into each others eyes looking hard for hours on end whilst saying fuck all' was toe-curling. A steaming pile of WOP-WANK Narcos however is great fun."

"Only just watched Gangs of London and enjoyed it for the nonsense it was, with the Irish pikey being hunted down by the Danish nutters the best episode. Fucking size of the bloke in the last one dishing out the torture!!!"
