"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?"

"Snowfall is seriously good, and Brit lad Danson Idris is superb as Franklin. As much as I mock conspiracy nuts, the fact that the US government/CIA flooded their own inner cities with cocaine/crack in order to fund the Contras never ceases to repulse. But then where there's something rotten in the world, you can be sure the stench comes from the CIA. And even as a crack skank, Mel would still get it. Series 4 is in Feb."

Watched the first 2 episodes of Brian Cranston’s new show “Your honor” absolutely brilliant. The opening scene is one of the best I’ve ever seen.

only1billybonds 1:24 Sat Dec 19 Agreed but I though the Tim Curry TV special of IT was good. If you like Seinfeld you'll love Curb.

"Just watched 'the looming tower', was pretty good - Jeff Daniels is in it so it generally cant be bad. Finished the night manager. Not as good as some reviews in my opinion, but I always think Hugh Laurie is limited and the lead bloke is a bit wooden."

"Giri/Haji on Netflix is quite good and worth a watch, think it was made for BBC2. Although the bumming scene is a bit odd, not sure how it fits in or why they did it? mind you if it was made by the BBC, obviously to help the cause and make such things ok, its full on as well, one bloke pumping the other..."
