"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?"

The missis has got us watching the Epstein thing. There were a lot of people with filthy hands enabling him to abuse those girls. Some of them were on the documentary pretending they were innocent bystanders. The artist who took pictures of her 12 year old sister naked was a sick fucker who should be locked up herself. Haven't got to the 2008 case yet.

"Just watched 404 code with Mays in. I mean clearly not amazing, but I like him and Stephen Graham and was an easy 3 hours worth if tv. Both chaps for whom I'd give any programme a go if they're in them."

"Swiss - Funny enough, I was tempted to say that Danny Mays was the exception. I like him, makes me laugh. If he wasn't in it I would have definitely binned it early doors."

Just finished watching Epstein in Netflix. I know we had a thread on this but can't be arsed to find it. All I can say is he must have been able or even still could posthumously compromise some seriously powerful people. The 2008 Florida deal was unbelievable. Suicide...no way

"Swiss - Yea suppose so, I got mixed up as 80's stuff being played. As for it being 'good' nah, it was awful really with shocking acting, but as I said watchable."

Manuel The flashbacks were early 2000s. I thought White Lines was good fun. Sort of It's All Gone Peter Tong meets El Dorado. I liked El Dorado.

"Yea, won't bother with Lilly Hammer. You can't commit to 36 episodes of something that is just ok, at best. I suppose some are tv addicts that will watch anything."

"White lines = eldarado with drugs. Shit. Lilly Hammer ..great ? No. Springsteen's make is so hammy. Harmless watch all the same. A much better option would be, Barrry"

"Same, thought white lines was okish, just about watchable. I started lillyhammer, gave up after episode 2. Thought it was absolute dog shit, same with queen of the south."

"Watched the new Netflix's White Lines, it's pretty crap with shocking acting, but somehow still watchable, probably because it's set in Ibiza with plenty of flashbacks to the 80's etc. Only the one series too. Thinking about giving Lily Hammer a go, looks like it could be good but have never heard of anyone talking about it much (a few people on this thread aside)?"

I thought season one of Ozark was excellent. Season 2 started to really drag in the middle and by the end it was so relentlessly depressing for all the characters I've kind of given with watching season 3

"The Last Dance is good, if you like massively OTT American histrionics over a shit sport. Its interesting enough finding out about Michael Jordan and what a competitor he was, but fucking hell, talk about over dramatising events. Still, we followed suit post 96..... AGUEEERRRROOOOOOO"

Just finished 3 seasons of Mr Mercedes which I recommend. I thought it was very good. Lots of fucked up stuff going on.

Hermit... yeah I noticed seasons 3 and 4 are in a new college in kansas IIRC?? Half way through season 2 ... superb viewing... have to say the 100 bloke brawl v Mississippi Delta will live long in my memory... fair play all those that joined in and helped their mates out ... made the old Sunday morning league dust ups of old look tame!!

Northern Sold 1:21 Tue May 26 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommen Excellent series and so was the second. After a while they moved to a different college with a massive tit as Head coach so the series rapidly became unwatchable.

"Chill - She’s a decent actress, I just don’t like the way they’ve changed her character. Rossal - Are you saying it doesn’t improve after Season 3 Episode 3? If that’s the case i may not bother finishing it"
