Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls

[HairySpotter]

"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?"

[Takashi Miike]

"that's why I watched it. it's not terrible but does seem a bit rushed, give it a go. as per usual, he is very good"

Takashi Miike 1:52 Tue Dec 18 Thanks for the heads up. I am a fan of Kim Coates from way back and including Son of Anarchy but he has done some stinkers along the way.

Bad Blood isn't too good

If you want something rare - a Canadian show that is not rubbish: I just finished the third series of Travelers on Netflix. One of my favourite sci-fi premises of recent years and decently well acted. Thinking of starting Bad Blood next.

I know its not new but I liked Six feet Under...a easy watch.

[Nurse Ratched]

:-)

"Mine too. *blinks third eye, wipe it with middle left limb"""

[Nurse Ratched]

Yup.

[gph]

Looking up the ancestors?

I would head for the Burgess Shale. Assuming I could get a permit.

[ironsofcanada]

"Gph If only. My mother- in-law loves the show but not sure if that is because it is filmed near where she lives. Partially filmed really, the parts where the mountains are right there are in Waterton near where my mom lives. (If any of you travel, pick Waterton over Banff, Jasper or even Kananaskis these days. The tourism is there but not as bad yet and you can still find some nature not dolled up. Unless you go for skiing, I guess.)"

Tin Star's not bad. Makes Canada seem like trench warfare - long periods of boredom punctuated by extreme violence (can't remember whose description of WW1 I'm ripping off here - sorry)

[Nurse Ratched]

Dan I enjoyed The Kosminsky Method.

[claret on my shirt]

Quarry is very good

[JAC]

Just started watching Haunting of Hill House...very good so far....very jumpy too.

[Northern Sold]

Dan M 11:05 Tue Nov 27 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls Another vote for Haunting of Hill House. Just finished the Luke episode. Anyone see Gogglebox with THE CAR episode... Ha ha ha.... I swear a couple of them actually emptied themselves on the sofa...

[Dan M]

"Another vote for Haunting of Hill House. Just finished the Luke episode. If you fancy something warm and funny then The Kominsky Method is very much worth a watch. Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin on very good form. Written by Chuck Lorre, the chap behind Two and a half Men."

[Peckham]

"Better Call Saul season 4. Ending with Jimmys closing line - "" It´s ( Saul ) all Good Man."" Excellent. Did not think the Spin off could last 4 seasons. Bob Odenkirk plays the character to perfection. Nice seeing the build up of the Gus empire and also Mike in it, another great character created by the writers. Was gutted he was written off in breaking bad. My memory is terrible was Mike an ex policeman or soldier, is there a series in Breaking Bad or Call Saul I have missed giving more detail of his past and how he ended up doing what he does in Albuquerque? Mr Mercedes or Billions? Which is the most entertaining or gripping? Trust WHO more so than Rotten tomatoes etc, seen some good films and docs etc from here. For light entertainment,comedy and good characters ,before I found Curb, I found the box-set the first 3 series of Arrested Development amusing. Mr Mercedes or Billions?"

[crystal falace]

"Completely agree regarding Mr Mercedes, I absolutely loved the first season with how dark and sinister the whole thing was, got 1 and a half episodes into season 2 and he starts mind controlling people from his coma. Should have just ended it after season 1"

[Manip]

Northern Sold 11:58 Wed Nov 21 Went for Stranger Things yesterday and ended up watching the whole of season 1 and 2 episodes of season 2 after getting mashed Friday and Saturday. Excellent series. Whats your next recommendation Sold?

"Another vote for 'Billions' I'd never heard of it, until a couple of weeks ago. I watched 7 or 8 episodes on route from Brisbane to LAX, and the same number on the way back. It certainly helped the time pass a bit quicker. Or, at least seem to, before some PEDANT feels the need to comment."
