"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?"

It's an opinion

This  pretentious shite  is all style over substance..is poorly cast with bland shit actors.

I enjoyed the Responder with Martin Freeman but it’s a bit manic! Though a totally different thing, the intensity of the main character is not dissimilar to Adam Sandler in the movie Uncut Gems ( great movie btw) in that it’s exhausting to watch at times!!!

Yep, still a good watch. I see Line of Duty is coming back.

Going to give The Responder a go with Martin Freeman, hear that it's good.
I think I might join you ..(the responder).

Appreciate the offer, but will probably watch alone.

Quite enjoying the Franchise. Richard E Grant is Hammer isn't he? 

Day Of the Jackal featuring Eddie Redmayne kicked off yesterday so looking forward to watching that.

Get Shorty passed me by too - and after a bit of a Google I found this article on a few good shows that people seem to be totally unaware of their existence.

Justified - City Primeval

Not as good as the original, but perfectly OK and nice to see Raylan in the old stetson again.

IRL no way does the ugly, fat, black lawyer get to pull Timothy Olyphaunt, I suspect. Nursie will adjudicate, I'm sure.

Finished first series of Blue Lights  - I started to struggle with it a bit and the hour long episodes. I get they are trying to make it feel 'real' grizzly Belfast, and all that, but ultimately the viewer wants to be entertained, it's just a bit too 'serious' and in some a little depressing. Line of Duty is way better.
