"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?"

"I haven't got round to second season of Daredevil. Will do soon though. It was King Pin who annoyed me most if honest. Though, fight scenes were pretty immense and worth watching for alone, even if the story line isn't the strongest at times (IMO of course)."

"Daredevil has some absolutely incredible fight scenes, especially in the 2nd series, daredevil vs the biker gang and punisher in the prison are just amazing!"

"Love BCS too, some great acting throughout. I've just started Preacher. Looks decent from the first episode. I also enjoyed Lucifer, Tom Ellis is well suited to the role."

Jessica Jones is very enjoyable. Daredevil a bit overrated. Better Call Saul absolutely brilliant. Vikings very much worth a watch.

"Miike Seen both series of Daredevil. I enjoyed it, lots of decent action sequences. Give Jessica Jones a watch if you haven't seen it, I really liked it."

Currently crushing Game of Thrones. Much better than I was expecting given the whole knights and wizards genre not really my thing.

"New Walter Presents thing, Magnifica 70, set in Brazil 1970, apparently about a Government censor who falls in love with a porn star. (Actually, that sounds a bit shit, but I'll give it a chance, anyway.) On Ch4's online only thing, All 4."

"I've gone on about this a few times, but I will mention it one more time. Saturday night, I finally watched the last ever episode of Gary Shandling's ""The Larry Sanders Show."" Now I've seen it all, I have to say it is quite possibly the best ever TV comedy ever. I put it up with Fawlty Towers and all the other big boys of TV comedy. Class scipt in every episode, and class performances from top to bottom. I think they managed to stop at just the right time without repeating themselves. I'm am now gutted , as there are no more to watch, and after the tragically early death of Gary Shandling a few weeks back, there will be no more. I'm reading Terry Pratchett's last book right now, and am dreading the same thing with that. I'll wait a year and start from S1E1 again."

If you haven't seen Penny Dreadful I'd recommend it. Eva Green is pretty awesome in it.

"watched the first few episodes of season 2 of Bloodline. not as good now Mendelsohn's not fully involved but the character Kevin seems to be getting funnier, even though it's probably not intentional"

"I reckon over 20 episodes of the Tunnel, the subtitles appear only a handful of times. Every cսnt speaks English and because of the English plod, they are made too for his benefit."

"I watched Line of Fire last month and thought it was superb. I was recommended The Tunnel recently, which seemed similar, but I watched the first episode and it's set half in England and half in France. I don't do subtitles, so it got the sack, but it looks fucking excellent."

"Miller Showbox had an issue recently, not sure what happened but I recall reading a tweet that said something like 'years or work down the drain in a matter of hours'. I only really use it on my phone now as I find it quite annoying that whatever you watch seems to be split into 7 parts and the jump between parts is annoying, at home I tend to use Exodus and SALTS mainly."

"Homeland is one new project that I was thinking of taking on, but it's just too much catch up now for me. 3 seasons max is my ballpark."
