Anyone watched Bates Motel on Netflix? Started watching it the other day.  I've only watched two but it seems an interesting take on the story.  Although a prequel to psycho it's set in modern times... not too sure how well that works so far.

Line of duty tonight was the best hour of TV I've watched in a long time, 90 minutes finale next week during which a certain someone will hopefully get their long overdue comeuppance

All filmed in Belfast too, as were all of the previous ones
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Quality Television.

Started Billions last night. Top quality opening and end to the first episode. It looks a bit "Wolf of Wall Street" ish but it's a good cast I think I'll stick with it.

Absolutely gripping. This whole series has been excellent as was the last series. It's a long time since I looked forward so much to each episode of a tv series.

Started watching Sleeper Cell this week.  Great show so far. A grittier version of Homeland without the Carrie nonsense.

Amazing stuff. It's just a tv show but I was shouting at the tv for her to send the picture message! The best show in years.

Game of Thrones back last night. All material new to book readers so interesting/confusing.

4 episodes into the new season of Banshee. It took a couple to get up and running but episodes 3 and 4 were brilliant, great show

Well not all, but i get what you mean.  They've still to cover a lot of the greyjoy stuff that was excluded from the last series.  It's great to have it back though!!

Nothing that happened in last night's episode had been covered in the books as far as I can recall.

Great finish to Line of Duty. Ted Hastings does not part you soft!

Fleming must be in some nick to run from the bottom of Royal Avenue to Tates Avenue in that space of time!!!!

That series is up there with the best TV I've seen absolutely first class all round... Laddie!!
