TV Show recommendations

[Frank_The_Tank]

Anyone still watch the walking dead?

Still watching yeah - A guy I know reads the comics as well and says the last character death on TV show a major shift away from what happens in the comics.

Watching Money Heist on Netflix there - its a Spanish show but I changed the Audio to English - its dubbed over but is fine - good watch - 13 episodes in season 1 - looking forward to season 2 although no word on when it is due to be on Netflix,

I have really enjoyed Young offenders.
Alot of daft humour in it, but it is very funny.

It is beginning to feel a lot like lost bm. Waiting on something good to happen but hasn't yet.

Glad i am not the only one suffering!

Frank i guess they had to deviate from the comic somewhere.

I have no idea how they end the walking dead. Said the same on dexter and it ended really badly.

I watched The Killing (Danish) following recommendations here.  I see there is a Season 2; is that also worth watching?

Season 2 & 3 (Danish) both well worth watching.

The first 20 part season is really two seasons in one.
Whilst season 2 and 3 are well worth watching they do drop off the pace set in the 20 episode  first season.
The 20 episode first season just had a good tempo, a dynamism throughout, with a perfect blend of city politics, social issues and a missing girl investigation.

I was just talking to Mrs Boots about this last night - we finished watching Season-2 of Modus which was on BBC4 recently.  It had ten episodes, but it should have been six - it got seriously ponderous and pointless in the middle, but was quite interesting at the start and the end.  We compared it to The Killing Season-1, and thought it should have been more like Seasons-2&-3.

I've never got into these murder porn series. How many ways can you tell a story about a murder and a troubled cop? There's nearly as many of them as there is police procedurals now, which is clearly what shows like the Killing were a response to in the first place.

Altered Carbon, the first couple of episodes are a brain melt as you try to process the story line and the science but the payback is definitely worth it. A kinda Blade Runner meets the Killing and Martha Higareda is a serious woman.

Watched LA92 on Netflix earlier.

Very tough watch in parts in what was a completely ducked up situation all round.

Not much has changed in some parts nowadays mind you

I thought Joel Kinnaman was fantastic in the lead role. Some rough edges but his performance carries the show.

Definitely worth the watch, if only to remember that it wasn't all that long ago.


Been watching Versailles. Enjoyable, but somewhat slow. Finishing up Season 1.

Versailles is the only period drama type I've actually enjoyed.

The Funeral Murders on BBC2 was totally compelling. Remember the time well and must bring back some memories for MR2 etc from the area.

The footage from the Corporal Murders remains one of my most vivid memories of the troubles ,  bleak ,dark times
