Better Call Saul S2 on Netflix from Tuesday.

Looking forward to it. Really enjoyed thrcfirst series and think it eclipsed BB. Episode 6 that focused on Mike's backstory was phenomenal!
I gave up about 4 episodes in. Might get back on it. House of Cards should be due back soon too.

Excellent start to the show!! Great music an intriguing storyline and a few bombs way out of left field.

Ray Romano getting a bit darker too freaked the shit out of me!!!

Vinyl was top quality stuff.

Anybody watching Lucky Man?? I'm actually quite enjoying it even though Jimmy Nesbitt's in it.

Madam Secretary is starting to come into its own a bit as well I thought it was a poor man's West Wing but I'm really liking this season.

Also with a lack of shows at the minute I've started watching the West Wing again . . . fantastic television!!

Started it the other night - so far, so good.  But i really, really dislike Sissy Spacek (for the last 30something years), so I might have trouble sticking with it.

Its quite slow going at the start, but i am up to episode 11 of 13 now and the last couple have been superb

Jesus stop!! I don't need more suggestions I've been trying to wean myself off a plethora of things to watch so I could get it down to a more manageable level.

The staying up until 3-4am during the week to binge watch Narcos/Breaking Bad/The Wire etc. couldn't keep continuing or I would have gotten sacked or divorced or both!!

I have been doing the same the past while, got through all the shows that I wanted to from the past (did BB and Dexter last year, Sopranos 3 years ago and now SOA this past few months).  All I watch now is shows I have on a week by week basis for years, not taking anymore on.  My list has shrunk something seriously.  People I know can;t understand how I was glad to finish BB, Dexter etc - I enjoyed them but too much of an addiction every night.     I think at one time I had 20 odd shows on the go (not on at the same time of the year obviously), but with cancellations and shows finishing I am down to the 100, Saul, Walking Dead, Blacklist, GOT, Person of Interest, Leftovers and Peaky Blinders could be stuck there too.
