I watched the first part of a 3-part story and Fred and Rose West last night. It started by analysing both their parents and then reviewing their early years. Quite fascinating.

Why can such gruesome stories be so appealing?

What channel was that on?

Watched TT3D: Closer to the Edge on late Sat night.

Really enjoyed it. Was up there with "Road"

Halfwayish through Gotham. Tempted to bluebutton it . Seems to be really going nowhere tbh and I see there is close on 20 episodes in it.

Might give Sons of Anarchy another go after the carcrash that was S4 set alot in "Ireland".

Its one of two shows I have ever binned (Fortitude being the other).  I usually stick with a show if I have watched a few, but deleted it after the 12th episode.



Binned it alright. Not a massively poor show but just couldn't see where it was going especially as it seemed to be moving towards 20 episodes. Sean Pertwee very good as Alfred. Always an excellent actor.

Started The Boss. Excellent so far. Can't believe I didn't come across it before.

Been watching The Affair on Sky.. seems decent enough so far, good plot (not just the obvious one) but I'm getting the odd glance/stare from the missus !!! not recommended if youve been a naughty boy
Fantastic show & I know what u mean with the other.

have been watching it myself....a slow burner but very good.

another show i was watching on netflix was prison break,first few series were very addictive but have binned it after 4th...started to drag out the same old story time and time again.

Homeland- arguably the best there is.

I gave up on homeland after about season 3 I think. Started getting shit but from the reports and reviews of people it seems to have picked up after that bad spell. The affair is a good show. Wouldn't watch it with the wife though haha

Watching entourage for the second time. Easy show to watch and ari gold is hilarious.

That was never a square ball!!

Game of Thrones is just superb, getting better with each episode  imo. Episode  8 is a clinker.

Just finished the first two series of Modern Family, didn't think it was something I'd enjoy but have been pleasantly surprised!

Same here, have downloaded 4 & 5 to watch on holidays.
