Yeah have seen a few series of it and by god it is serious tough going.

But the captains can earn serious coin for it if they do well.

Excellent show but perhaps dragging a tad and too many new characters if you want to get really picky.

I reckon they could make 7-8 seasons at least, if not 10!!

It's based on books. Each book is a season, apart from the last two which are halves of book three. The books are still being written.

Not quite true. Current season has had plenty of elements of A Dance with Dragons, the fifth book in it. When writing the books, Martin split it based on geography of the characters, so some of them went AWOL for perhaps a book and a half. I imagine the producers of the show wouldn't have been happy with that so have started blending the narrative.

Unbelievable.  Not sure if you would make much headway through the seasons though, the old pause and rewind buttons on your Sky Remote would near be worn away.

It's very good but starting to get slightly annoying with at least 10 different plotlines going on at the same time. I'm hoping this is going to reach some kind of finish rather than the way Lost went which just seemed to get even more confusing and then just stopped.

The first few series are fantastic and there is enough blood and enough sets of jebs to keep you more than interested!

Person Of Interest is my favourite at the minute along with GOT, the Blacklist is brilliant too.  I see Revolution has got the chop, been really boring lately so no surprise.  Ray Donovan is bound to be back soon though, looking forward to that.  Have watched a few Intelligence and Believe as well, ok so far but nothing special.  Falling Skies is another that has sort of fallen flat, hopefully this new season will be better.  Hannibal should be interesting too.

Anyone watching 24 hours to go broke on Dave at the minute? David Haye and Seann Walsh have to spend €10,000 in Cork in 24 hours. After the break the are doing a bit of hurling and road bowls.
That was never a square ball!!

Honestly glad in a way that Revolution, Believe and Intelligence got the chop as it was becoming too much.  On top of these I watch The Walking Dead, The Following, Under the Dome and Boardwalk Empire.  Fortunately, they are not all on at the same time of the year.

Anyone watch The Supervet  on C4 last night?  Heart warming but the amount people spend on their pets is amazing.  Is it because there is pet insurance now that costs are so high?
