Is Justified not on TG4 foe the last 2/3 years?

No idea. I never used to watch a lot of series. I didn't have the patience to wait until next week, so the boxsets on Netflix or Sky are a godsend to me. Anyway, I'm just into season 2 of it, and it's a great watch. I love the accent down around there as well.

I am finishing up series 1!

Downloaded Italian Mafioso drama Gomorrah & watched 12 episodes over 2/3 days. Superb stuff, withdrawal symptoms already. Hankering for Series 2.

Yes, this is absolutely excellent, agreed! I wonder will they repeat series 1 before they show 2. I would watch it again!

The Peep Show episode on Wed nite was comic genius at it's arse clenching best.

Im up to episode 4 of Mr Robot. Still undecided as to whether I like it or not. A bit strange at times but I want to watch on to see what happens.

It's fantastic. Best show of the year by some distance. The first tv show or film to actually deal with the real intracties of software programming, not bullshît mumbo-jumbo.

I get a kick out of that because I do it for a living but as a show and as a character piece it is fantastic outside its success in being both authentic and engaging in dealing with computing. It's shot beautifully too and the score is excellent.

Nah, it's not. It's Fight Club with a bit of tech. Interesting enough but the plot is all over the place.

Far from it. Particularly given how the season ended.

Plot was incredibly consistent too. Reviews have been through the roof so you're the outlier.

Well, in that case, isn't it wonderful that these things are a matter of taste and opinion?

The new series has been as good as ever

 Fargo S2  just gets better and better.
Episode 8 brings it all up to speed.
Amongst a hundred other things in this episode, the Gerhard's Indian, Hanzee, offers a different slant to "Wounded Knee".

Yup, the last two or three haven't been great but it looks like they're going out on a high (or crumbling low as it happens). I find myself genuinely cringing and turning away from some of the things happening, they're that awkward!

Anyone watched The Tunnel? Think it was on sky atlantic initially but i just watched it on demand on sky. Brilliant series.

Heres the thing though i wanna find someone who has watched it. I finished the ten episodes and went on to google to see if there is another series and came across this forum chatting about it. I was reading through this and they are all on about what happened in the finale and what they are on about i never watched. The last episode for me ended on something different but there was 10 episodes for them and for me. Anyone who watched it wanna help me out?

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's a significantly inferior remake of a Swedish programme called Brön (The Bridge) that is on BBC 3 or 4. Highly recommended.

I watched The Bridge and it's excellent. Started watching "The Tunnel" on Sky Atlantic last year and got through a couple of episodes.
The story was exactly the same as the original from what I remember so gave up on it.
I'm watching The Bridge Series 3 on BBC4 now and it's as good as ever. Best show on TV IMO.

[tyrone girl]

Yes its apparently a remake of The Bridge. I didnt watch it though i have been reading that they were very similar.
I cannot figure out wtf people are on about in the finale episode though. Its pissing me off cos i obviously wanna watch it to its conclusion.

[gallsman]

It has been re-made several times, including in the US, although I can't remember if that was a bridge or a tunnel. The forum definitely about the same one?

[tyrone girl]

Yes definitely, without wanting to give away spoilers if anyone hasnt watched it they are talking about the same characters and about one being blown up and a stand off etc and ***** being dead at the end.
The way mine ended was the young lad typing on the computer and i was thinking ah its a cliffhanger to the next series so of course i go reading up as to when it starts then i find all this.

[gallsman]

A different season of the show, perhaps?
