I have given up round the start of season 3. Its ok but nothing to write home about in my opinion.
I think my expectations were too high with everyone telling me it was best show ever on tv.

Give me wentworth any day.

Also watching that one of James Nesbitts at the minute on BBC1 The Missing. Great show imo.

Agree about the missing. Fantastic show so far. Really looking forward to tonight's show. i was about to give up on breaking bad after season 2 also but have persevered and have just finished season 3 which I enjoyed. Having said that I don't think it's the great show everyone makes it out to be. Not a patch on The Wire which is the benchmark for me.

Nah it keeps improving year on year with seasons 5 & 6 probably the finest seasons of TV ever made. I watched the first 2 seasons and left it as I thought it wasn't anything special. I'm glad I went back to it though as it ended up being superb.

Seems to be the general consensus from most but the mayor seems abit obvious and the show 'seems' slightly cleverer than that. A second series has been commissioned although the director has said he thinks the series has a proper ending and not a cliffhanger !?

Anybody watch Luther? Idris Elba is good in it and Ruth Wilson plays a very good physco.
Private Cowboy: Don't shit me, man!
Private Joker: I wouldn't shit you. You're my favorite turd!

His brother the hotel owner is dodgy I think! Dying to see how it pans out.

It seems too obvious to be the hotel owners hubby, I said from last week that theres just something not right with your man Flemyng's character.

I did think there was something not quite right about Mark though he slightly redeemed himself last night.

What about Sylvie? Thats the sobriety coin and it wasnt Alain who kept them it was her!

Good point - never thought of it like that.  Just think it is too straight forward for it to be one of them.  There has to be linkage with some other party.  Or could Nesbitt be aware of someone else who would have a coin i.e. is sober that hasn't been explicitly mentioned.

Has anyone watched Braquo?
http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2012/jun/14/your-next-box-set-braquo

Yep, I've watched Braquo, very good......
I watched ep1 last night and it was very good. It's hard not to compare the storyline/genre to Vic and the The Shield.
But on first impression, the Paris wild bunch tick all the boxes.
Following on with Braquo, it loses its way with me after episode 6  S1.
Season 2 doesn't pick up at all. just gets progressively overdosed with typecast baddies and the anti-hero goodies.
The Shield is not seriously threatened by this drama at all.

In fairness to The Fall, that was a very good episode tonight. He's a creepy flecker! Not much dialogue again!
Who's a bit of a moaning Michael tonight!

Aye was alright but I've never seen a black police officer before in Belfast nor do Belfast people speak so slow!!!!!!
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Actors required for TV show The Fall, no experience required so there isn't! Why's May McFetriidge not in it?
