About 3 episodes into Series 3 of House of Cards. Lacking a bit of a kick at the moment. Will it improve? Getting tired of it at the moment. No Spoilers.

I loved the first two series but have attempted to watch series 3 a couple of times and not got past the 3rd episode yet...

Yeah, 3rd season of HoC took a massive dive.

Mr. Robot is absolutely excellent.

Latest episode of The Walking Dead is a bit WTF!!!
Wasn't expecting that,but I feel there will be a twist to that scene yet.

Downloaded the Boxset of 1992 from Sky Arts, an Italian Political Corruption drama, 3 (from 10) Episodes in and it's a very good show so far with plenty of potential.

Yep, good show - very cynical, quite sad.

Season 3 of the Blacklist starts tonight for those that are interested. Great show.

Season 2 ep 3 of Fargo and it's just superb, re script, story, plot, characters, acting, direction and cinematography and anything else that matters. TV drama of the year by a North Dakota mile.

Quirky by numbers IMO.

3 episodes into season 1 of Friday Night Lights. Have been meaning to watch it for a while. Superb TV

Always been meaning to try Friday Night Lights and never got round to it. Good show then?

Started homeland again and it is class! Went through a bit of a shit spell around the start of season 3 and I stopped watching it. Started up again and it got better and better. Saying that season 5 has started a bit slow but only 2 episodes in.

It's an excellent tv drama. Once you start watching it you will quickly find out if you like it or not.
And if you like it, you will watch it right through all the seasons.
if you don't like it, you won't bother.
There is no duplicity.

Formulaic

.
It's a north dakota noir, black humour genre, the plots are complicated and it's out of the box inventive with script, characters, editing.
Fargo will not be to everybody's taste but formulaic it ain't.
And also coming after the season one, this second season is an unformulaic as you can get, it's a new departure.
