Ray Donovan is nearing the end of season 1, very good show so far.
Thankfully left it on series link and have been watching it steadily over the past week or so. Have to say I really like it, no fireworks but good characters. Is there a second series coming?

Think there is a second season coming. Been a slow enough season with no major fireworks and a lot of character building which would lend it to progressing to more major story lines in future seasons. Boardwalk Empire was pretty similar in season 1, it was all about establishing the characters and their relationships.

As for the Irish show on Channel 4, what is unrealistic about Irish women swearing a lot and being slags? You must live in a different Ireland than me.

Jim - you mustn't have watched 24 before, still numero uno.

Didn't like it Rico, stopped after 2 seasons. Just couldn't get into and that clock noise that comes on was doing my head in.

Just finished.

Brilliant!

That is all for now.

Bloody aliens.

Hardy · September 30, 2013, 08:19:04 PM

Brilliant is right.

Minor question - not a spoiler, I think - why leave the watch at the filling station?

Didn't catch that. Still seems a bit of a strange thing to do.

Glad it ended that way

Can't believe Walt junior died

ONeill · September 30, 2013, 09:47:23 PM

I didn't think it was a brilliant ending - a tying up of narratives I suppose. The best episode was the third last. It sorta freewheeled from there as that's all they had to do.

JimStynes · September 30, 2013, 09:51:27 PM

Not the best finish ever but still a great show overall. When the hype dies down I still think Sopranos and the Wire were better although the wire's final season let it down a bit.
