You not think its light?

To be fair funny and which the fairer sex should enjoy - it definitely ticks the boxes.

Just watched "Good Job: Stories of the FDNY" Steve Buscemi was interviewing some of his old mates as he used to be a fireman in NYC. Fascinating esp. the 911 stuff. Brave men and a lot of 2nd and 3rd generation Irish.

I started watching Marco Polo....got bored by it and gave up. Not as good as it could have been I think.

True Detective 2 consigned to history, thank God. Such a letdown after the first season.

Good, and funny, summary of plot up until start of Ep 8 here:

It loved itself a bit much and the plot was nearly too complicated but there was something I liked about it. Vaughan and McAdams switching things up was refreshing and they're great actors, some of the scenes were epic as well. Id give it a 6.5/10... Lots of room for improvement but watchable.

Slightly disappointed with the last episode but overall I loved series 2, thought it much superior to the 1st.

I think a lot of people have been unduly hard on it. I preferred the first but I think the second was a good un too. I would like to see Farrell and Vaughn making some decent films now.

Seen trailer for season 5 of Homeland... Looks great, coming out in the Autumn I think

I thought it was absolutely shite. The writing was all over the place, what "plot" existed was ridiculously over convoluted and the characters themselves were boring as hell.

It has to be one of the bleakest endings to a TV series I've ever seen. That ending highlights to me just how much you want a conventional ending where the 'good' guys win or there's some sense of enlightenment. It was a very brave way to end a story in fairness.

Just finished watching "The Wire" really enjoyed it although the dialect was hard to follow at times.

I normally am very detached when watching shows like this were you know it's rarely gonna end well for the main protagonists, but I so wanted V.V to make it and the only main character who made it was the one who annoyed the shite out of me.

Off work this week & have the first 2 series of Banshee downloaded, i dunno what to make of it tbh. It's a bit rednecky for my taste i think, some A team traits and ridiculous fight scences - the one i watched last nite was like Peter & the Rooster outa family guy. Lots of random riding too.

you say this like its a bad thing 

I too thought True Detective 2 wasn't a patch on the first series. Hard to make them out at times, v hard to follow.  Wifey was askin me questions throughout last episode as she gave up on it, my response every fcukin time was "dunno"
