Finished season 2 of Bosch. Quite a good show to be fair.
Any other good cop shows worth trying? The Shield and the Wire will be hard to beat!

Try 'Braquo' on Netflix - mad cop stuff in Paris.

Might give this a go as the books are great. I've been putting it off as generally tv adaptations are dung but I believe Michael Connelly is involved.

What shows are decent on amazon prime and netflixs. I think I have watched all the good ones apart from Braquo. Is Vikings any good? I see one called 'Start up' that I might try as well.

First episode of Taboo on BBC1 last night was class. Tom Hardy at his menacing best.

The bridge is superb if you don't mind watching in subtitles. Swedish/Danish show. First 2 series on netflix. I've also got the 3rd series on dvd.

You should try Justified set in Harlan Kentucky.  Stars Timothy Olyphant and you will recognise Walton Goggins from the Shield.

6 series and 78 episode were shown on Fox.

Not in same league as The Wire or The Shield but very enjoyable with a range of great characters who run across the series. High body count.

Pleasantly surprised by Tommy Tiernan's new show last night. Good interview with Christy Dignam and this wasnt hard to look at either... :D


Triplet model sisters on it tonight.....
