TV Series

Love watching Banshee and Ray Donavon and certainly best thing on telly at the moment.
For anyone who has not seen it sons of anarchy is top draw and my favourite series for a long long time.
What are peoples views on Hannibal, tried to watch the third series but the slowness and use of music finally drove me to give up on it.

Ray Donovan is the best out of banshee and SOA but all 3 are class . Still all a fair way behind the sopranos and the wire. If you like banshee you will like braquo, a Paris based police/ gangster show made by the same people as banshee. It's on Netflix now.

The Wire is amazing but loses several points for that substandard final series. BB maintained the highest quality right to the very end.

Tbh I thought the Wire's last season was still pretty great. It did get a little bit far fetched at times but for me the series as a whole was really enjoyable. The acting was flawless as per and the last 3 episodes in particular had some fantastic moments. I loved the finale too.

These come to mind [spoilers below]







I would rate The Wire a 10 and BB like a 9.9 lol

It certainly has very little sublty

In the first episode they showed a fit bird looking at another one and I thought "Ah, a lesbian tease. Let's see how that plays out"

They were doing it 5 minutes later

And there seems to be swearing in it almost for the sake of it

Still, I'll watch another one and give it a chance

I watched one episode you do realise it's a young Long John Silver it's kids stuff dressed for adults ! - if you can get TURN on Amazon prime or elsewhere - it's based on a true story two series so brilliant!
 
Watched the first series of breaking bad ages ago and bored the heck out of me to be honest....think it was just the first series where he shaves his head and goes into the mexican drug dealers place with the homemade bomb after his kid partner got beaten.

Then later he watched the mexican beat someone half to death.

Just all seemed utterly bizarre and the guys homelife was boring as anything.

Is it considered a "cool" show as it involves drugs?
 
We've had The 100 starting over here, which is a bit Hunger Games meets Lord of the Flies with a dash of Dawson's Creek. Kind of good-looking teen sci-fi drama but apparently gets darker as it goes on.

The Strain is starting tonight which looks interesting. Guillermo del Toro developed it:
A plane lands at John F. Kennedy International Airport with the lights off and the doors sealed. CDC epidemiologist Dr. Ephraim Goodweather, Dr. Nora Martinez, and their team are sent to investigate. On board they find 206 corpses and four survivors. The situation deteriorates when all the bodies disappear from the morgue.
