TV Series

Enjoying the last kingdom. Love me some Bernard Cornwell. Hopefully they televise some of his other series after this. The King Arthur one was cracking and would make a great series IMO.

ta mate, but not into kitsch, i like serious sci-fi...i did a bit of imdb-sleuthing and found some potential candidates:

also @Jags..class


Person of Interest
Orphan Black
Dark Matter
Ascension


any opinions on if these are decent?

Seen Person of matter, not bad only seen the first 5 shows
Heard orphan black is good and I'm going to try Dark matter next. Not heard of Ascension, is that the hally Barry one and now been cancelled

nah, i looked at the ratings for the Halle Berry one, sounded well boring. Ascension has the fit tall Cylon from BSG in it.

Just started watching sons of anarchy. Enjoying it so far 5 episodes in. Anybody else watched it

Loved it. Really good seven seasons. Defo in my top five TV series of all time

The strain has been enjoyable and this after hours has some good tunes in it

Enjoying it very much its very good one point though that actor out of Bread , and Goodnight Sweetheart spoilt it a bit with hiding his scouse accent not hid that well -I know we get everywhere , but Liverpool did not exist in that era!lol

I'm into S2 now and it's getting even better

Cheers, that's the next couple of days viewing sorted so.

any decent sci-fi recommendations? There's a lot of faff out there, tried Helix and The Event but got bored. Love BSG, X-Files and the older Star Treks.

You should try Battlestar Galactica if you haven't already seen it. I thought I'd hate it, but found myself really absorbed.

that's what I meant with "love BSG" in that post you quoted

the only 10/10 tv series i've ever watched...as close to perfect as can be reasonably expected.

Sorry, mate. Didn't twig the BSG bit of your post. Think you'll find it difficult to find anything of the same quality in tv sci fi. If you do, let me know.

Going back to Underbelly & Fat Tony the actress who played Danielle Mcguire... Madeleine West has had 6 kids, it aint taken its toll on her body !!! she was rampant throughout as well

Started that Mr Robot on Amazon prime. Got Netflix too so looking at Narcos, The Bridge and Sense 8 too.

First 3 series of American horror story done, started the fourth but the premise doesn't interest me at all so I'm going to swerve it.

 

[marnie]

Just about to watch ..The Last Panthers............... gangsters and a diamond heist in Europe.Anyone seen this ?

 

[coollino]

London Spy, BBC2, has been brilliant so far.
