    Still Watching Bloodline about half way through more. Well worth watching.

    Going to finish Fortitude and then try Fargo.

    I'm currently watching Bloodline too, great stuff.



    On another note - anyone know when they plan to air season 3 of Peaky Blinders?

    I think Peaky Blinders is in the Autumn. How you getting on with House of Cards?

    Yeah good. I'm half way through season 2, and for some reason have come across a stumbling block. It's still a very good show, but for some reason I haven't watched an episode for about a week. Previously I was watching 2 a day!!

    I'm going to get back into it tonight I think - but I must admit I do kind of get what MITO was saying, for me season 1 was amazing, season 2 takes a slight dip. But I will see it through.

    Saying that one of the main reasons I haven't watched it is due to watching both series of Peaky Blinders last week, ****ing quality show. Probably the best British TV I've ever seen.

    Nah This is England easy but it's certainly No. 2

    House of Cards Season 2 starts quick (train shock) but then the story is slow but pay attention because as it's revealed you see just how clever, driven and evil he is.

    I just love This is England it'll be right up there for me with the US shows.

    I might do an updated list of ongoing shows later.

    I like This is England, but it is thoroughly depressing, and the rape scene in season 1 made me want to vomit it was far too graphic.

    Going for a Top 10 this includes my opinion so far on ongoing shows and completed shows. Ongoing shows may drop depending on future series.

    1. True Detective (Season 1) Stands alone as any further seasons are not linked.
    2. The Wire
    3. Game of Thrones
    4. This is England
    5. The Sopranos
    6. The Walking Dead
    7. Peaky Blinders
    8. House of Cards
    9. Heroes (Season 1) cheating a bit as it went on and got crap but watch season 1 as a one off and enjoy.
    10. Breaking Bad

  14. Without question, Breaking Bad is number one for me. First is first, second is no where so who gives a **** about the rest :)

    I liked Breaking Bad.
    Shockingly overrated though.
    Was great for a cable show.
    But nowhere near HBO's stuff.

    My top 5:

    1) The Wire
    2) The Sopranos
    3) Game of Thrones (Still running so subject to change)
    4) Shameless (US) (Still running so subject to change)
    5) Breaking Bad

    I agree.

    No True Detective?

    It's as good as TV gets imo.

    I'm going to try the new series of True Detective but imo it's just going to fail in comparison to the first, Mathew M was at the hight of his powers at that point they got really lucky getting him to do that role.

    Yeah thats my worry too.
    Matt M has big shoes to fill. Gotta wonder whether the replacement guy is gonna have the minerals!
    Still, am prepared to give it the benefit of the doubt.

    I also agree that Season 1 of Heroes was excellent (just a shame they didnt end it there :()
