    Anyone seen 'Person of Interest' - seems like a good American TV series to binge on.

    Has great reviews. I'm on episode 3, so far so good <ok>

    Netflix.

    Keep me up to date on this one, it looks ok but wasn't sure on the format. I watched 2 and I don't like this new story each week stuff.

    WIKI: Person of Interest is an American science fiction crime drama television series created by Jonathan Nolanthat premiered on September 22, 2011, on CBS.[2] It is produced by Nolan, alongside J.J. Abrams, Bryan Burk, and Greg Plageman. It stars Jim Caviezel as John Reese, a former CIA agent who is presumed dead. He is approached by a mysterious billionaire named Harold Finch (Michael Emerson) who is trying to prevent violent crimes before they happen by using an advanced surveillance system dubbed "The Machine", which turns out to have evolved into a sentient AI. Their unique brand of vigilante justice attracts the attention of two NYPD officers, Jocelyn "Joss" Carter (Taraji P. Henson) and Lionel Fusco (Kevin Chapman), whom Reese uses to his advantage as he investigates persons of interest. Reese and Finch are later aided by Samantha "Root" Groves (Amy Acker), a highly intelligent computer hacker and contract killer whom the Machine later identifies as its "analog interface", and Sameen Shaw (Sarah Shahi), a formerISA assassin who unknowingly dealt with the "relevant" numbers found by the Machine. From season 3, the series sees the advent of a new rival AI called "Samaritan", which is brought into existence by Decima Technologies. Much of season 4 is centered on the struggle between the two competing AIs and their human agents.

    The series was renewed for a fifth season to debut mid-season during the 2015–16 television season.[3][4]The fifth season, which consists of 13 episodes, is expected to premiere in spring 2016. CBS has yet to announce whether it is the final season or not, although the writers have written it as a final season.[5]

    The series has received generally positive reception from critics, including an increase in acclaim when the series introduced more serialized storylines and its exploration of artificial intelligence.

    Zaxby's has better chicken. Chik-fil-a has much better chicken. Popeyes has better chicken. Hardees has better chicken. Bojangles has better chicken. Even Church's which itself is pretty bad has better chicken.

    Heck even our local grocery store sells better fried chicken.

    So many large fried chicken chains and they're all way better than KFC.

    You may or may not have all those chains in UK yet but I know you have others and I find it difficult to believe they'd be worse than KFC.

    Always tough and overcooked and always way too salty. (unless they use a different recipe in UK which I suppose is possible).

    We have none of those franchises in the UK as far as I am aware.
    Only one I have heard of is Popeyes chicken and thats only because I am sure it has been mentioned in movies.
    Here we have Nandos <laugh>
    Which, to be fair, is pretty damned good.
    Also bear in mind that chicken in the UK is far better than US chicken. I believe we have much more stringent rules on Poultry rearing in the UK than in the US. And all of KFC UK's chicken is locally sourced.
