Its all about the walking dead. I have a netflix subscription and I saw this on their list. I wasnt going to even bother with it but for whatever reason I did. Boy am I ever glad I took the chance, its super great.

If anyone has the chance to get sons of anarchy I highly reccommend it. Its one of the best series I have ever watched

Seen:

Dexter
The Shield
The Wire
Entourage
Breaking Bad
Boardwalk Boulevard
Mad Men (didn;t like)
The Sopranos
Sons Of Anarchy
Deadwood

Suggestions please!

Californication is amazing!!

The Waking Dead, not seen, but heard it's very good.

Just ordered North and South off Amazon, as loved it as a kid, hope it doesn't tarnish my memories! :thumbup:

For Comedy, How I met your Mothers, funny once you get into it.

Jersey Shore (Reality show based in Jersey funnily enough) for the simply lol knobs on it!! Makes it so addictive. Haven't seen season two yet. [censored] up ugly Guidettes FTE

are you telling me you havent watched prison break? Dude if you havent you best get on that

Dream of Vegas · **Posted:** Wed May 02, 2012 7:39 pm

Yeah Walking Deads redic good, some of the best acting I've seen, gutted my fave characters dead sigh!! . . . Although the hottest girl from Supernatural playing Maggie is a huge bonus!! Still got Ep 13 of season 3 to go saving it like the last, best bit of a meal. lol

Sons of Anarchy is class, although the characters are a little inconsistent at times, the continuity because of this falters a bit. Another issue for me is some of the conclusions to certain threads in various story arcs are tenuous to say the least, still a cracking show and some truly wow moments you don't see in many shows, brutal isn't the word.

Prison Break . . . hmmm I rem when this first came out watched it for a few weeks and like Lost, missing a few eps completely confused me. I thought of getting back into it but heard after season 2 (1+2 meant to be awesome) it turns really, really baaaaaad!!? that put me off up to now.

No Ordinary Family: Is good but doean't know if it's a dark drama or light hearted family show, plus Michael Chiklis (Mac from the Shield/The Thing Fantastic 4) and Julie Benz (Darla in Buffy/Angel, Dexters missus) don't suit as married couple with 2 kids . . . for Julie Benz alone it's a good light-hearted watch!! (Cancelled after season 1, due to the studio increasing Fringes budget apparently)

Dont watch many of these things but loved Prison Break DoV. Yes, later series not as good but the characters so good it made it ok for me.

Silly thing for me was, watched 2,3,4 on boxset and not sure which one, but either 3 or 4 the pics on the box gave 1 bit of storyline away...schoolboy error imo !!

Loving Touch atm, probs 2 not so good episodes so far inc this weeks, but like it a lot....always enjoyed numbers based stuff

Yeah Prison Break was probably my all time favorite. Extremely explosive and the characters were amazing. I wont give it away obviously but the finale was pure wtf. I think they made a mistake there.

Dreams of Vegas:

Im actually watching lost with my fiance right now. The first season was awesome but as we get more into it starts to get to be a little "much". Kind of like a sci fi I guess. I think they could have done so much better with it instead of making it so weird. I still like it though

Sons of Anarchy is another one of my favs because it has great action.

Sopranos was a good one too although I think they could have left out some of the boring moments especially some of the psyciatric stuff

Dream of Vegas · **Posted:** Wed May 02, 2012 10:36 pm

Soprano's is in my all time top 6 Drama's:

Dexter
Breaking Bad
The Wire
Soprano's
Battlestar Gallactica
Mad Men

I'll make a start on Prison Break then with all the love it seems to be getting.

When I had all seasons free on B.T. Vision, watched Lost from season 1 right through to season 4. Totally lost interest in season 5. Just bonkers.

@ Cogs: Missus wants to get into Touch, she loves 24 n Keifer. (as do I, few weak seasons but overall, set a good template for US drama's IMO)

For all the sex and violence you could ever want, watch Spartacus: Blood and Sand / Gods of the Arena / Vengeance

First 5 eps of the first series are awful, but stick with it and it becomes awsome.

Agreed although it's a touch gay:

at times. Cracking shows, such a shame the lead died after first season although the prequel series is equally good. The violence is awesome in it's brutality and the bird from The Hustle gets her fanjita out :thumbup:

Watching The Bridge on BBC4 atm. Great Swedish / Danish detective drama. Main character is awesome and also bangable.

4 episodes into A Game of Thrones. Its decent i guess but hardly on the same level as Spartacus and a bunch of other sick tv like Breaking Bad etc. Does it get better? Heard first few eps are kinda slow?

yes loads better, its all about the backtabbing and political intrigue. its pretty complicated with like 5 storylines running in the same program

i like never watch tv shows, or series but i am hooked on this one

Latest ones I've been watching are:

Person of Interest, CIA spook goes into hiding but Computer geek finds him and enlists his help in looking after the little guy. Pretty good and all first season is now complete.

Episodes, British writing couple head to LA to oversee a few tinkerings on their award winning script. Joey from Friends ends up as their new star. Quite funny.

The Bridge, Awesome Danish/Swedish production. Serial killer goes on the rampage and two mismatched cops get thrown together because of the location of the first body.

The River, Shit happens when you find yourself lost in the Amazon. Couple of scary moments and a couple of stunners as well.

Alcatraz, decent idea but the second series has been scrapped so don't get to involved in it.

The Finder, Decent enough. From the team that brought us "Bones" so it's quite slick.

Alactraz was a bit poo imo.
