Anyone seen The killing the American version of the Danish television series Forbrydelsen ? - can’t get the subbies up on mine to watch the original version and am a bit skeptical of American rehashes but the original seems well liked.

Danish version probably just edges it, but the American version was still very good. Joel Kinneman and Mereille Enos. Enjoyed it a lot
 
I’m getting to the end of Succession, series 2. I’m still not sure if I actually like it or not. My wife is sticking with it but the ‘humour’ continues to annoy me, although there have been a couple of funny laughs, to be fair.

All the characters are still horrible humans, and what the hell is Holly Hunter’s voice all about? As for Roman, if I knew him in real life he would get punched on a regular basis.

I like Greg even though he’s a pit of a pain and I love the music, the theme and the incidental bits throughout the programme.

By the time the third series comes on I’ll probably want to watch it!

Sounds like she's sucking a mint imperial all the time.

Great show though. Gotta love Shiv.

The Killing was only the 2nd of these multi season offerings I watched, Boardwalk Empire being the first. I really enjoyed them both but The Killing was more my type of drama, plenty of twists, bought into the main characters with ease, thought the actor who played Rosie's father was brilliant.
If I had one gripe about The Killing it's that it has ensured I never want to visit Seattle, it never stops fucking raining.

Whilst obviously the lead detectives were brilliant, I totally agree, the Father (and the Mother actually) I thought were superb.
 
Just started "Condor" and very good.
Not sure if it has been said before, but "Comrade Detective" is excellent as was "Hidden" which I found on iPlayer , even if alot of it was in welsh with subtitles

Filmed in Vancouver mate.
 
Finished “white lines” on Netflix , only one season, episodes 1-3 were excellent then 4-10 was awful. Round about episode 7 I was for giving up on it but thought I got this far , I may as well see it through.
Not recommended from me
 
Started watching one called The Fall. Nearly finished the 1st season, very good so far.

The lead guy in it was without doubt one of the worst actors I’ve ever seen. I only watched it as it was in Ibiza and then turns out the whole thing was filmed in Majorca. Utter shite.
 
Not a new series but I really enjoyed Black Sails. Very underwatched show.
