Ive been banging on about Treme earlier in the tread. Just started watching the second series and it's very good. Really would recommend it.

What's it about

New Orleans after hurricane Katrina. It's based around the real area of Treme in the city, the oldest black community in the U.S. and as it got hit badly by the storm it ended up the City Officials didnt/havent re-built the 'Projects' - housing estates.

The first series started off a few months after when some people tried to move back in. The second series is a around a year after and it seems to have got a lot darker in mood.

Oh and there is great music through the programmes.

Cheers.. Is it one of those shows you need to watch 4 or 5 episodes before you get into it or are you right into it?

I've got it ready to go, right after Banshee and Deadwood.
Anybody watch the Killing? Canadian version of a swedish jobby.


Yeah watch the killing the English speaking one its pretty good but be warned the pace is a lot slower than the Swedish one

I do watch it mate and I agree, it's slow as fuck. It's a good story line but I can't stand either one of the two main actors. If the wife didn't watch it I wprobably would have given up a while back. Same goes for the River.

Is the River that bizarre show about a guy who goes missing in the amazon and they try to track him down, a bit sci-fi ish?

You do need to give it a few programmes. I nearly gave up after the second programme but by the third one I was hooked.

Didn't think it was cancelled. Oh well, it didn't get the old lady horny like Banshee does.
 
Got through the first 2 series of Breaking Bad, absolutely brilliant watch, definitely recommend it.

I might give it a watch but story wise down the line I like it to be a alien experiment ;)

Aye maybe, the special effects are good so might have cost a few quid to make.

Usually American pilot shows they spend over a millions pound for it after that budget is a lot lower then last couple of episodes up it to a million again especially for sci-fi shows

The pilot episode was good, its based on a Stephen King book.
