TV Series

I used to enjoy poor quality swedish films in my youth. The soundtracks were terrible as was the acting. But still extremely watchable.

The story lines were limited, broken washing machine, leaking tap and guy come to collect the rent. All very deep and moving story lines.

I'm a huge breaking bad fan however admittedly a lot of episodes are very slow and boring, his wife is also the most irratating character I've seen on television...

I think she was also pain, however Walters character would have not been as mental as it was if it was not for someone like her.

Breaking Bad is a work of art, and has the darkest deaths of a baddie ever... with Gus.

I loved Breaking Bad because I loved it.
From the acid in the bath scene and the bike lock scene, I was hooked.

The acid bath scene nearly put me off. I started to watch only last year after it did so well in the TV shows poll, and after the first couple of episodes I thought the makers were going for obvious shock/horror/loud-mouth character cliche. However, it settled down after this and I now rate BB and BCS as two of the finest TV shows I've ever seen.

Did you enjoy BCS? I've only just completed it, the cartel parts were great along with nacho and lalos storyline however I found the majority of the series was boring courtroom nonsense and don't get me started on chuck

I enjoyed the slower pace and the relationship between Jimmy and Chuck.

Lalo was a great introduction - one of those characters where you never knew what was going to happen next.

Just watching the golden egg cups one and it’s brilliant stuff. Proper laughing at Barbara thinking Terry Waite wanted to be alone and Trevor McDonald starred in Shawshank along side Tim robbins.
 
Mammals fucking awful though it kept the interest, wish it hadn't....

Shantaram brilliant, don't get the negative reviews

The wire was brilliant for 3 season Sopranos I tried three times to get into it and I couldn’t son of anarchy not for me spooks very good! For me though the perfect series from episode 1 to the 75th episode it was The Americans absolute masterpiece of acting and writing not one episode out the 75 episodes was a dud!

Although I enjoyed the Americans, it falls way short of the two you mentioned; the wire is a masterpiece of reporting the social ills that exist (even to this day) and the sopranos is a melting pot of dark humour, coupled with supreme portrayals of sociopaths; each to their own though pal!

I think tv series is a personal thing, like music.
I didn't like The Wire at all. I didn't like Gommorah, or The Sopranos.

I did like The Shield, Mad Men, Ozark, Breaking Bad & Saul.

I havent seen The Americans.
 
Well this fannying about with Henry Carvill and the DCU and the knock on afferct to recasting the Witcher part seems stupid now.

he was annoyed with the writers but expect he would have stayed on if he had known DC were gonna drop him afterall

Mark Rylance is brilliant as Cromwell.

Mark Rylance is brilliant at playing Mark Rylance, if you know what I mean.

The star of Wolf Hall was Claire Foy and her mesmeric portrayal of Anne Boleyn.

"Cremuell!"
