TV Series

Watched the last Wolf Hall last night. Long wait for the second series but I’m glad they finished it. Shame Hilary Mantel didn’t survive to see it.

Just finished Man on the Inside, with Ted Danson. Nothing too heavy, a gentle half hour comedy drama. If you like Only Murders In the Building, this is fairly reminiscent of it, tackling the issues of getting older, loneliness and a mystery to be solved.

Just started watching this, along with "Evil". So far, so good.

Yes Oz, 97-03. 6 seasons.

Its a prison show, Oz is, Oswald State Correctional Facility. The series looks at Prison life in The US, through an array of lenses of different gangs/individuals etc, Mafia, Gang bangers, Latino, Nazi's, Bikers. Muslims and how they all exist together etc in the prison or not. It can be harrowing but its quality TV so far. Don't know how ive missed it up until now.

Oz was the forerunner for the Sopranos and the Wire and many say put HBO on the map and broke new ground in TV production.

Cheers i'll add it to the list

True Detective was the best single season of TV I have seen but The Wire definitely the best multi season of TV I’ve seen.

Have you seen Gomorrah?

Started watching Mr McMahon yesterday on Netflix, 3 left to watch.

Didn’t know about a lot of the stuff that went on, especially the stuff with Brett Hart.

Really enjoying it.

Yes

Only good thing I’ve seen Idris Elba in. And he is outstanding.

Luther?

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Luther?

I can never get fully into shows like that. Trying to be real and gritty but are too far removed from any reality.

You know you’ve finished a good show when you can’t watch anything after it

Given a few things a whirl since i finished TD season 1 and all just seem crap.

Wish I had one of them pens off Men In Black

Same could be said for something awful.

Watched 2 eps so far, it's pretty good, think I'll have to brute force it a little. Probs need subtitles as well since the Baltimore accent is rough.
