Yep, I've watched most of the cool shows, but rewatching The Wire, especially that final season and ending, means I still put it as my favourite. And I'm not usually someone who lists in order of preference stuff they like!

Multi watching different shows at the moment.

Spartacus and Orange is the New Black on Netflix and Nurse Jackie from my external harddrive on my PS3.

Big fan of the Scream franchise, so I just started watching Scream the TV show. Not sure what to think of it just yet.

I can also recommend Burn Notice as a thoroughly decent show. Not mould breaking, but a thoroughly fun romp with some decent story. Loads of the usual faces show up, but I especially like how it makes proper use of the mighty Bruce Campbell as one of the main characters. :D


Also just watched GoT but there's a whole other topic for that. I kinda see which direction OL come from though. Whilst I did enjoy GoT and will continue to watch it, and Walking Dead, they are more sorta shows I'd class as a step below the truly great shows like Breaking Bad, Prison Break, The Wire, The Sopranos, etc.

Just couldn't take to it, and I did try.

Same with Sons of Anarchy, I even tried to push on 'cos it has Walton Goggins in it and there's just something I like about the way he plays his characters, but nope, I thought most of them were arseholes, and liking a few of the main characters is something I gotta be able to do with a show!

I know what you mean about SoA, it's ok but I don't rate it the way a lot of people do. I would say give the second series of True Detective a shot, it's not related to the first season and it's different in feel, if nothing else it's interesting to see Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn turning in a decent performance.

At the moment I'm watching Jordskott, it's a Swedish mystery being shown on ITV here, I'm gonna reserve judgement until I finish it but it's holding my attention. Speaking of which I'm hoping they renew Wayward Pines for a second season. :mad:

Just finished The Wire for the second time, great series. Currently watching the second season of True Detective and am planning on starting Boardwalk Empire with the fiance shortly. I've already seen it, she hasn't but has been bugging me to watch it.

Hannibal, still can't make my mind up on it...oddly captivating though.

Must be the reason why they've pulled plug.

Shame.

Hannibal S3 I'm not sure about but s1 and 2 were great.

Watching wayward pines too... It's been pretty good (despite m.night shylaman being involved ;p)
