Last night's episode of The Walking Dead was amazing/horrendous.

Still processing it but wow that is FUBAR.

Love Parks & Rec. I wish I worked for Ron Swanson. Can't wait for the next season to come out.

Just started Sherlock, which is quality so far. 

Finished 30 Rock which didn't quite live up to expectations for me. Had some good gags and all, but you didn't really feel much connection to the characters. More of a time filler than something you want to watch more of.

Saw first two episodes of Derek. Thing that made me laugh was that Karl Pilkington didn't appear to be acting. Its like he wrote his own lines.

watched the first episodes of Broad City and Review with Myles Barlow last night.  Broad City is alright, but oh my fucking god Review is amazing.  The funniest thing I have ever seen on television - I was in absolute tears.

The first two episodes of Fargo have been good. Very much in the spirit of the movie.

We got Soho just for this. I dunno it's good but I don't think great. Billy Bob steals every scene he is in and Freeman is good as well I just think the script meanders a bit too much.

Haven't seen the Spacey version but all 3 seasons of the British one are on YouTube. It's dated a bit but still damn good IMHO.

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.

Christ Fargo just try and stay close to real life.


The Billy Bob character drags some character from an office block by his tie right through to the basement and the guy does nothing apart from clutching at his tie???


You are being dragged along the floor by your tie and you don't actually think to struggle or get on your knees so you can get up and resist?


it just annoys me this show. It's like we are based on an amazing film, have great actors but can't get a plot sorted for our lives, we don't have to try.

It is actually Review with Forrest MacNeil, and it is amazing. Finished the series and my god, watching it is probably the greatest thing I have ever done in my life. Ever. Fuck being born, or getting married, or first watching Raiders of the Lost Ark, this smashes them all out of the ballpark.

Doing some extensive research (well, looking on google) it appears it is a re-make of an aussie show called Review with Myles Barlow, which I am now going to try and get hold of. If the aussie one is anywhere as good as the american one, it will be FUCKING AMAZING.

I give watching Review 5 stars.

Brooklyn nine nine is amazing. Its an andy samberg cop comedy... and though that sounds horrible, it is quite fantastic.

I know I'm years too late but started watching breaking bad yesterday, completely lives up to the hype and only 3 episodes in, genius

I remember reading this a while back (had never watched any either) so when we had a couple of weeks off my wife and I bought and watched the entire series right through.

Freaking mental!!

Have been enjoying "The Blacklist" as a bit of Sunday evening bubblegum TV, but quite a weak finale tonight I thought.

I enjoyed The Moaning of Life with Karl Pilkington. I think the "Happiness" episode was the funniest.

Watched three episodes of "The Bridge" tonight. Super addictive. Roll on the shit weather this weekend so I don't feel bad about staying in to watch.

End of an era.  Vinnie - It's over.

I've just started watching this too... I agree, great show and we worth the watch. Already been re-new for second season too.

I'm an optimistic pessimist. 
I'm positive things will go wrong.
