Saddam Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I'm recommending Chernobyl again, I've watched the first episode 5 times this week and could quite easily watch it a few more times. The direction, acting, lighting, set design, costumes, scripting, music and above all, the accuracy of the whole thing makes you think you're actually there. Trust me, you'll never look at sunburn in the same way. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green demon Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Sons of Anarchy. I'm late to the party with this one but the first two seasons are a great watch. Banshee. One of the best TV series I've ever watched. Nothing complicated, just unbelievable violence that's actually hard to watch. Oh and a couple of super hot women chucked in.

Boojum Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 Still re-watching The Wire, up to season 4 (Clay Davis "Sheeeeeeeeeit." ). Every time I think about watching it again (this is my 4th time) it's cos I remember that it was good, but then every time I actually do watch it again I realise just how fucking good it actually was. Best TV crime drama ever made IMHO Just feels more authentic than anything else and covers everything from the street dealers right up to the politician motherfuckers and the script is consistently brilliant. Said it before, genuine masterpiece After seeing it talked about in the thread I'll definitely give Chernobyl a go after I finish re-watching The Wire (that's another HBO show, isn't it ? Fair do's, HBO do make some superb TV drama ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boojum Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 Decided to wait until the whole series is out to watch Chernobyl cos I've kinda got into the habit of watching the whole of summat in one go. Started watching Sharp Objects (another HBO show) starring the excellent Amy Adams. Probably not to everyone's taste (I'd guess a bit slow moving and too gloomy in tone for some) but I'm getting into it (was gonna say enjoying it but that's probably the wrong phrase).

I'm usually the same, but after watching episode 1 I just had to watch episode 2 last night. Episode 2 kicked episode 1's ass for sheer brilliance. If the next four episodes follow the same path then you're in for a real treat if you save them up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boojum Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 (edited) Finished Sharp Objects, was pretty good (and Amy Adams was excellent). Tried a few other things - The Blacklist, James Spader is pretty enjoyable hamming it up but the premise is ludicrous and the writing just isn't very good so gave up on that after a couple of episodes, gave The Last Panthers a go but didn't get into it, waste of a decent cast, gave The Tunnel a go but gave up after a couple of episodes (would have given up after the first one but watched a couple simply because Clemence Poesy is lovely ). Currently watching Goliath, which I'm enjoying (partly because Billy Bob Thornton is as superb as always - some actors just have that indefinable thing, I guess it's charisma or 'star quality' or whatever, and he's definitely one of them).

I'm with ya on that @Larry Badgeley Season 2 is being aired in the US at the moment, but will be available on iPlayer next month. And I'd recommend Years and Years, a BBC/HBO colloab, just ignore Russell Tovey's dodgy Mancunian accent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
