Has anyone been watching 'Spiral' BBC 4 on Saturday nights?..I've only just caught this...Series 4 started last week with 2 episodes then another 2 last night...very good if you ask me but it's subtitled which I like but won't be everyone's cup of tea.

On the second series of Friday Night Lights atm, not as good as the first which was good watching if not a touch cheesy. Third series is on Sky atlantic now.

Halfway through Breaking Bad. What a programme, seriously recommend it to everyone. If not already familiar, its about an American family, Walt (the father and high school chemistry) gets lung cancer so decides to start cooking Meth to get money for his family.

Really well written and Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston are both scripted very well and do their job very well. Vince Gilligan has shown everyone how to write a tv series, however the first season goes quite slow, persevere!

breakdown wrote:Anyone watching Homeland? Really good follow up to the first series.

Also just curious, surely I cant be the only one who records all the episodes in a series and watches them back to back to avoid waiting a week for the next episode?

I had missed the last two so timed it tonight to catch up then watch the current episode...top class viewing....Sunday viewing

Finished watching Breaking Bad a few weeks back, im not too sure what can top it now. Very well written with a very good cast, has to be one of the best series ever made.

Got the US Netflix which has a lot of what should be good tv programmes on it, theres a lot I want to try and get in to. Lost, Dexter, Prison Break, Sons of Anarchy.

Seen someone posted above about How I Met Your Mother and Its Always Sunny in Philidelphia. Both quite funny, with silly humour. Rules of Engagement is decent too, for a modern comedy programme the US office is extremely funny, all 9 seasons of it on Netflix. Steve Carrell is brilliant in it

Watched Kick-Ass 2 and Elysium the other day. Kick-Ass was very good. Elysium was pretty crap.

Great film.

A film like that would never have been made on this side of the Atlantic.
