    How good is BB!

    I’ve only seen a couple of episodes but wasn’t impressed. Not sure if they were just bad examples.

    My wife and I have a rule – if it’s recommended – give it 3 episodes before deciding 🙂

    The Wire is the best TV ever IMO but can be a slow burner compared to more modern stuff.

    Also try in no particular order:

    The Killing
    Boardwalk Empire
    Game of Thrones
    Dexter
    Homeland
    Walking Dead

    All good.

    The title of best TV show ever clearly belongs to The Sopranos. As good as the The Wire was, and it was stunning TV, The Sopranos was miles ahead. The Wire had fantastic narrative but script acting plot lines & story development there’s been nothing like The Sopranos and of course James Gandolfini RIP 🙁
    Just picked up The Affair features Dominic West & that bird from Luther 😉 http://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/the-affair/s01/
    Also a mini series called Transparent that was on Amazon prime was great, both are available by the ‘usual’ means

    Gomorrah – Italian version of the Wire, great
    Southland – very good and went under the radar somewhat

    Tried Southland but didn’t resonate, the film Gomorrah is wicked. The French series The Returned was a favourite of mine, soundtrack by Mogwai filmed in the alps & the dam at Tignes features heavily in it too. 🙂

    then watch The Wire The Corner.

    then watch The Wire.

    ps: I’ve got that book but not read it yet, is it good?

    Yes, excellent. A great picture of a homicide unit working in a violent city at a particular time. Without Simon’s experience shadowing the Baltimore Homicide Dept for a year the Wire would never have been written. Many of the small incidents in the Wire are actually genuine incidents that Simon saw or heard about during that year. THe co-producer of the Wire, Ed Burns was a Baltimore homicide detective during the year Simon shadowed the unit.

    I thought that Orange is the new Black was awful!

    I thought that too, but kept going as I had nothing else to do, and got hooked. It turns into a really good series!

    Now there is a new Scandi series on Sky, so Wednesday evenings are sorted 🙂
