Topic starter
 

Apologies, I know this has been asked many times before but the search didn't bring up much.

Will have a few evenings to kill on Holiday as tethered to the house by the kids in the evenings.

We have loved the wire, breaking bad so anything lese that is along those lines.

Recommendations welcome.

If you found Breaking Bad too cheerful, try Oz

The Bridge was really good. Like Game of Thrones too.

Deadwood is fantastic, but some people have issues with it being a 'western'.. it is so much more than that.

BSG, enough there for a year.
Game of Thrones
Going even further back, Lost? Expect a polarising view on that one.

Love hate. The Wire moved to Dublin, very good series. And with one actor from the Wire in it as we'll.

Prisoners of War. It is the Israeli series that Homeland was based on.
I thought series 1 was very good but series 2 was simply outstanding.
Easily the best thing I have seen in years.

If you watch one a week, perhaps. I think I hoovered it up in about a month.

Lately I have been enjoying: Person of Interest, True Detective, Utopia, Continuum, Almost Human.

The Almighty Johnsons - a series about Norse gods living in New Zealand, I guess that it sounds daft and it is daft, but also very funny!
