Better Call Saul is excellent. But it gets really good when Lalo Salamanca comes in.
Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?
- Thread starter Red Pavan
- Start date
I'll definitely watch all of this season and see where I'm at. I want to like it because I really like the characters, but I'm getting to the point where I'm forcing myself to watch it now. Hopefully, it clicks by the end of this season/beginning of season 3.
It really does pick up from S3 onwards. If I wasn't already a BB fan I probably would have fecked it off after S2 but I'm glad I stuck with it, becomes a genuionely great show.
Struggling near the end of s2 mad men, was really hooked by s1 but it feels like the main male characters arent evolving. Usually fast fwd through any hook up scenes, gets tedious after a while.
I'm a little late but taking advantage of a short subscription to one of the amazon channels I started Gangs of London, for the moment it seems very good.
I also started Brave new world, based on the book, about an alternative future.
I really liked it until I found out it was canceled
. I hate watching shows that get canceled after the first season.
Now I started "The one" on Netflix.It's decent

I sometimes felt that way with mad men, but i kept going and it ended up being one of my favourite shows. The ending to season 3 is well worth waiting for and season 4 is good throughout. definitely persist with it if you haven't got anything better to watch.

I’d advise sticking with it, it’s one of my all-time favorites but like a lot of shows suffers a little second season dip.
I'll stick with it, though wount watch as prolifically. Half way through season one I was putting it as an all time favourite.
Just alittle tired of Draper and Sterling
Good to hear.
Yeah, same with me. The only reason I've been sticking with it this long is because I like the characters, so I'll definitely watch all this season and give season 3 a chance.
Good man has to do bad things for the greater good.
I finished it and was not pleased. Some of the character motivations were beyond stupid and there are too many coincidences in order to move the plot forward, which is just lazy writing.
I would have given up were it not for Cranston.
That’s probably getting cancelled too since it’s NetflixI'm a little late but taking advantage of a short subscription to one of the amazon channels I started Gangs of London, for the moment it seems very good.

Gets tedious in parts, you will definitely have to suspend reality at times to get through it, but it’s a decent series overall.
Underwhelming show overall.
You would have really enjoyed the IRA season.
Do you mean that in the sense that it was so bad?
There was even an Irish born actor in it who did a shite Irish brogue.
I’m three episodes into Snowfall. It’s shaping up to be excellent.
Gomorrah is so so good
Yes. Plot holes, terrible script, bad acting, etc.
I had just watched four or five episodes of the first season and could see what would happen. It was basically crime/monster of the week format which i hate.
Halfway through season 2 of the Wire and I've never wanted to work on the docks more. I wish my current employer allowed for breakfast shots...
Just watched the trailer, it looks awesome
Prime video?
How would you rate it, in comparison to breaking bad? Is it close to as good?
I loved it, BB is a bit more action oriented, but I felt this is just as good, particularly the last two seasons.
Thank you. I loved breaking bad. If this is anything like it (even if it's slower paced), it should be great.
Yeah as a BB fan, you would definitely like it, as it delves into the stories of a lot of the best characters from BB.
Yeah, it's on Prime. First 3 episodes were released in one go a few days ago. Can't wait for the fourth now.
Although I am enjoying Superman & Lois, I think between these two shows it's Invincible that I'm most looking forward to the next installment of. It's been the best comic book show of the year so far, imo.
Watch all of episode 1, and try not to get hooked.

It's ridiculously good so far. Stellar voice cast too.
I've really no shows left to watch. I've completed Amazon and just currently rewatching Punisher.
The Terror was decent on BBC. Historic supernatural horror produced by Ridley Scott.
10 episodes. Based on the story of HMS Terror in the 1800s.

Yes. I'd rate BB higher personally but BCS is very good too.
Have you seen the second season? I've not got around to it yet myself but I've heard good things.
I didn't even know there was a second season until I looked on IMDB after finishing the first.
Apparently the reviews say it's pretty poor and doesn't relate at all to the first so a totally different story?
That said the first season is easily 8.5/10
I'm obviously listening to the wrong people
but yeah it's unrelated to the first season. I think they initially planned to have several seasons each based around the folklore of different cultures but if season 2 was poorly received then that's probably the end of that.I'm obviously listening to the wrong people
What did you think of S1?
Much the same as you, I thought it was excellent. Very strong cast.
Very much so. Also for me they weren't that well known. Hickey was a particularly interesting and complex character.
I just came on to write about this. I saw some guy on Instagram plugging it with his free merch, then later that day scrolling through Amazon saw it and thought I‘d give it a go. The ending of the first episode had me shook. I did not see it going that way at all. So glad it did and then revealed itself for what it is
cartoon version of The Boys.Smashed the rest of the episodes back to back and thought it was really good. However Rexplosition, everytime he speaks I just keep hearing Jay from Big Mouth. I take it its the same voice actor. Just hasn’t decided to change anything about it.
I'd say it's The Boys mixed with Rick & Morty, moreso. The intergalactic element to it and the comedy really reminds me of R&M for some reason.I just came on to write about this.

It is great though.
(Also worth noting that the comic was written three years before The Boys comic!)
