One More on the Telly

Yup. Rami Malek was, to me, only known as the awkward gay guy across the street in The War at Home. Never would've thought that he could carry a series at his own, but that is in fact what he's done.

Oh he was brilliant. Doubt he'll get even an Emmy nomination for it but its certainly one of the best performances on TV this year.

Just finished Under the Dome. Third season got weirder as it went on but having come that far I had to find out whether they ever got out. When I heard it was cancelled I feared it would end not knowing what happened but thankfully it had a decent finale and an adequate ending.

Anyone watch This is England 90?

Irishgunner

I've just started mad men, quite good so far

One of the best shows ever.

It sits firmly in my top 10 for sure. Only a handful of shows I'd put ahead of Mad Men.

Good but overrated.

Agreed. Also got boring by season 4/5 in my opinion.

Jens

Personally I don't think there are ten TV shows ever made that I would consider great. For me the top tier consists of The Sopranos, The Wire, Breaking Bad and The West Wing. Deadwood and Oz at a push. Beyond that Mad Men for me is next up. The show has it's flaws but it's beautifully directed and deftly written with slow burning storylines.

Qwiss

I'd have it right up there with The Sopranos and The Wire.

Yeah I was over it by season 4 as well. Just didn't like the Don Draper character anymore and that is 90% of the show.

Just finished Fargo. Haven't seen the film but really enjoyed the series. Recommended if you haven't seen it yet.

Jens

The film is great too.

Qwiss

Watch Review with Forrest MacNeil, its the best.

Gazza M

Overrated how? I think it's perfect.

I love Mad Men. So much so that Jo and I are watching the final episodes very slooooooooowly, as we don't want it to end.

Rex

You mean you have watch at 0.5 speed? That can't be good... 🙂

GaelForce

I cried like a baby during one of the last episodes, won't tell you which one.
