The TV Thread (GoT spoilers)

Tbh, the 'magic' is gone from 'Orange Is The New Black' for me. Piper has been annoying as fuck all season (im now to ep. 9), the power struggle between Red and Vee is not intresting and they managed to make all workers at prison very unlikeable and erratic without actually developing any good stroylines between them or inmates.

Finished both seasons of Hannibal.

The finale was something else.

Happy b-day, Paul!

Thank you! Possibly gonna fire up True Detective in a bit, but watched the first episode of Utopia earlier. Really enjoyed that. Was "WTF", but in a good way.

Looking forward to the last episode of Hannibal tomorrow night.

Rex

Oh, the finale is special!

Timbob

First scene in Utopia is memorable!

Started watching the IT Crowd. I used to glance at it and think it was a silly show but after watching one episode properly i decided to give it a go and its actually hilarious in parts. Each episode is a little over 20 minutes as well so its very easy to get through.

Only watched it recently too, its brilliant.

Yeah I never bothered with it the first time around but I get a good laugh out of it now.
The three main characters make it very watchable.

In all the great new TV series around there is a dearth of great comedy, Fresh Meat's the only standout one for me - have I missed something else over the past 12 months?

Watched the first couple of episodes of the IT Crowd over the weekend. Sold on it already.

Y have you tried Moone Boy?

The school in the first series of Moone Boy is my old secondary school.

That bloody finale. Like taking a sledgehammer to the stomach.

I haven't seen it yet and I've not heard much about it, good or bad.
I might check it out for myself, thanks for reminding me.

You should take this opportunity and watch the entire run of Psych, Y Va.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine steadily improved throughout the season and ended up a very good comedy, y va. Samberg haters are probably reluctant to watch it, but he did get a Golden Globe for his role here. Also, Brooklyn Nine-Nine got one for best comedy this year.

Definitely worth a watch and season 2 is starting soon I believe.

Samberg's hugely talented, I just wish he'd turn his hand to slightly edgier projects. The stuff he does is pretty much in the same slot as a famous comedy group called the D-Generation over here.

Yeah, it shook me somewhat! Loved Mads delivery of the line "in the pantry" when Alana asked him where Jack was. A nice comedic touch in a whole heap of horror.

Cheers for the recommendations!
I have watched Brooklyn Nine-Nine but didn't get any real belly laughs from it so I gave up.
Klaus the entire run of Psych is eight series 🙂, that'd take me about two years.
Generaly I like series with a maximum of eight episodes, True Detective and Sherlock were perfect on that score.
Silent Witness as well.
