The TV Thread (GoT spoilers)

Timbob

Colin Farrell doing the biggest one man carrying job since David Villa at World Cup 2010 imo..

Armor

Really liked series 3 of Vikings until the last episode.

Qwiss

So glad Rectify is back. It really is a level above everything else these days. Only The Americans comes close.

Klaus

Rectify is brilliant. It's going to end up as one of the greatest shows from the new golden era.

Another thing that is brilliant about it is that Sundance are backing it hard. They renewed it for a 4th season before the 3rd one even began airing. During the first two seasons I worried constantly that it was going to get cancelled.

Gazza M

i'll be waiting for the full season of rectify to come out. really keen to see what happens after that season 2 finale. great show

Burnwinter

Agreed on all counts, it's the most intriguing show around.

Daz

I genuinely have no fucking idea how you lot find the time to watch so many tv series!

Gazza M

when youre married or in a ltr, tv shows and movies are literally the only thing holding the relationship together. these are facts

marv3llous

Hard hitting truths there, kids 🙁

Qwiss

And when you've kids by the end of the day you don't have the energy to do more than fall on the couch and have stories beamed at your face.

Daz

Well I am married and have kids too! My wife and I enjoy watching the odd series, but no way we could get through the amount of stuff some on here seem to watch.

Gazza M

i was being partially facetious there. but in all honesty, i dont watch actual television at all anymore. my viewing habit is streaming 1 episode of something each night, and that keeps me up to date with everything i want to watch. nothing too outlandish

Qwiss

Yep I download/stream everything too. I might watch 2 TV shows a night with the missus if we're lucky. If you stop watching all the rubbishy shite on normal TV you can get in a fair bit of decent scripted TV.

I probably watch seven or eight seasons of telly in a year and a fair bit of it's background viewing. Apart from Arsenal and films that's all I watch — no free to air or anything.

Shows I've watched this year would be GoT s5, Rectify s2, SOA final, Justified final and Daredevil. Planning on watching Hannibal and True Detective when their runs end.

Sounds like a bit but I might be working for around 2000 hours so it's about a twentieth of that.

The amount of time I waste on the internet is far, far beyond my TV consumption.

Qwiss

Watch The Americans instead of TD Burnsy.

I'm trying to get through some Netflix stuff I missed out on during the year when there was loads of stuff on actually. Bojack Horseman is decent. Watched a few episodes of Bloodline and its very dull. Trying to get into Sense8 now, quite liking it after 2 episodes.

Burnwinter

Yeah, tried The Americans not my cup of tea. No idea what you guys see in it, the leads are flat and the premise is stupid. 😉

Qwiss

Oh well seeing as you have no taste you'll love True Detective season 2.

Also Mathet Rhys has been the best actor on TV this year.

Rex

I enjoy quite a few of the shows and programs they have on the various National Geographic channels. Well invested in Wicked Tuna now, and the documentary about Orcas is pretty damn amazing.

😆 Sick burn comrade. I really liked the first season of True Detective though, it's not often a new show strikes out in a different direction in multiple different aspects—casting, ideology, cinematography. Reserving judgement on the new one.

The Americans is a lump of shite and Mathet Rhys wouldn't be out of place at Madame Tussaud's anyway …

QuincyAbeyie

Mr. Robot is very enjoyable so far, Rami Malek doing a good job as the lead. I don't like Slater, though.
