good TV shows
« on March 11, 2013, 11:10:28 pm by ponte_ricky »
What TV shows are you all into?

My current favourites have got to be Breaking Bad and Nip/Tuck as well as Entourage just for being the coolest show going. Nip/tuck has a perfect blend of having gripping storyline's and pretty suave characters and some really hilarious moments (not to mention lots of nice girls). I find Breaking Bad similar in those aspects (although replace hot girls with meth addicts).

gimme your best shows people,

Ricky

Walking Dead.

Theme's been done to death a bit over the last few years but the way they've put the show together is quite good really.

I love Family guy.. Stewie is a small strangely wierd god..lol

Loved Ripper Street, and I'm rather embarassed to admit it, only 17 years after the rest of the world I love Midsomer Murders.

Breaking Bad is fantastic. Probably my favourite show, can't wait for the last series but at the same time will be slightly gutted it's over. Love me some of that hard-hitting American drama, Battlestar Galactica is another great show. How they managed to turn that unbelievably camp sci-fi into serious drama is beyond me, but they somehow managed it.

Also another show that's coming back soon, Archer. Probably the funniest comedy going right now.

Walking Dead.

I really want to love Walking Dead but to me it seems like there's 2-3 boring episodes for every amazing one. I still watch it every week though cos you don't want to miss it when it does get good! Production values on it are incredible though.

Going back a bit, but X Files (minus the last 2 seasons).
24. The concept is fantastic, which no other show could ever mirror.


More recently - Homeland.

A fat bloke wi some darts striving to make it on the PDC circuit. It's gripping. You don't realise what these athletes have to go through.

;)

My favourites at the moment are Walking Dead and 10 seconds of The football league show.

I subscribed to Netflix a couple of months ago, one of the best things I ever did, some great shows on there.  You get a 1 month free trial with the link below and can cancel any time, very easy.

https://signup.netflix.com/

Anyway, on topic, I'm currently watching Dexter.  Up to Series 4 at the moment, would highly recommend to anyone. 

Also watching 'The Following' on Sky Atlantic which is very good, although a bit weird

In The Flesh, a new British zombie thing starting on Sunday on BBC3, looks rather good.

Might have a look if tv's slow tonight, cheers.

Aye, there's some films I'd not heard of til I looked on there (I quite like The Chaperone with Triple H in), glad I invested in it in that sense.
