"Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much. Breaking Bad, Homeland done Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?"

"Livingston was also good in Loudermilk, a series he did for 3 seasons and ended a couple years ago. Though its Seattle is painfully Vancouvery Canadian. Not as bad as Psych trying to make it Santa Barbara, mind you."

"NS, you might not have seen but Dexter Fletcher (English actor from Lock Stock, the Press Gang kids programme in the 80's, etc) is one of the producers of The Offer. He was in Band of Brothers so has pulled in a few of his old mates to be part of this project. I spent a fair amount of time with Ron Livingston (Captain Lewis Nixon) from BoB this summer and we had a bit of a joke about how disappointed he was at not getting a call to be part of The Offer. He did say that the cast of BoB are all still really close and regularly meet up on anniversaries of the filming."

"Brother Mouzone has just pitched up. FMOB , it's like Martin Luther King playing The Terminator."
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
5 episodes in no The Watcher and highly recommend. Intriguing to say the least. Not really a fan of series longer than a handful of episodes but this has got me hooked.

"Nurse - great stuff, I love The Wire. Many excellent characters, hard to pick a ‘best’ season as they are all really well done. Freamon is probably my favourite character."

Nurse 3:40 Great choice one of the best programs ever made. Really gets going in season 3. Omar is one of the best characters in it.

"Yep, Hostel was below the belt, I still sometimes think about those films, it's not so much what you saw but the thought that something like that actually happening to someone. Have to agree with Nuts, it's it's too gory (or even violent) who the fuck wants to see it."
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
"yeah fair enough, if it's a good film I'm ok with gore, but films like Hostel are too much for me, I'm already well aware of what it's like to be tortured for 90 minutes."

"Mr.Anon, In a word, Yes! I didn’t get far enough into it to see any gory scenes, however if they were too graphic I would have probably switched off too. I switched off the latest Texas Chainsaw massacre movie for that reason….."

"Running fashionably late, as usual, I've finally started on The Wire. A few episodes into series 2. It's as well written and well acted and gritty/grim as everyone says, but I wasn't expecting it to be so funny in places. Delighted so far."
