    Hannibal is the one show I'm waiting to return more than any other this year and in my view Mads has eclipsed Hopkins, this is the authors Hannibal so much more.

    Wolf Hall

    Simply brilliant, Mark Rylance as Cromwell is mesmirising, don't watch if you don't like a slow pace but if you enjoy the likes of TTSS the TV series you'll be right at home.

    Skins I hate Effy. Effy is just an annoying posh girl and the whole "oooh look at me I'm such a rebel and I'm so mysterious" act is so boring. And all the lads on the show seem to think she's really fit but she does nothing for me. There's nothing about her that's interesting and I feel like the only reason she's still in it was to have some sort of link to the first two series.

    I hate Freddy too. He's just a whiney little bitch. He's decided he really likes this girl that he's barely ever even spoken too and now he's all stroppy because Cook f***ed her. He's so bland too, no personality at all.

    And I hate Pandora. She's just really annoying.

    The rest of them I like. Cook's brilliant, really funny and I like the bits with him and JJ. I like the twins too, Emily's cute, Katie's a bit of a bitch but that's sort of the point and they're both really fit. I like Naomi too and I like the African kid.

    Oh, and Gareth off The Office was in it, which was cool. He's funny in it. I liked it when he necked the pot noodle to try and show off how hard he was.

    Someone recommended Skins to me when I was still in high school and I have to say I've never seen a show with such unlikable characters and such awful storylines. I especially agree with what you said about Effy, she's just rotten to the core and makes things nearly unbearable to watch. The most irritating thing, though, is that it's passed off as some profound tv series whilst it's very poorly written melodrama about a bunch of drug-using privileged teenagers.

    Apparently, Danny Boyle cast Dev Patel in Slumdog Millionaire after seeing him in Skins and although I think Patel is a terrific actor, I really wonder how Boyle could cast an actor based on their performance on that show. Movie directors must have a great eye to recognize a good actor in bad material. (:

    I've just finished of the first half of series 5, and i'd agree. I hadn't watched any of this show until about 3 weeks ago.

    Just reasontly watched Live another Day, was hooked as usual had some great moments and genuinely sad ending. Devane was superb!

    2/3s the way through day one, just ordered Day two and have three already. Really enjoying revisiting the show, I really only discovered 24 around Day four when it originally aired. When it was on TV missed much of the earlier episodes. With box sets i can watch four or five episodes back to back.

    THE MAFIA with Trevor McDonald.

    What an eye opener, so looking forward to part 2 next week. To see and hear what went on from former members of the Mob was simply astounding! Scary but fascinating stuff. If anyone is interested it will be on the ITVPlayer. Well worth a watch!

    Does anyone here watch The Blacklist? It's a hidden gem among all the other crime shows on today. Some of the episodes really feel like the plots have Bond potential, and James Spader is an excellent actor in the show, and might as well be a straight-up Bond villain

    Me and my girlfriend have been binge watching SPARTACUS on Netflix. That show rocks and there's enough nudity for everyone, lol

    We most recently got to the Season 1 finale-- which is bittersweet because now we know it's Andy Whitfield's final episode :(

    But the show rocks and I love it.

    BTW there are a LOT of actors on this show who ended up being on Arrow, including Captain Boomerang, Nyssa al Ghul and of course, good ol' Deathstroke


    'HEY KID...' lol he has the coolest voice

    I even heard Arrow's Stephen Amell was one of the possible replacements for Andy Whitfield! And now (of course) the actual replacement Liam McIntyre is on The Flash!

    I urge you all to give this show a chance-- I didn't like the pilot episode at all, but apparently it was directed by one guy (who was going for more of a '300' vibe) and the rest of the show ditched the idea. So what we're left with is a bad pilot episode and a GREAT rest of the series. That almost never happens

    BBC House of Cards. For fans of the Spacey series, this BBC series aired almost 25 years before the American version. The series was only 4 one hour episodes, so stories and characters aren't as developed at the new series. Ian Richardson, however, is a charmer.
    One might say the original FU is better than the new one, but of course I couldn't say that.

    Agreed. The original FU is a legend. There were two sequels also (To Play the King, which is excellent, and The Final Cut which is not so good imho but still better than a lot of tv out there). Worth picking the set up on the remastered blu ray that was released a few yrs back.

    I just purchased and watched the entire season 5 of the Avengers on Blu ray (US Region 1 release). I am at a loss for words.

    Two Words to be exact: Diana Rigg
    Ok, maybe three Words: Mrs. Emma Peel

    Absolutely amazing to see her in all her delectable splendour in HD. Truly stunning.

    I'm sure everyone's familiar with this cult show but if not, I suggest taking a look. Totally 60's, totally quirky, totally British. John Steed, played by the inimitable Patrick Macnee (sorry Mr. Fiennes, you're great, but you're no Macnee) is the quintessential bowler hat wearing, umbrella twirling English gentleman spy. Emma Peel, played by the lovely Diana Rigg, is his super stylish, incredibly witty and smart, serious butt kicking assistant. Together they solve all kinds of eccentric capers, all while retaining classic English charm, humour & finesse.

    The show looks better than ever as well, since it's a remastered version. I remain amazed at how advanced some of the concepts (sci-fi) were for their time, and it's great to see great actor cameos in their prime (e.g. Peter Cushing, Peter Bowles, Donald Sutherland etc.). Athough it's a little 'off-the-wall' at times, Mrs. P makes up for it..

    I hope they release the first Rigg season (Season 4 which was all black & white) on Region 1 US Blu. If not, I'll have to buy a region free blu-ray player and purchase the UK version that was already released earlier this year.

    Mrs. Peel rocks!
