@jegga I vaguely remember watching an episode in a motel in Rotorua.

I remember it being so shit we didn't even talk about it at school the day after it screened, unlike say the A team .

[jegga]

@Rancid-Schnitzel This was the movie, it was on Sky back when their only competition was the video store and they screened straight to video movies along with a few decent ones.

The Sinner

[Bones]

Just finished season 1 of Broadchurch and season 1 of The Honourable Woman. Both good, although Broadchurch better. Tennant in a bearable role.

I don't envy you looking forward to Broadchurch S2, although you then get S3 which is rather good.

[Bones]

@Kruse oh is S2 shit? The missus loved it.

[Kruse]

@Bones It's shit compared to S1. Still better than most other things available.

[Kruse]

Actually - now that you might be going into it with reduced expectations... I kind of DO envy you.

[Rembrandt]

@MiketheSnow Just watched the first couple eps. Looks good!

2 posts in and no mention that Jessica Biel stars. Awful.

Kruse is right , it is still pretty good though and Olivia Coleman is very cool.

American Gods - fucken weird but brilliant.

The Sinner is very good so far.

Broadchurch is also very good in S1, not so much S2 but still worth watching. I think Wallander is superior though.

[raznomore]

Also Ballers is light weight but probably my favourite program that isn't GOT

[taniwharugby]

@raznomore that reminds me, there was the final season of Wallander I havent seen yet.

[Crucial]

Finished Orphan Black.

Probably the best I can say is that it at least wrapped up the story without some off the wall weirdness. At least you finally got to understand the motivations behind the whole cloning thing and who was doing what to who.

Worth watching if that interests you (or you want to see Helena being Helena one last time).

Overall a series that was a bit of a victim of its own (relative) success. fans kept wanting to see more of Tatiana and the writers prolonged the story. In retrospect a shorter/less complicated 3 series run would have left a better legacy.

Wallander - good then? I read the first book - it was boring as fuck, and haven't been able to convince myself to give the whole thing a second chance. But looking at the description of the plot of the TV series... it sounds like the author deigned to write a little more outlandish (interesting) plots after that first one?

[taniwharugby]

@Kruse it isn't a must watch, but I enjoyed it.

I usually give most BBC productions a shot as they are usually pretty well done.

FFS , this crap costs the taxpayer $30000 an episode.
