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.

Most of the way through Luke Cage - has a soundtrack that @dK would love.

The pace is a little slow, which is what I found with the second season of Daredevil but I like it. Really got that 70s Blaxploitation feel to it.

Hey mate there's not enough NZ content on air in Australia, want to buy a show called 7 days for $30000 an episode?
Its really good.

@jegga actually I think Filthy Rich is on here late night, as well as Motorway Patrol and SCU.

Those two ex-military horis also had a run with their survival show here a while back.
