<p>didnt see that coming...final 2 eps are gonna be interesting, especially with the scenes we have already seen!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]As smart as Walt is, I reckon he has farked up twice in the last 2 eps;<br><br>
1 When on the phone to Jessie when Jessie was tricking him about the money. If Walt had seen past his greed to use this moment to tell Jessie he had been to see Brock, I reckon he may have broken him there.<br><br>
2 Telling those crims about the cash...he could easily have used Hank as leverage for him to cook for them.<br><br>
Although, I suspect the preview scenes we have seen, Walt is looking at revenge and possibily to recover his cash...[/spoiler]</p> -

<p>Season 6 of "Sons of Anarchy" kicked off last night. Apparently this season we are going for the "you won't like anyone" angle. Seriously, i don't know who the hero is anymore. It's bad things happening to bad people. </p>

<p>I still like Tig!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also on The Bridge - I know there are the other storylines going on but seems odd the 'main' storyline line has ended and still 2 eps to go??</p> -
<p>yea, i thought that too? That was a pretty good tie in to an ending i thought. I guess we will find out why those other side stories even existed. Who the fuck is the weird dude that talks through his cheeks? why is he there? And the tunnel lady?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]But, i had a thought. I get his motivation for the judge/mexican girl killing that started it. And all the other people he killed. But could he really be the Beast of Juarez? Why would he kill a bunch of mexican hookers? different bloke?[/spoiler]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Diane Kruger really is very good in this series. </p> -
<p>yeah that dude with the side-burns is an odd one, tying him into it as well as the whole tunnel thing will be interesting, as well as the brother...yeah she has done well with her character.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]In regard to killing all the hookers, Tate did mention something about that guy they shot/caught who they thought did it all, so unless Tate just manipulated people to doing stuff?</p>
<p>[/spoiler]</p> -
<p>BB - jeez that Todd is one cool customer!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Interesting to see how they finish this, been one hell of a ride, and while it will be disappointing to be over, the time is right.</p> -
Is that agents of shield any good? It's getting massive promotion here but strikes me that it will be a streaming pile of crap
-
<p>BB what a show. just an epic human interest story. I think it now sits a top my all time list. Best TV show ever.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ive been listening to the Breaking Bad Insider podcast, a drawing of the curtains by the writers ,actors and creator of the show, really interesting this past episode discussing how they did the snow scenes and the effort they went to and all the awesome scenes they had to cut. Skylers meeting scene was originally 9 mins before it got cut down.</p>

<p>Will let you know. First ep only just out.</p> -
Spoiler any Breaking Bad stuff please - some of us are only midway through.<br><br>
Boardwalk has started ok with Chalky being more prominent but it's still a show that promises heights and doesn't reach them,<br><br>
Every character on SOA seems to he going through multiple personality changes. I don't know which way is up with that show any more.<br><br>
First two episodes of How I Met Your Mother were pretty good in relation to the last few series. -

<p>If it's a spoiler, I will tag it. I am and everyone else is being pretty vague. I don't want to put it all unnecessarily in spoiler covers and not pique the interest of those who are thinking about watching it. Which they should, tis a great show.</p> -
<p>Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Exactly what you'd expect. It's no ground breaking TV but the first ep was surprisingly good. Like all first eps it was trying to balance between setting up the premise and telling a story but the quality was very similar to the Marvel movies without the huge budget pieces.</p>
<p>Set after the Avengers battle in New York, it will have an instant following but whether it holds the masses will depend on the storylines.</p>
<p>Like a mini-movie each week it's a bit of a bargain watch.</p> -

All I saw was Skylers name so I didn't read the rest .... so unsure of the vagueness or not.

No Love for Boardwalk Empire? - Season 4 has a new sinister character, the "Trinidadian Doctor" 3 episodes in and I am hooked again</p></blockquote>
<br>
Watched season 3 after a very long break as season 2 didn't really do it for me. Glad I did, best yet I reckon. Told my brother about it and he cleared through all 3 seasons in a couple weeks. Two eps in on the 4th, bit slow so far, hoping the 3rd changes that -
<p>I series linked a series on UKTV a few weeks ago called The Fear, watched ep 1 last night and looks like it could be a good watch.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Set in Brighton where a Mafioso type (the Irish father from Top of the Lake) is struggling with his mind slipping into dementia or similar while he also struggles to retain his hold on the town as the Albanian gangs look to take over.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also seen a couple eps of Da Vincis Demons, looks watchable, but nothing special.</p> -
<p>Jax Teller has no soul</p>

As I said, the characterisation on this show has gone to the dogs. I don't think they did enough build up work in turning him into another Clay. That's just my opinion but I feel like I'm watching a different show.<br><br>
I think Jimmy Smits should be added to every show to add a but of gravitous. -

<p>I'm not so sure. The whole arc of the show has been watching Jax change from an idealist to realist to a dark place. I'm expecting that the rest of the arc will either show his total downfall or saving.</p>
<p>Fair to say the show is in a pretty farked place at the moment though with few hints on where the light at the end of the tunnel is.</p> -

They seemed to speed up the arc in about 2 episodes!
