<p>Anyone had a look at Trailer Park Boys? Ostensibly a fly on the wall documentary following the trials and tribulations of two guys from a trailer park that are released from jail and how they are integrated back into their home environment. In reality a glorious piss take with several not particularly subtle jokes running through the series. Sometimes a bit same old, but quite often bloody funny.</p>

<p>That wasn't a bad show, such fucked up characters. You might want to check out this too, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_Me_Fitz�"></a></p> -
Thanks Jegga but what is 'this'?

Not sure what happened there, my least coherent posts usually come from my phone -

<p>No plans to even show it in NZ and there are no other ways of paying to watch so I have no qualms in finding other ways.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Do you get the double episode first up? It's actually two episodes (hours) but they were shown back to back to kick things off in the US.</p> -
<p>Slightly on the topic of downloading and/or watching TV via 'non sanctioned' ways, it has been interesting to see how GoT panned out.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The producers have openly stated that this, the most downloaded show in history, has benefited from that position. Mainly due to the exposure to more people creating talk and a groundswell that has translated back to the broadcast.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Heres a graphic that shows how the audience has grown each series. Most notable thing I see is the big jump from each season end to the next season start. That could be re-runs, but will also be people catching up via other means then hooking in.</p>

<p>I'm going to be old fashioned and buy the first 3 seasons on DVD when i am past that stage in the books again. </p>

Finale of Vikings, pretty good! But for a History Channel production they seem to be veering a bit (unless the version I found was wrong)<br><br>
[spoiler]i thought Horik would need to go (supposedly he doesn't die here in recounts of Viking history, and isn't really that involved...unless I am looking at the wrong Horik)<br><br>
I was convinced Flokey had lost his way, but had an inkling something was up when he fed the fungus to Rollo and then the other guy with him supposedly dying, as well as not killing Bjorn (although again having read a little about Bjorn....) when the opportunity was there, but was good he hadn't as I like him. Also interesting how he played the role to his wife also. <br><br>

Stink, but not surprised...<br><br>
Anyone seen the mini-series Klondike? Just saw the trailer on Discovery and looks pretty good, Ridley Scott and a decent looking cast. -

<p>For those following (or about to follow) Revolution, it has been canned.</p>

<p>I guess that was to be expected ... unsure if they can tie the whole thing up in the last one or two episodes. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I enjoyed the show, but it jumped around like crazy with it's storylines.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One thing that annoyed me the entire time is that in the early flashbacks they were starting to show (I think) how Bass and Miles became the leaders of the Monroe Republic. They had a scene where they took out some fellows and Miles was the ruthless one and Bass was trying to calm him down. I was always waiting for the follow up flashbacks to that and they never came ... frustrating! </p> -

<p>Is it starting? I mentioned it on this thread a while back as I had heard good things but haven't bothered to track it down.</p> -

Great stuff in Game of Thrones lastnight, the final show down between Tyrion and Tywin was epic<br /><br />
-
<p>spoiler up that GOT shit bro!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Watched the first 2 episodes of 24 last night. jack Bauer is still awesome, and i am instantly hooked. </p> -
<p>yeah I thought it was pretty blah until the last part, was wondering if they were ever gonna get around to it!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]Last nights ep almost seemed like a time filler, even though there is a heap of stuff they could put in, but will leave out.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good to see they gave a bit to Varys, and some may have missed or not realised the significance of the piece between him and Tyrion.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Still plenty of death to come of characters we know, will be disappointed to lose a couple of them.[/spoiler]</p>
