s To Live And Die In LA to become a series on WGN America</a> -
<p>Anyone else seen Deutschland 83 yet? So far two episodes have aired on Sundance TV in the US. Set in West Germany in 1983, it is about an East German officer assuming the identity of a West German and living/spying under cover. German language, English subtitles. Great sound track, and pretty good so far. Obvious comparisons to The Americans.</p>

Episodes? Silicon Valley? Welcome to Sweden?</p></blockquote>
<br>
Silicon Valley is one of those shows that leaves me underwhelmed every time I watch it, but for some reason I want to know what happens in the next episode. <br><br>
Welcome to Sweden is great but I'd imagine alot of the humour would go over the heads of those who haven't lived in Sweden or Scandinavia. -
On the brink looked pretty good on the first episode , sample dialogue from memory <br>
" did you see the reports on Pakistan this morning?"<br>
" not unless they were written on the vaginal walls of the hooker you just interrupted me with"<br>
I'll be interested to see what the bomber crew get up to after dropping thd wrong pill <br><br>
Ballers was good but had far too much female nudity for my liking. -
<p>Fargo - a Coen brothers series, starring Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Freeman</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Black Comedy, where a series of events unfold leading to drifter Thornton meeting Freeman and doing a job for him, and what follows is a further events as every step of Freemans life is then traced back to the chance meeting of Thornton.</p>

<p>I really liked it, at the start of each episode it tells you it is based on a true story, which it isnt...</p> -
Nepia - have you tried Legit? Only a couple of seasons but a great watch. Veep isn't too bad either. You've probably seen The League?<br><br>
Oldie but a goodie is Green Wing. <br><br>
On a not exactly comedy note, I'm about to finish The Newsroom and reckon it's brilliant. If you haven't seen it, get on it, great viewing. I got halfway through episode one years ago and thought it was boring so shelved it...until it was all I had left on my tablet about a month ago, hardly watched anything else since. <br><br>
Started on The Messengers... Think I'm going to ditch it, maybe I need to watch it with my vagina but it hasn't really piqued my interest. <br><br>
Speaking of which - Aquarius (Duchovny) is also very good. Hank as a cop but slightly less outta control. <br><br>
White Collar is a bit of a guilty pleasure in the something stupid and easy to watch category. <br><br>
And lastly....I'm not having a bleat but I come in this thread mainly to see what's good to watch. Kinda ruins it if people give up on spoilers. <br><br>
Lost is a really shit God fest though. -
I had been wondering about Aquarius, ads look good. <br><br>
Am almost half way through Orphan Black and also started Orange is the new black (latest season of both) -

<p>Enjoyed the first episode. It has potential.</p> -
We've signed up for Netflix. It's awesome.

Seen some rather derogatory comments about it on FB...and less than ideal reviews

<p>Nothing on True Detective S2? Third episode, slow as slow, just a filler. Liked the first for character development, 2nd for .......... And 3rd as I said just a bit of a filler</p>
</blockquote>
<br><p>Worst episode so far. Almost comically bad. I liked how the first two were building with the interplay between <em>dodgy cop, PTSD cop and daddy issues cop*</em> and the little tidbits.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>*Nice description I read elsewhere.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hannibal S3 is on now. Apparently there definitely won't be a fourth. :(</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ray Donovan S3 has started too. Late to this so I'm catching up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also started watching Penny Dreadful which is better than I thought it would be.</p> -

<p> </p>
<p>Bit of an acquired taste I think that series, I have just finished the latest season, went a bit darker and more supernatural.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Finished Orphan Black, still enjoying it although think it is on the slide, unsure how long they can keep it up, then theres chucking new versions of the clones when they need to as well.</p>
