Series worth watching 18:09 - Oct 21 with 6375 viewsstuabd

Any good calls on some great series out there at the moment?

I have True detective to watch based on a friends recommendation.

Recent series I've loved have been game of thrones, breaking bad, killing, bridge, Arne Dahl.

Any recommendations would be appreciated. If not, I'll go back and pay homage to the Sopranos.

Homeland - Seasons 1 to 3 superb. Fourth has started but get the feeling they should have ended it after 3.

Battle Star Galactica (Re-imagined 2004 -2009) The best Sci Fi series ever.

Currently watching ''The Walking dead'' a bit gory but worth watching.
Banshee is a must watch too. Loads of sex and violence, nice.
24, Sopranos, Breaking Bad are also must see series.

Enjoyed:

True Detective
Boardwalk Empire
Ray Donovan (latest series particularly)
Homeland (last series lost its way - new series yet to start watching)
Penny Dreadful - bit different
Strike Back (good fun but a bit mindless)
Banshee (good fun but lacks depth)
The Fall (second series out soon)

Naturally The Sopranos best ever, followed by The Wire.

Reading the above I have concluded I need to get out more....

Am i the only one who got really annoyed with True Detective?

not going to give any spoilers or anything, but after half a dozen absolutely amazing slow-building, psychologically driven episodes, the last episode turned into a glorified version of 24 with action and shooting a plenty. i just got the feeling that they didn't know how to end it.

Can we not knock it?

You're not alone. I actually thought the ending (well, at least the last 30 mins) was disappointing but the build-up from the previous episodes is absolutely brilliant and makes up for it.

Vince Vaughn and Colin Farrell will be the main characters in season 2 I believe...it will be interesting to see how that turns out.

Just rewatched Sopranos all the way through for about the 20th time, I fckin love that show....

Currently catching up with Walking Dead, which I left at end of S2 but have been told to stick with as it gets better, now nearly on S4. Also got True Detective ready for when that's done.

Keeping up with Boardwalk Empire week to week, shame they have rushed this final season but it's good.

When I want something quick and light hearted I watch the Modern Family episodes I have downloaded, only 25mins each. It's American sitcom stuff but don't let that put you off, it's really good.

Comedy rather than drama, but It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is the funniest sitcom I've ever watched, regularly reduces me to tears.

5 complete sociopaths own the worst bar in Philadelphia and spend their lives trying to screw each other over. It's sensational, and each episode is 22 mins long so you can blitz it

Not read the rest of the thread; but there's this underground hit / 'cult' series called "The Wire"; you should check all 5 seasons of that out. .

Never seen it mentioned on Loftforwords before

Stringer Bell to replace Harry (football manager equivalent of Clay Davis) Redknapp as manager.

Concur with others on the Wire. Seasons 3 and 4 are the absolute peak.

Others worth watching:

- Breaking Bad
- The Bridge (remade in English as The Tunnel which is also good but only up to one series versus the two Bridge series made so far. Note: storylines are essentially the same so only need watch one)
- Salamander
- House of Cards (the 1990s original, not seen the new American one). Probably the best series ever made.

Blacklist is a bit OTT but fun and easy to follow.

First couple of Homeland series were v good.

If you're looking for comedy:
- Parks and Recreation is a must
- Veep is worth watching

The problem with that is that Stringer Bell is currently on Sky a lot doing media duties, which will p*ss off the masses

I'm always pissing off my family whilst watching films or other series.
'He was in the Wire.' He was in The Wire .He was in The Wire.'
They think I'm bullshiting but I'm not .They pop up everywhere. Especially in Walking dead lately.
