TV New Season!

[Calaen]

I gave up on The Last Ship a few episodes in, I always meant to go back and binge watch the rest of season 1 but never got around to it. I think I got pissed off with the vomit inducing "MERICA!" nonsense. Like, John-Casey-from-Chuck gave some speech on the bridge and somebody stepped forward and asked for "permission to salute the XO" or some mushy rubbish like that. It was entertaining though, I should go back and wade through it.

Aye it's very patriotic and American But I don't mind that a little bit.

The flag waving in The Last Ship have me cringe the few times I catch an episode (enough to have a rough idea of the storyline). But to be fair - it is a show centered around a US naval warship, so lots of patriotism is to be expected. Frankly, it would be rather odd if it wasn't, since their mission is to save the world (from the ship's point of view).

Forgot to say season 2 started about a week ago, picks up right where it left off.

 

[Calaen]

yup just watched the first two episodes

 

[Gwadien]

It's so cringey, but that adds to the love of it.

I just watch it as they've made it tongue in cheek, although they haven't.

 

[Hawkwind]

That goes for a lot of US TV

Watched Ep 1 of Zoo last night, based on a James Patterson book wife and kid liked it. Story about animals turning on mankind, could be good.

Mr Robot! Very good, feels a little bit like a hacker version of fight club, without the fighting but the same philosophy sort of, anyway it's brilliant so far.

yep I liked the pilot a lot, quirky and really well done.

 

[Calaen]

Fucking love Mr Robot, ticks so many boxes!!

Just finished the remastered version of The Wire and now can't decide whether to go for Boardwalk Empire or The Sopranos. Both shows I've never seen before

Any help?

 

[Lakih]

Was going to write something but realized it wasn't very helpful so i didn't. Sort of like this reply.

I'd go with The Sopranos. For no reason at all, I haven't seen either.

 

[Zarjazz]

The Sopranos.

Boardwalk is decent enough in places but it's no Sopranos.

 

[caLLous]

The Sopranos for sure. Boardwalk Empire has ups and downs (and it goes out with a bit of a whimper) but The Sopranos is solid all the way through.

 

[Moriath]

Boardwalk bored me

 

[Trem]

Breathing is only slightly more important than watching the Sopranos.

Yep. Might binge on a couple of seasons this weekend. Its my once a month sitting around in my underpants weekend.

My 15 yr old just finished his school year and pretty much done that for a week the lazy sod. If he's not on Xbone he's binge watching Falling Skies 4 seasons in a week!

Seen up to episode 3 so far and it's been excellent throughout. Definitely the best new show of the year. Great soundtrack too. Also

Spoiler

the Fight Club comparison may not just be in it's style. There's nothing so far that would rule out Mr Robot all being in his head, his own Tyler Durden.

Can't find the right fucking spoiler brackets on my phone keyboard but I totally agree, got to watch number 3 yet but I think we may be right. Fucks sake I need to say something that needs spoilers, will do so in the morning.

If you're missing homeland get watching Tyrant. 2/3 of the creators were also responsible for Homeland.

The last series was the best so far, awesome TV and really looking forward to the next one.

The runway scene..! Probably the single best piece of TV in the history of series. Had me on the edge of the seat, mouth wide open, heart pounding and adrenaline rushing through my entire body! And I watched it at my uni's library...

 

[ECA]

So uh new show called "Mr Robot"

It's like dexter, but with hackers instead of serial killers.
First 3 eps out, seems good so far.

You sooooo Glenn!!!

 

[MYstIC G]

Anyone watching Wayward Pines, any good?

I'm watching it with the other half, it's very 'jumpy' at the moment, everything gets rearranged every other episode but it's pretty watchable so far.

 

[MYstIC G]

The Sopranos.

Boardwalk is decent enough in places but it's no Sopranos.

Which is why you should do Boardwalk first. Good then Great

 

[Zarjazz]

Even though it's cancelled the preview for the last half of S3 of Hannibal looks fucking amazing. I'm shocked no other channel has picked it up already. Spoilers unless you've read / seen Red Dragon of course:

Agree with Mr. Robot.. for now.

And get in touch with Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. Stays loyal to the book and is bloody brilliant at the same time.
