Been working my way through Justified, delighted to hear a final season is being made.
Currently watching the killing (American version) on Netflix, pretty good, on season three and felt the first two seasons started to drag but still watchable
True Detective. Fantastic dialogue and quite genuinely scary.
I'm currently on season 5 of House. Some episodes are a bit too predictable but it feels like I'm hooked!
Watching Top Gear just now.... Questions. Does James May, who I really like, pick his own outfit for the show?? If not who does? He actually makes Clarkson look stylish!! :shocked:
"Spiral" on BBC4
It's on Series 5 just now, but probably my favourite foreign-language series ever.
Wolf Hall - the adaptation of Hilary Mantel's fine novel. Mark Rylance is the saturnine Thomas Cromwell - a man who kicked up by his wits from low and unpleasant beginnings.
The BBC are making a big thing out of it but I feel it's too dark. Tudor life was bleak all right but there must have been crowds and music and street life.
The first episode was like a bunch of admittedly fine actors playing in various empty National Trust venues.
Can't get into Broad church but Silent Witness has been brilliant so far with these 2 parters.
I'm going to start Gomorrah soon. Heard good things about it.
Been having a Walking Dead fest. Start my backshift at 3pm, daughter away to school, wife at work, dog walked, housework done (I've hoovered!) now sitting down to start season 4....

Better call Saul starting up on Netflix on 9th February
Fortitude started well last night. You cant beat norsk noir.
I loved True Detective but I wish I could erase the last 10mins from my memory. A much better ending would've been a certain character dying in the climax. Could've done without the silly Hollywood happy epilogue ending which, for me, contradicted the whole tone of the series. Looking forward to season 2, though.
In other news, HD trailer for Game of Thrones season 5 released:

Can't wait!
I can't recall Banshee getting a mention on here before but Season 3 is 4 episodes in and I love it.
It has a great anti-hero as lead, some cracking supporting characters (include some rather attractive ones) and the fight scenes are always epic.
