That is kinda the point, exploring how he became the henchman of "Saul" as well as how Jimmy became "Saul" himself!

Watched the final ep of season 2 of Banshee last night, wtf was the shoot out in the church all about? The A-Team didnae waste that many bullets!
Just watched "Stop at Nothing: The Lance Armstrong Story." Absolutely fascinating stuff. If you get a chance to watch it you won't be disappointed. It's on Netflix.
I'll raise you Siobhan! :-)
I have enjoyed, via US/UK Netflix, the following shows:
Breaking Bad
The Walking Dead
The Killing
House of Cards
Bates Motel
Am onto Better Call Saul now.
So I am off moby dick today. Had a look on Sky On Demand for a new box set to watch. Saw Downton Abbey, thought I would give it a try. Maybe not the most manly thing to say but hooked already half way through the first series!!!
To my surprise, House has lost it's seat at the top table, my top 3 are: 3. LUTHER 2. HOUSE MD 1. Breaking Bad, only wish I had listened to my brother and watched it a long time ago :cb
Anyone catch CITIZENFOUR last night?? A fantastic film. The Self proclaimed world police that is the United States Government really are the ****in lowest of the low. Self serving bunch of tossers. Land of the Free?? Aye, free to spy on whoever they want.
I'm up to speed with the US timeline of Banshee. I absolutely love it. Not sure if I've ever seen a more brutal show. There is a fight scene in season 3 to watch out for that involves Proctors right hand man. It is absolutely outstanding - and that episode in particular is simply outstanding TV.
The show has constantly kept a good pace, and they've done well to keep you rooting for the "sheriff" :wink:
Walking dead also superb, and after being a huge Breaking Bad fan, I am thoroughly enjoying Better Call Saul. I thought it was going to be much more comedic based on Saul in Breaking Bad, but it has the same kind of atmosphere as BB did and has been great so far.
I watched the first 2 of Fortitudem, and will watch a couple more tonight I think to try and get up to speed with it. It has potential, but seems a bit mad.
We started to see in season 2 that his sidekick was a bit mental!
Best things I've seen ontv over the last10 years had been 24, The Wire and The Bridge (Danish/Swedish, with subtitles).
Only 2 seasons of about 10-13 episodes. I thought it was absolutely phenomenal. Can't believe no one's already mentioned it, although someone did mention the remake "The Tunnel"..
I've just watched the last episode of Wolf of Wolf Hall on catchup. For me it has been the best thing on TV for years. Absolutely outstanding acting and a subtle and intelligent series. the production too was brilliant. Clare Foy and Mark Rylance, I am sure will win a slew of awards for their performances
I also finished watching the end of Spiral on catchup. Episodes 10 and 11 were great but I found the ending disappointing and unconvincing-a shame as it had been excellent up till then
For me, the Sopranos, Lost and Breaking Bad were all perfect tens :-)
One thing that I don't think has been mentioned is Happy Valley. I missed it when broadcast as Sarah Lancashire is not really my cup of tea, but watched it on a recommendation. Outstanding performances and scenes that will take your breath away. Little wonder they're doing a second season.
Aye, it was good.
I love the Musketeers :greengrin
I missed it when it was on all those years ago so now catching up with Spooks on Sony tv. Good programme.
That channels a nightmare (they showed the first 5 series, stopped for over a year then came back with series 7 - they've now stopped midway through that series as well now).
Has no-one mentioned House of Cards yet?
Series 3 is now up on Netflix..... my next few weeks' viewing is sorted......:greengrin
What is everyone's thoughts on Fortitude ? Don't think it's that good to be honest.
Just starting season 3 of HoC. Hope it is as good as the others!
Still got a ridiculously long introduction!
