We have a thread for Movies and one for Music but I can't find a television thread anywhere, so here it is.



Has anyone seen The Wire? I'm obsessed with it at the moment. It's a US crime drama set in Baltimore, right in the middle of the drugs market and it's bloody brilliant. I'm only mid way through the 4th season so don't mention any impending deaths or convictions please.

Once I finish that I'm either making my way through the Sopranos or the West Wing next but I can't decide which to do first. Any ideas?

Never seen the Wire, might have to look into that.

the Sopranoes is excellent but what about 24 have you seen that? its in its 8th season now and its only had one bad one (season 6)

The new prequel to Only Fools and Horses is on Sunday at 9pm on BBC1, called "umpalumpa, Drugs, Rock and Chips".

Cushty!

I've seen season 1 and nothing after that. I was hearing that it jumped the shark a bit and just never bothered with the second season.

Definitely check out the Wire. It's only 5 seasons long with about 12/13 episodes per season (although they're a full hour long rather than the usual 40 for US shows).

How are they going to do a prequel? I'll take it they're using different actors because David Jason couldn't pull off a young Del Boy anymore.

Anybody seen Glee? It's entertaining enough, but the pacing is really weird - and it keeps changing. The first half of the Pilot was slow as molasses, then the second half was outrageously quick. Decent music.

I have never watched it but maybe I should.

Sopranos for the win as I tried the West Wing but it did not float my boat. I have been hooked on Law and Order for 20yrs and Cops. I really like Bizarre Foods and Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations.

Yeh i'll take a look at the wire for sure, watching Heroes and 24 at the moment which is ok, also started watching that Being Human i caught the episode of season 2 on BBC 3 its pretty good.

It's set in the 60's, so yes they're using different actors... however the actor who played Rodney will be playing Freddie Robdal, who was revealed to be Rodney's biological father in the last Only Fools episode.

I was leaning towards the Sopranos so I'll definitely go for that

yup 24 is quality, never seen any of them when they were on TV but I got the DVD set for Xmas and only started watching them the other night, pretty good stuff IMO, Think theres a new series away to start sometime soon as well

Has anyone seen The Wire?

I don't dare watch it because I watch enough TV as it is and I know it's the sort of thing I'll get into.

My favourites at the moment are NCIS (Gibbs rocks ), House and Grey's Anatomy.

I wish I had that channel because I heard Dexter is a great series and recent news is he, Michael C. Hall, is in full remission from Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

theres some great shows on the showtime network the Tudors is also a good one i like. But not that i know first hand but i hear there are torrent sites out there where you can get all 4 seasons of Dexter.

crap i didnt know Michael C Hall had that, glad he is in remission though.
