Ah yes, I'm watching Homeland, it is a good one... slow burner though...

Notice to all who may post... please don't spoil any shows if you have seen them... I only wanna know if they are good or bad... I'm happy for a synopsis but only if it doesn't give anything away! Thanks! Smile

The greatest tv series of all time (in my opinion) is 'Life On Mars' (both series). The follow up to that; 'Ashes To Ashes' (3 series), carries on the story well and the ending came out of nowhere, man.

I watched 'Lost' until it switched to Sky. I don't have Sky.

I have not seen any of the others.

I have recently watched 'One Night' on BBC 1 that told a story from 4 people's perspective of one night, funnily enough. Great drama.

The Wire. It's just brilliant. Superb acting, brilliant characters and so bloody clever. It is often said that if Dickens was born in the 21st Century and in inner city Baltimore, instead of Great Expectations you would get The Wire.

You will say it is a slow burner without a doubt. In fact it isn't unusual to say a few episodes in season one you'll be scratching your head a little bit. But give it some love and attention and boy, you'll get it back ten-fold.

Listen to Charlie Brooker talk about it here.

I have the full boxset if anyone is tempted.

OK... I'll give the wire a go... I've been told by a few people it's a slow starter but awesome... with most of them saying it's the best thing they've ever watched...

ON DISK? Like in the 1990's? Wink (that said, I may take you up on a lend of this Wink )
