Started Crashing recently and I digg it. HBO show about stand-up with a bunch of stand-up guests stars that play a fictional version of themselves. Heard about it from Bill Burr who had a part in the 2nd season that just started.
Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?

I didn't like it as much as season 1, it lacked the connection you got to the victims in season 1 with the Rance family. Also I didn't like the sub-plots as much as the ones from the first season.
Seen 5eps of Godless... And yeah the scenery is great, the long shots are fantastic but hmmm...it's not griped me yet.
Keep going I loved it but on the other hand I liked it from the beginning.
The Exorcist is average as feck.
Thought it was brilliant myself, but it is quite slow so I can see why people wouldn't.
Started watching 'The Chi' and really recommend it if you like The Wire type. @Loublaze this will be right up your street mate.
I love slow. Thought the pacing in Better Call Saul was brilliant, for example.
Oh I like it...time will tell whether it's as good as some of he other Netflix shows I've seen. But it's gorgeous so that's more than enough for me.
All fair points.
Hope they do season 3, could be about the war Mouse was talking about.
Started season 4 of The Strain, good so far.
Haven't gotten around to it yet but will definitely check it out!
Just seen a couple of episodes of Knightfall. It’s surprisingly horrendous considering it’s HBO.
Its being shown on HBO where you live? It's a History channel production anyways. Terrible show.
Have you watched Chi-raq on Netflix?
No not seen that one. Any good?
Its pretty good actually. I think you'd like it. Directed by Spike Lee
Cool, I'll check it out then and let you know what I think.
It does.
Ah, makes sense. I had high hopes because I thought it was an HBO production.
Just finished sons of anarchy with the Mrs and we absolutely loved it. WentWer going to watch it but everyone raved about it so gave it a chance and it was wonderful.
Anyone got any ideas for another series? I love game of thrones and Vikings also mauve fan of 24 back in the day. We were considering something like black sails or James town?? Any ideas welcome.

The production values and the set designs are actually impressive, its the story that is very weak.
Is Power any good? Or The Killing? They're both 4 seasons each so don't want to start unless they're amazing...
Sure, but as you say, the story is crap and so is the acting. The part with that young guy who wanted to avenge his girlfriend was pure comedy.
I agree. The characters are weak and the acting is wooden. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.
the first 2 seasons are top top notch, really good.

Warning that I didn't like Chi-raq at all, but I'm also a pleb who has never read any classical Greek stuff that it is supposed to be based on.

Power is riveting!
What about the last two?
Anyone watching Modus? Missed the first two episodes- presidents been kidnapped?
Not so good.
Chapelle's new Netflix show is top notch.
Just started American Horror season 7.
Brutal start !
Brutal start !
You mean the two new specials or has he developed a new show for Netflix?
His stand up show that's on now.
I loved season 1, the only thing that didn't quite convince me was Neil Patrick Harris!
I've seen the first 4. Really enjoyed 1&2 and 3 was ok until the last episode. Hated 4.
Are the rest worth watching?
Anyone seen Mosaic?
Black Sails then Vikings
The Last Kingdom is very good.
While it's not for everyone, I really enjoyed Marco Polo. Benedict Wong is brilliant in it, it looks the absolute tits in 4K HDR and I love me some kung fu. Actually everyone but Marco Polo himself is very good in it. Plus season 2 has Michelle Yeo.
Just watched the first episode. Yeah it’s shit.
Shame it was cancelled. Season one was a bit of a mess but season two was really good, just nobody seemed to care after all the negative reviews and press around season one.
Yeah, I think it was costing them a fortune to make too. Pity it got cancelled yet crap like Luke Cage and Iron Fist live on purely because they have the Marvel name.
Yeah I like them, 1 and 2 were the best, the rest are better than 4 which was rubbish.
