Watched the whole Season of The Trip last night in one sitting, loved it. Cheers Rumpole.

Haha, yeah I pretty much did the same thing! Great show.

Justified (season 2) starts on Wednesday
Lights Out has been good

Anybody watch the show Mantracker on OLN? I've been getting into that show pretty hard lately, and Terry Grant (the Mantracker) is a fucking badass.

I'm actually sorta pissed off, because he's retiring and the network is trying to find a replacement. You can't fucking replace that guy. You just can't.

 

[The Butt]

Wow... I killed the thread I guess. Lol. But yeah, I can't get enough of that show lately.

The finale of SPARTACUS- Gods Of The Arena was awesome! Maybe the most epic thing I've seen...be it TV or movies.

Currently watching Season one of Twin Peaks, which is fucking amazing and twisted as fuck and I can't believe it was basically a mainstream show when it first aired, and also the latest & final season of Big Love, which is great but I'm getting impatient wanting some full on shit to happen to the main character pretty damn soon.

Lights Out has turned into a great show for FX
Justified is also great
Archer is fucking hilarious

 

[Wolves83]

usually I would watch 24 but since the show is finished, I don't really watch anything on primetime television these days.

Best show ever imo, but the first part of season 2 is probably where it is at its peak. After that it gets quite alot worse.

agreed with all of this except it's prob my 2nd favourite show after deadwood.

'justified' is really entertaining but i doubt i'll watch season 2 'til it's finished airing. watching season 1 of 'in treatment' atm which could potentially be good, dunno yet.

Just bought the first four seasons on DVD. Was expensive, but I am a happy fucker right now.

obsessed with Californication, started it like two weeks ago and a couple episodes away from being caught up. I grew up watching X-files with my dad so i've always loved David Duchovny, and this role is so amazing...great show great cast. I especially love the daughter, insightful as hell. only thing i don't like is the ridiculous amount of action he gets from doing nothing...not too realistic for me.

also i really enjoy no ordinary family...even though it's a tad cheesy it's wholesome and fun

another one that fits that bill is ghost adventures, probably one of the better paranormal shows out there

Californication was great in the first two seasons, but now personally it's unwatchable.

Im about to end Deadwood season 1, after I finish this what else is there to watch? I've watched Six Feet Under, Sopranos, The Wire, Breaking Bad(currently), and I think that's it and those are amazing shows. Talking about dramas really, not necessarily comedies or anything

Have you watched, for instance, Breaking Bad or The Wire? What about American comedies like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia or Arrested Development? I clearly can't comment on Australian television, I'm just trying to suggest some things that may have slipped by you.

Have'nt watched any of those,thanks I really need to give some of this stuff a chance.One of my alltime favourite shows is Seinfeld and i'd only be cheating myself if I don't give some of this stuff a go,thanks for the recs.

[JontRevolting]
