It's still running! I recently finished rewatching The Sopranos(amazing show) but Glee's butchering of Don't Stop Believin' completely ruins the ending for me now:mad:

Next up The Sopranos and The Wire...
Just finished watching the 3rd season of Boardwalk Empire , Probably the best of the lot to be honest. Gyp Rosetti was a great character to introduce :D
Nothing like a Bohs fan to make a show!
I see what you did there ;)Quote:

The sequel to The Pillars of the earth "World without end" start on C4 next Saturday at 9pm Pillars of the earth was good so hope this is as good

Not sure if it's been mentioned on the thread yet, but I've really been enjoying Don't Trust The Bitch In Apartment 23
Got a few boxsets for Christmas so been slowly making my way through them. Sons of Anarchy is proving better than expected. It's essentially Sopranos based on a Biker gang rather than the Mafia. Watching season 3 at the minute and they've had to make a trip to Ireland. They've already got in a scrap with the PSNI, and are currently running amok in Donegal.:D
So basically it's the Tallaght ultras on tour then :-)Quote:

Thankfully they redeem themselves in season 4 which is currently be screened on RTE2 at 12 midnight on Thursdays (think the next episode is the 3rd only discovered it when flicking channels after Breaking bad on TG4 last week)Quote:

Watched The Newsroom over christmas. Enjoyed it, and would recommend it. I'm generally a fan of Sorkin though.
Probably way behind the curve, but half way through season 2 of Hell on Wheels, after just finishing season 1. Pretty good fair too.
Really struggling with season 3 of Breaking Bad tbh. I assume it's worth persisting with, but it is a bit of struggle half way through S3.
Bearing in mind that they were aiming for irish sounding accents understandable to a wide american audience, it was clear that they couldn't go for authentic ulster accents from the various places depicted. Sadly, most of the "trip" was still filmed in America, they sent a small crew over and recruited a lot of local bikers to act as doubles to film the bike rides/local scenery. Not sure if many(or any) of the cast actually visited here!Quote:

Started re-watching Seinfeld from the Pilot onwards last night. Glorious.
I think there were a few of them here, my sister lives in Belfast and said one of her friends were telling her he met Charlie Hunnam in a bar round the time of filming season 3.(He is English(Newcastle I think) so probably was much hassle for him )Quote:

I could never watch it once I found out he was a Scientologist.
Jason Lee? No....you asshat. You just ruined a good show for me. I quite liked him too, thought he was a very good actor. Now he's just a t*at.Quote:

I used to have something for Zhanna Friske, then last year found out - well, saw her in fact coming out of planet hq in Taganka - she was one of them too, just killed the passion.
Yip. It's amazing what it does to ya. Unsurprisingly I've let Travolta off for Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty.Quote:

I'm midway through the third season. I really enjoyed it after the second or third episode of Season 1, once the pace started to pick up but I find that it's dragging along now with no sign of any end in sight. Some of the characters seem to have no potential to develop any further. Ian McShane was superb! As far from Lovejoy as it's possible to get!
Pretty accurate. The more I think about it the further down the list it goes. Found myself watching it just to get it finished with from midway though season 2. Thought Ian McShane was excellent and Timothy Olyphant too. If you like his character you should check out "Justified" where he plays a very similar character except in modern times, it far better IMO and also has Boyd Crowder excellently played by Walton Goggins(who you will know as Shane Vendrell if you have watched "The Shield)Quote:

Second episode was weaker, though not bad at all.
Season 3 is one of the greatest and without doubt, funniest things I've ever seen. The missions in space episodes are laugh-a-minute and well worth checking out.
There's too many private jokes built up now over the first seasons that you wouldn't really appreciate it if you were to jump in (Think Arrested Development).
Sploosh!
Do stick with it. The ending to Season 3 is a humdinger. I've just finished Season 4 and it's also amazing. The only reaction is "Wow".Quote:

I ploughed through it all in about two weeks with Netflix. Can't wait for the second half of season 5.

Also Season 4 of Archer started as well... It's pretty good so far.
One of the funiest show of the last 10 years, a lot of the stuff in shows like 30 rock and Modern Family are from it. Must see if I can download it again Tobais & Gob are the bestQuote:
