    It's between seasons in Ireland at the moment. I think you'll see season 2 some time next year.

    You can get season 2 in region 1 encoding if you've a regionless player. I'm sure that's what you meant.

    On the basis that there will be no follow up questions on this, yes.

    Very different. Watched the first series of the Shield & very in your face. The Wire by comparison slow & methodical.

    JUst finishing the box set of Season 4 of the Wire. I think it is the best season so far. Have Season 5 lined up ready and waiting.

    I was thinking of getting The Corner on DVD next. Has anyone seen it and what did they think of it.

    Just watched the pilot episode of the shield online. Good show but wasn't overly impressed. Does it get better?

    Finished season 3 of Battlestar Galacitia last night. Another great season, season 4 is on its way to me along with Season 1 of The Sheild. Battlestar is the best TV show after The Wire, Oz and Sopranos IMO.

    I watched the first series months ago & I haven't continued yet. Lot of shaky camera stuff. That said there were 7 series so can't be too bad.

    A programme I'm splitting my sides at atm is Outnumbered with Hugh Dennis, the kids in it are soo funny (They have by far the best lines) and they make a brilliant comedy of a clichéd topic (Dysfunctional family) it's on BBC1 at 10 past 9 in the evenings and it's well worth a look

    I posted in the first post about The US Office, now in seson 5 its still capable of perfect comedy. The youtube clip is the opening scene from episode 13. I challenge anybody to find anything funnier on TV

    I agree after so many episodes the quality is top notch.

    Got "The thick of it" and "The Corner" for recent birthday presents.

    The Thick of it is Armando Iannucci's take on the behind the scences going-on in politics very good kinda like mixing the office and yes minister.

    The corner was The Wire's writter David Simon's next move after Homcide: Life on the streets and is what gave him and Robert F. Colesberry the idea for the Wire. Only watched one episode so far will let you know how it plays out

    The corner is very depressing Neish. Good to see members of the Wire cast playing junkies though - especially Freamon! I'm reading the book as well at the moment and it's worth checking out. 628 pages so it's going to keep me busy!

    The Thick of it is brilliantly funny

    I near choked with laughter watching it...some very creative swearing and insults...excellent!
