TV Programmes You'd Recommend To A Friend

Any fans of Mad Men here ? Just finished Season 3 - the best yet. No other programme evokes a time and place like this one.

Love Mad Men myself. Only gotten as far as the end of Season 2 yet though I hear it gets even better. It really is like a snaphot of the 60s. Oh and I wish I was married to January Jones.

Christina Hendricks does it for me

Wouldn't say no to her either to be fair, plus that Jane one from season 2.

Entourage and Curb Your Enthusiasm are my two favourite shows at the moment, absolutely brilliant both of them. Hate having to wait for the next episode or next season. Wish i was back at the start again with loads to watch.

Early Doors is running again at the minute on G.O.L.D.
What an absolute and utter delight of a show this is.

if you like the show, you really should check out the "Whale Whores" episode of South Park

I think the original thread was they had to be in production, but I'm uprating the Soprano's. I've started it again, and I'm enjoying it more second time around (I don't know whether not having to wait a week is making a difference).

**Longfordian** · 22/12/2009, 12:59 PM

I found the same, and with other series as well. You'd forget little things from week to week. Box set is really the way to go. A lot of the time I'll just wait until that comes out before I get into a programme.

Have to agree with you, watched it first time round on BBC and waited patiently for it to be released on DVD. Brilliantly written by Craig Cash who played "Joe" and Phil Mealy who played his friend and constant drinking partner "Duffy". Waited patiently for a third series but it never materialised.

Hardy Bucks.

Damages.

I'm nearly finished season two. Excellent show. Glenn Close is brilliant in it.

Couple of recommendations to watch out for this year from HBO. Boardwalk Empire, which looks like it's going to be a 1920's style Sopranos that will start around September/October. The Pacific, which starts on March 14th.

**passinginterest** · 01/03/2010, 1:39 PM

Second series of True Blood started Friday on FX, keeping up the excellence from the last season.

Really looking forward to this, if it's even half as well made as Band of Brothers it'll be brilliant!

Yeah read about that Boardwalk empire in a recent empire, looks very good. And that pacific doesn't look have bad either
