Another cop drama - RTE 2 have it on late on Thursday night iirc. Michael Imperi is one of the main characters (Christopher from the Soprano's). Wiki is telling me it wasn't renewed by ABC.

I think you lads would all like Celebrity Salon.....tonight Georgia Salpa and Rosanna Davidson were giving breast massages........

**Dodge** · 08/06/2011, 11:18 PM

Was looking forward to Detroit 187 but another standard cop show. Stopped watching once it became clear it was going to be cancelled

So now all my hopes for a GREAT tv show rest with the upcoming HBO show Luck. Everything about it speaks to
Me

The breasts they were massaging weren't exactly the stuff of fantasy. It's decent trash tv though.

Still waiting to start Season 2 myself, but did Treme not do it for you? "Luck" looks interesting, and I guess that explains Hoffman doing the ads for Sky Atlantic.

btw If I caught the ad right, RTE2 doing another double bill of Blue Bloods next week. Not sure that shows great confidence in it, trying to rattle them off quickly!

Recently finished the 1st season of V (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1307824/), good sci-fi show but its a bit like a poor man's Battlestar Galactica(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0407362/)

Deadwood is excellent. HBO series; don't know if it's been mentioned before in this thread. Really authentic (I'm guessing) in realistic details and language.

Anyone watch the scheme on bbc the other night ?

It was a fly-on-the-wall about life in a Killie Housing Estate.

Probably a bit harsh on it as it wasn't The Wire. Just found it lacking a bit of pace. Seems like forever between seasons too.

Maybe, but they know they're playing catch up with Sky too.

Its been renewed in the US...

This was on bbc scotland ages ago and on the net - it ran to about episode 3 and then things got a bit hairy after that, I think one of the people on the show was involved in murder/drugs or something that involved breaking the law so the last two episodes werent aired??? So I wonder what new cleaned up version the bbc are showing now?
But its certainly bleak!

Anyone watching Community?

Great Sitcom from the states about a community college.
Dont think anyone over here is showing it but well worth finding online.

Yeah, I watch it, think I know about two other people who have heard of it
the two paintball episodes (well, one stand alone, one two-part episode) are some of the funniest TV I've seen in years

**Dodge** · 17/06/2011, 11:08 AM

TV3 definitely showed it for a bit. Dunno if they still are.

Terrific show, and agree on the paintball epsiodes

**BonnieShels** · 17/06/2011, 12:23 PM

Is that the show with Chevy Chase?

I've started season 2, and admit it's been slow so far. But The Wire could actually be like that. And I'm a bit disappointed it's only 11 episodes - thought they'd go for a few more at least.

that's the one, helped reignite his career
he turns a bit nasty as the second season progresses

yeah but you got the sense with The Wire that even in the slower bits, literally canything could happen at aany moment to take you in a new direction

Treme doesn't really have the same effect.

Like I said, its harsh to compare the two

**Neish** · 18/06/2011, 10:38 PM

Anyone seen Justified http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489428/

It popped up in my recommendations in Amazon looks decent, just wondering if anyone has seen it and whats the verdict?
