Caught up on the first series of Top Boy as my lady hadn't seen it - can start the new one now.

Finally watched a few episodes of Ideal - a lot better than I was anticipating. Actually pretty good!

Oh, and new Boardwalk started last night.

AUTUMN!

Currently half-way through season 3.

Things I've watched lately roughly in order of radness:

The Wire
Breaking Bad
Black Mirror
Top Boy
Luthor (just atarted watching the 1st series- cab driver episode was rough!)
Phone Shop

Not great but find myself watching:
Firefly (a bit crap but somehow addictive)
New Tricks
Sherlock
Archer (Find the amount of repetative bitterness/shouting a bit stressful to watch!)
Boardwalk Empire (got upto 3rd series and it just seemed to be repeating itself a bit)
Under the dome
Sons of Anarchy
Afro Warrior

Sometimes it's just a bit too much like watching Eastenders or Jeremy Kyle: constant anger/shouting and arguing

family tree (christopher guest)

It has old people being funny, lineage searching, civil war reinactments, a main character that is a hobby ventriloquist and a lead with an irish accent but it's good :lol:

Yeah, been enjoying this after having it recommended the other week. Bit of a slow-burner, but hooks you in... always great to see Nina Conti on telly!

Apparently they're going to do a second series in Italy...

Watched the film for about the first 30 minutes and it was one of the most boring self-indlugent things I've ever seen, majorly disappointing.


Been getting into Sons of Anarchy recently, nearing the end of the first season and really enjoying it so far
