Greys Anatomy is not bad its a drama about real life with real issues.

I'd skip it, and maybe try the Underbelly series from Australia. I got turned on to it a year ago, it's like the Sopranos meets the Wire -

Im on season 5 , the final season will start next month

great fucking show, drinking , smoking and whores

one thing thou i dont like is they have alot of sexual angles with don drapers daughter , first they had her say sex was when a man pees inside a woman, then later they had her masterbating , then had her looking at her new mother in law nude ass in bed, they her walking into sterling getting a blowjob from the drapers wifes french mother

am i wrong her?

this seems like tad much to not be pedo type material from the writers and AMC

Old thread, watched 4 seasons of it, enjoy it a lot, still have a season or so to catch up on.Banshee is my number one TV show though, nothing on TV or in the movies can touch it for entertainment.

Mad men is for chicks. Seriously the back n forth banter in that show is hard to take serious

Sterling is fucking awesome , draper too, but man that dudes gets rattled very easy and quickly when not in his element , after watching this show i realized i dont drink enough, started drinking during work hours (on the Down low) neats of course.

banshee.... an HBO show? on netflix or hulu? I keep hearing about it

BB · « **Reply #17 on:** March 17, 2015, 05:49:43 PM »

I'm going to revise my opinion on this. It's a terrific show, if you can devote a lot of time to it. I watched it before sporadically, and couldn't get into it. Later, I had the flu, and watched it as a marathon. What a difference that made.

It's like a male soap opera, lots of interlocking plots that won't come together unless you watch them in sequence and with a critical eye.

Cinemax. It's an enjoyable show. Very good, not great. It's like a violent comic book come to life.

Watch banshee on cinemax

I disagree , it is a great show, for pure entertainment there hasn't been anything better ever on a minute to minute basis for action\entertainment crammed in, and I've seen pretty much everything of merit in the TV and movie universe.When word of mouth spreads it will be like breaking bad was a couple of years ago when word finally got round.The final episode the other day put to shame every movie I've ever seen for craziness, violence, edge of seat stuff put in to an hour or so, maybe apart from Rambo 4.Again just my opinion.

I've not seen MM, but you like enough of the stuff I also like, so:

Happy Valley (BBC)
Foyle's War (BBC - Took a season to get into it, now I'm really enjoying it)
Spiral (BBC, in French. 1st season was good.)
Luther (BBC - perennially pissed off detective, some neat stuff)
Battlestar Galactica (Watch it again - you know you want to!)

Very disappointed with Luther, apart from Idris Elba I though the show was shit, they were lucky to get him for the part.
