Better Call Saul

Watched the first episode last night... Bit slow at first but picked up at the end, think it will be a cracking series. Anyone else see it?

Seen the first two so far, agree the first was a bit crap for the vast majority of it but the second is much better, he starts to really turn into The cunning little twat he was in breaking bad, looking forward to seeing the third one tonight!

Can tell it's by the same people who did Breaking Bad, showing how and why they become who they do. Got the 3rd episode to watch tonight and definitely looking forward to the rest of the series.

I'm up to series 3 of breaking bad, episode 5 or 6 (the fly?) and have got a bit bored now, is it worth persevering?

Just watched Fargo again, Billy bob Thornton is class

Breaking Bad is well worth persevering with yes. Fargo is also very good, I believe they're making another series set elsewhere.

Having watched about 25 episodes in a couple of weeks I think it was time for a break. Will pick it up again now though.

Hang in there with breaking bad. It does get a bit slow in the middle but it picks up again. Is Fargo just 1 series? Missed a few half way through so stopped watching

The fly one nearly made me stop watching it but glad I didn't well worth sticking with

Did you know there was some sort of writers strike and that was how they ended up with that episode

monkeehanger · **Posted:** Wed Feb 18, 2015 12:52 am

A bit slow to start with, but the second and third episodes leave you wanting more - got the makings of being as good as Baking Bad for sure.

Seasons 4 and 5 of Breaking Bad are quality and worth waiting for.

Doesnt BCS come before BB though?

BCS is a prequal to BB, so you'd need to know all about BB before you watch BCS or the characters and in jokes may not make sense.

Also Better Call Saul could potentially run for 3 - 4 years itself if it is popular enough. This season will probably run for between 12 - 16 weeks. So you could probably watch breaking bad in that time. Then catch up with all of Better Call Saul.

Good plan

Agree better call Saul is pretty good! I'm actually waiting a week between each episode now as well I think I finished breaking bad in about 2 weeks and didn't see an ounce of daylight. I much prefer these series/boxset shows now as apposed to films.

Yubep · **Joined:** Wed Jan 31, 2007 6:35 pm **Posts:** 25266

I am exactly the same kitch I rarely watch a film I prefer to commit to a show like the shield or sons of anarchy especially knowing I have 7 seasons to watch.

I used to set my alarm for 5am n watch 2 breaking bads before work.

Sons of anarchy was brilliant, being made to watch orange is the new black at the minute too, its living up to the hype to be fair to it

I've just started watching better call Sol.

An episode comes out every time a vacancy is filled in Football Management and the appointment is not a black man.

The Sopranos still reigns supreme. Breaking Bad was good but didn't get close enough to challenge it properly. Sons of Anarchy is ridiculous but you have to love any series in which a motorbike gang lead by the bloke out of Beauty and the Beast that has a member who is a fat Elvis impersonator defeat white supremacists who are in league with the CIA.

MutleyRules · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2015 12:15 am

For me I'd say 'Band Of Brothers'....the first time I watched it I was totally gripped and just had to watch the next episode....and that goes for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th times I've watched it!!!!

But 'The Pacific' I think I only watched the one or maybes 2 episodes and didn't think much of it....I'll have to give it another go!!!!

MutleyRules · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2015 12:19 am

The Sporanos I really enjoyed but got to really really hate all members of the main Soprano family....infact I despised them!!!! rakxe

Tried watching it again a few times but I just can't due to my dislike of them!!!!

The Wire....loved it....more some of the stories than others though....some I thought quite boring!!!! confised

Chesssington · **Joined:** Fri Oct 31, 2014 6:36 pm **Posts:** 900

Sons of Anarchy has 79 episodes

Will give it go mind.

I really enjoyed Banshee, the Chinese cross dresser is probably my favourite ever character clappp

Watched the 3rd BCS last night really enjoying it.

I love banshee too chess. Have you watched any of season 3 yet? Probably the most violent so far.

Banshee is sooooo under-rated and little-known right now, but I'd say it's the best TV show I've ever seen. So much happens in each episode that each one would stand up as a fillum in it's own right.

Each season has got better than the last, which is saying something because season 1 was great.

I'm a huge fan of Breaking Bad, Band of Brothers, 24, Spooks, Dexter (bar the last season) but Banshee tops the lot. More sex and violence than a Friday night on Church Street circa 2001.

A few lads at work have mentioned a series called Kingdom, about a family that run a MMA gym, and they all gave it good reviews, might try that one next after I've watched the latest season of Boardwalk Empire

Watched the first episode of Breaking Bad last night. Probably would have watched 4 or 5 if I didnt fall asleep. Enjoyed it.

Banshee

Its the biggest pile of shite ive ever watched its so bad I had to watch it

A massive town in America that has only 4 police officers and one of them is a imposter who turns himself into a one man A team its laughable and to be fair the real reason I watched it was for his ex missus and the gangster blokes niece Lordy Lordy

Game of thrones has now started and if you don't watch that or dislike it you are a Nufter FACT

Hartleblue · **Posted:** Tue Apr 14, 2015 8:57 am

Just started on The Walking Dead season 4. Its addictive! Watched the first 3 seasons in two weeks and I find I can,t just watch one episode I have to watch the next one to see what happens! I just hope they keep making it for ever.

One question!... I still haven,t sussed out where the Virus? came from to make people into Zombies, do you find out later in the series?

Going to watch another episode or 2 now

P.S. Better call Saul is good too!

Tony Soprano's family annoy me too, they just made the kids go through phases to fill in gaps. His mother though, awful!!!

Banshee's good, and it's set in a small town. Off the radar that's how he gets away with it. I don't watch something for realism anyway I watch stuff to be entertained. To you think game of thrones is a historical piece?

Proctors niece is sound like and you regularly see her naked which would make it watchable even if it was shit.

Set in a small town well they have a fooking massive college there for a small town, there is realism and there is plain silliness which it is and if you haven't watched all the latest series it takes it to a whole new level
