Sounds cool I will look out for this.Flex wrote:Just started the Netflix remake of House of Cards. Fantastic cast, anchored by Kevin Spacey at his sleazy best, and a great sense of place. Writing is a bit hot and cold, but a couple episodes in and it all compelling (if in a somewhat cotton candy way).

Re: Currently watching.
Grew up as a DC/Marvel geek, and although some of the other tv series have based on the "superheroes" have been somewhat off the real cartoon scripts, I've enjoyed them all, some way or another. This one, comes off as a good one. Enoy it. Downloaded the whole first season (so far), and saw the first seven episodes last week.Flex wrote:-Arrow: Actually not terrible. Maybe it helps that I don't really have in depth knowledge of the Green Arrow mythos, so the liberties the show takes don't raise a red flag for me.

I think it helps that it quickly found its tone as a superhero procedural with soap opera elements. It may not ever be top shelf television, but its a good workhorse drama.esmark wrote:Grew up as a DC/Marvel geek, and although some of the other tv series have based on the "superheroes" have been somewhat off the real cartoon scripts, I've enjoyed them all, some way or another.

Looking forward to the 2nd episode of the final series of Being Human tonight. My daughter and I thought it was very funny last week.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: Currently watching.
The Shield is on Hulu Plus now, so I'm getting deep into the first season.
It's good, but not GREAT thus far. Hoping it's like other Mazzara/Sutter shows where the writing picks up the longer it goes on.

Utopia. Oh my, for all the possible stereotypical conspiracy-thriller tropes, this was excellent.

It was my fave show at the time, had a similar edge-of-seat aspect that BB has now.modskin wrote:The Shield is on Hulu Plus now, so I'm getting deep into the first season.

Re: Currently watching.
Just watched the first four seasons of "Game of Thrones" back to back. Great stuff and two more are being made.
Season 9 of 24 is fun with Chloe O'Brian now looking like a goth/emo kid.
Just started "Penny Dreadful" two eps in and it's cool so far.
