Got Goliath.. should I get this too?[/QUOTE]
It has a definite Breaking Bad vibe -- a guy who runs a crime scene cleaning business is forced to work for a crime lord, played by the guy who was...
I really liked the way this one played out.
It's been a long time since something made me audibly gasp, but the end of the second episode did that to me.[/QUOTE]

It's been a long time since something made me audibly gasp, but the end of the second episode did that to me.
I watched the 8-episode Amazon series Goliath, starring Billy Bob Thornton, William Hurt, Maria Bello and many more. It's very Grisham-esque, and Thornton is terrific in it as an alcoholic lawyer who...
The Americans will get two more seasons and finish in 2018. Next season will be 13 episodes and the final season will have 10.
We're getting close to the end of season 4. They're not nice people, but they aren't heartless, either, as you'll see in S4.
"The Returned" on Sundance -- an awesomely creepy French series.
Anyone watching season 3 of Luther?
Recently watched a three-episode series called Bletchley Circle from PBS. It's about four former WWII code breakers (all women) who band together to hunt down a serial killer.
Great series. Matt Frewer (Trashcan Man) shows up about halfway in. Tatiana Maslany is amazing -- she creates five, six, seven (...) distinct characters. She won the Critics' Choice Award last night.

I started the first episode of Hunted and turned it off partway through. I think Melissa George is a terrible actress.
Anyone watching Banshee? Brutal, fascinating series -- but I hardly ever hear anyone talking about it.
I'm watching Justified (current season) and the first season of Borgen, the Danish political series.
I went through The Wire recently -- great characters. Omar (there was a subtle reference to him on How I Met Your Mother this week), Bubbles, Stringer Bell (who I didn't know was British until I saw...
Hang on -- the series gets even better as you go along.
I'm just finishing up a marathon of THE SHIELD. I've watched all seven seasons over the past few weeks. If you've never seen this show, I...
