Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 4

by RealGunner Wed Aug 26, 2015 10:27 pm

FX has set their sights on a Sons Of Anarchy spin-off. The network is teaming with Sons Of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter to develop a spin-off of the long-running biker drama, TVWise has confirmed.

Few details are available at this time, but it is understood that the project will revolve around the Mayan biker gang, who appeared in several seasons of Sons Of Anarchy. It is not immediately clear if any of the actors who played members of said gang (such as Emilio Rivera who played Marcus Alvarez) will segue to the spin-off.

The proposed spin-off series is set up at FX Productions and Fox 21 Television Studios and would be devised and executive produced by Kurt Sutter. He is not expected to have much day-to-day involvement should the project land a series order, however, as he remains focused on his other FX series The Bastard Executioner. A search for a potential show runner is presently underway.

Would've liked them to do a spin off in a few years time based around one of Jax's sons.

SOA was easily one of my favourite shows of all time though.

Anyone watch Wentworth?

by Onyx Wed Aug 26, 2015 11:21 pm

If you're talking about the aussie female prison show. then yea quality show, tad better than Orange IMO. Definately worth the watch.

Extremely underated show since it's an Aussie show, which doesnt get as much exposure as US shows. Definately a darker version of OISTNB. both similar in terms of telling the story of an inmate via flashback.

Imagine that punch in the gut when Australian Ruby Rose chose to star in OITNB instead of this.

she was in the US trying to make a name for herself before Wentworth started :coffee:

Narcos reviews are in. TLDR: good, not great.

by RealGunner Thu Aug 27, 2015 9:28 pm

Seems like it's on par with the netflix shows like marco polo and bloodline.

@Mara

Wenthworth is really popular in UK for some reason lol. People always seem to talk about it. A lot more than OITNB.

considering I've never heard of them and I watch some utter trash this doesn't bode well

also didn't realize it was an escobar biopic or w/e, thought it was set in modern days

probably won't watch now

by RealGunner Thu Aug 27, 2015 10:51 pm

I really don't like drug lord type shows so won't watch

thats good to know. might be because it's alot more similar to OZ than it is OITNB

by LeVersacci Fri Aug 28, 2015 1:00 pm

Marco Polo was trash. Will give Narcos a try cause of goatro Pascal.

by LeVersacci Fri Aug 28, 2015 1:04 pm

Started watching 24 hours last night. Knew about it since I was like 14 but never got the chance to watch it till yesterday Laughing

The suspense is ridiculous ffs. Haven't felt this since Prison Break S1 & 2 lol. But 8 seasons? Does it become shit later on? Only watched 4 episodes so far lol

by McAgger Fri Aug 28, 2015 4:44 pm

It's great dude. I remember literally watching seasons 1 and 2 in 24 hours nonstop. So suspenseful.

Some seasons are better than others but I loved all of them.

by Onyx Sun Aug 30, 2015 11:09 pm

Narcos, a crime thriller about drugs, a guy with a moustache on the cover. What a shame. If only it was a goatee I would have watched. hmm

by RealGunner Mon Aug 31, 2015 4:46 pm

ffs can't wait.

Not sure if it's just that review saying it's not great, but it seems to be getting A LOT of hype.

Very highly rated by many on the internet

by McAgger Mon Aug 31, 2015 5:29 pm

Meh tried watching it. Turned it off after 5 minutes. You have to be really in the mood to get into it. It's not like GoT, TWD, House of Cards or Suits where the very first few scenes hook you in.

by LeVersacci Mon Aug 31, 2015 6:07 pm

Will watch this weekend. Main man Pascal will deliver

Spoiler:

by McAgger Mon Aug 31, 2015 8:15 pm

Don't understand why at teh beginning of every episode they keep doubting House when he makes a diagnosis. And then at the end of every episode they all admit House was right Laughing

by RealGunner Mon Aug 31, 2015 8:17 pm

Because he has ridiculous ideas that goes against every medical practice procedure and even ethics Laughing

He wanted to cure cancer by injecting someone with malaria once Laughing
