yeah 1st ep of preacher was pretty good

i'm aboard for the ride, especially since other than GoT there's nothing to watch now

you watch this final season of Banshee Tom? disgusting to see a GOAT show go out with a fizzle like that, heard they had a macdonalds meal budget for this season compared to the others which is why it sucked

by Luca Wed May 25, 2016 4:40 pm

Banshee went a very strange direction for its final season. Budget aside, the plot is not very Banshee like, reminds me of the final season of Dexter- although nothing is as bad.

Preacher was interesting, I liked it. Will continue to watch it.

I agree, kind of out of shows worth watching, re-watching Prison Break.

True Detective Unlikely to Return - Report

by McAgger Fri May 27, 2016 8:44 am

Anybody here watch Bloodline?

Saw the pilot. Doesn't seem like anything great but wasn't too bad.

by McLewis Fri May 27, 2016 10:12 am

I actually enjoyed Bloodline quite a bit. Very solid performances from Ben Mendelsohn and Kyle Chandler in the lead roles.

Looking forward to season 2.

Probably for the best. The experiment that was season 2 probably shouldn't be repeated.

by El Gunner Fri May 27, 2016 11:03 am

Yea not surprised.
Hope Nic Pic tries his hand at another crime series though which is not an anthology.

Haven't psyched myself up to do it from what you've told me, Banshee was so amazing and the last season could've been the best with the main characters going at it.

Someone's got to be the pleb in society, after all.

I personally only watched Supergirl and Lucifer from that list. Enjoyed both tbh.

by M99 Sun Jun 05, 2016 8:04 pm

Watched the Preacher pilot. Very very different from the comics. Was intriguing and Cassidy was goddamn perfect. I hope that a certain backstory is not changed too much, other than that I am in for the ride.

BarrileteCosmico wrote:Just finished reading Preacher... how the hell are AMC going to turn this into a TV show? They're not subscription based and edited out the F*** whenever Breaking Bad used it, but there's hardly a page without a "F***", and that's not even counting the violence, sex, outright blasphemy, etc. Interested to see how that will play out.

Yeah the show is nowhere near as balls to the walls as the comic was Laughing

by RealGunner Sun Jun 05, 2016 8:52 pm

Don't think even HBO can pull it off without upsetting half the population

by MaraVilla Mon Jun 06, 2016 7:10 am

loving Preacher sofar. first 2 episode have been ace.

Cassidy :bow:

by RealGunner Mon Jun 06, 2016 5:17 pm

2nd episode of preacher was pretty good again.

Some of it is so crazy lol. Can't believe I didn't recognise Cassidy is Ruddy from Misfits ffs

Did you read the Preacher comics RG hmm

by RealGunner Mon Jun 06, 2016 5:47 pm

Nah, just heard about it from those who have read it.

by El Gunner Tue Jun 07, 2016 10:23 am

Based on the 2010 Australian movie by David Michod of the same name.

by RealGunner Tue Jun 07, 2016 1:03 pm

Looks like it has potential

to get cancelled after 6 episodes

by Onyx Fri Jun 10, 2016 6:27 pm

Season premiere in 2 weeks. :bow:

On after Smackdown on the USA network. Proud

by Onyx Fri Jun 10, 2016 9:20 pm

Anybody watch Wayward Pines? hmm

by MJ Tue Jun 14, 2016 12:38 pm

Any great, finished tv shows out there (that, obviously, didn't get canceled) that anyone wants to recommend?

I've watched the Sopranos, the Wire, Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Mad Men, Lost, Californication, the Newsroom among other highly critically acclaimed shows.

Currently watching Supernatural, Walking Dead, House of Cards.

Was thinking of watching Oz, the Shield, West Wing, or starting Game of Thrones or Peaky Blinders but I want something that's done. Any suggestions?

I gave it a shot because I found the premise interesting but it's your typical shitty network show. Not even the good kind of shitty like The Event and Flashforward.

What are you into? What are your favorite shows. If we know what you like we can probably give you better recommendations.
