Kitchandro Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 Can't believe Big Bang theory is getting in some people's lists, absolutely terrible show. Agreed. My 5: 1. The Simpsons 2. Friends 3. Blackadder 4. Family Guy 5. The Inbetweeners I'd probably put Match of The Day on if Leicester were on it!

Finnegan Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 Stop the presses, I've gone and missed out a drama I would say ranks - for me - only vaguely below the Wire and comfortably above Boardwalk and Breaking Bad. Troooooels!
Guest MattP Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 This thread is going to end up costing me a fortune on Amazon when I get paid this month.

Guest Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 That wooly jumper really screams action packed blockbuster. Just started watching it myself so hoping the jumpers are a tactical diversion to maintain it's cult coolness
Finnegan Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 Never, ever insult Sarah Lund's jumper. She'll have ya. Its actually a cult joke amongst fans.
Webbo Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 Never, ever insult Sarah Lund's jumper. She'll have ya. Its actually a cult joke amongst fans. I've just looked and it's on Lovefilm so I might give it a go.

Finnegan Posted 26 June 2013 Posted 26 June 2013 I've just looked and it's on Lovefilm so I might give it a go. If you like crime dramas and have no issue with subtitles there are few better. Danish drama does have it's own distinct style but it is fairly similar and fairly accessible to British audiences. If you've enjoyed things like Messiah, Waking the Dead, Vice etc you'll like it.

Borgen 4. Spooks 5. Parks & Recreation Newsroom is serverly underated but then again there is only 1 season, can't wait for season 2. Parks and Rec is quality, Ron Swanson is truly awesome.

MikeyT Posted 27 June 2013 Posted 27 June 2013 Top 5 USA Dexter Prison Break Lost True Blood Married With Children will do UK later.... I have watched True Blood since it first started and really like it, but am I the only one that finds the acting pretty poor?
MooseBreath Posted 27 June 2013 Posted 27 June 2013 Since we're allowed revisions I'd like to enter Eurotrash into my list in 3rd place. Superb pre-internet education.
rico Posted 27 June 2013 Posted 27 June 2013 I have watched True Blood since it first started and really like it, but am I the only one that finds the acting pretty poor? yeah,wasn't really into the fairy story either but Russell Edgington was superb character
goose2010 Posted 27 June 2013 Posted 27 June 2013 I have watched True Blood since it first started and really like it, but am I the only one that finds the acting pretty poor? The acting is terrible in True blood bar one or two i lost interest after about 2 and a half series.
Webbo Posted 29 June 2013 Posted 29 June 2013 RE; The Killing, I've just looked and it's on Lovefilm so I might give it a go. Watched the first 6 episodes and now it seems that LOvefilm have stopped showing it Anyone know anywhere online that's showing series 1?
Finnegan Posted 29 June 2013 Posted 29 June 2013 I once tried downloading it but the subtitles were terrible. You could try Netflix. Failing that try eBay, play.com or Amazon and see about buying it cheap? Well worth it.
