I have heard of some but never watched most of them. Unlike the late 90s for example when I loved the X Files and regularly tuned in, along with Friends.

I want to watch the original Dallas again. Not on torrents that I could find, way too old. Lost forever 1 Quote Link to comment

ciobha Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 It's being going for years and I never bothered with it until about 6 weeks ago, now I am absolutely hooked on NCIS. Shows here on a variety of channels so there are about 5 or 6 episodes showing every day. Only problem is the series are all over the place - might be watching series 3 on one channel at 7 o'clock, then on another channel series 12 is showing at 8 o'clock, so I am a bit all over the place. Wouldn't mind trying to download it from the start and get a proper view from the beginning. Quote Link to comment

For seasons 3 and 4 I am watching 2 episodes a night as it is that good. Yes, I watched season 4 in 2 nights and that was too much. I can hardly remember that season. 2 episodes per night is ideal, imo. 18 hours ago, sydneyjohn57 said: It was produced by Canal+ the same company that had a hand in producing Zero Zero Zero. I love the Canal+ intro. 18 hours ago, Quinn said: Great series but dissapointed with the finale - Season 5. I fell in love with Nadia the first season. 13 hours ago, BigTel said: of Season 1 You're in for a treat. Season 5 is partly set in Cambodia. Re: Billions. I really tried with this one, but got bored. Its all about money ( like zerozerozero isn't). 1 Quote Link to comment

That's exactly what I have been doing with "ZeroZeroZero" it's a perfect combination I am on the final two episodes for this evening, it's been really good getting fully engrossed in the story as it unfolds. . 1 Quote Link to comment
Quinn Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Enjoyed Zero, bored with Billions, The Bureau - great - also Spiral, Braquo. both outstanding french cop series. Just watched The Spy with Sacha Baron Cohen - excellent. 4 Blocks - Arab crime in Berlin - very good. Fauda - Palestine - Israeli conflict. Just downloaded 2 seasons HaMidrasha - Israeli secret service thriller. I've no cultural or political leanings to any of these - just like them because much better (IMHO) than anything thrown up by Brit or USA TV. A few exceptions obviously - 'Berlin Station' - pulled after 3 seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment
Quinn Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Further more - 'Money Heist' - La Casa De Capel - great but dragging it's heels by season 4 - however another 'money-steal' series I watched was 'The Great Heist' season 1. Both of these Spanish ! Enjoyed '4 Seasons Havana' - one long 3 short movies about a Cuban cop. Not giving anything away except - at the end of the day him and his chums used to wind down - drinking rum and listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival. !!! Quote Link to comment
sydneyjohn57 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 2 hours ago, Quinn said: also Spiral, I don't have any accounts with pay per view ( Netflix etc) so am relying on free to air stuff. Here in Australia there is a multicultural multilingual public broadcaster SBS which has about 11,000 hours of shows and movies and just so happen to have 7 seasons of Spiral which are available for about 12 months so I'll put that on my ever increasing to watch list.

The ending opened up for another season. She ordered another batch. Great show, but faded a bit towards the end, imo. The young blonde american kid, the son, is an excellent actor. The Italian grandson wasn't a very good actor, imo. On 8/31/2020 at 6:09 AM, Quinn said: 'Berlin Station' - pulled after 3 seasons. I tried this one but got bored. Was watching Homeland at the time, the season set in Germany/Berlin, so it became too much German. That said, Deutschland '83 and '86 are very good. '89 is in the making.( Spoiler alert. Might be about the Wall). If you really want to dig into Germans, Babylon Berlin was pretty good. Set in the Weimar republic era. Seedy, depraved and brutal but very good stylistic production. Bryan Ferry is on stage in one episode entertaining the nazis. 1 Quote Link to comment

I agree with you on all counts here, I noticed the stiff neck gesture in the last scene by the Sister hinting at the Huntingtons disease catching up to Her too. Quote Link to comment

I'm watching an old TV series (2008) called 'The Looming Tower' A look at how the rivalry between the CIA and FBI inadvertently set the stage for the tragedy of 9/11 and the war in Afghanistan. Quite good. 1 Quote Link to comment

Luckily enough Quinn I managed to snaffle seasons 3 & 4 last night along with the SRT files in English so good to go for a while perfect timing as I have got into watching two episodes per evening therefore tonight I can now finish of with episode 10 from season 2 and watch the first episode then of season 3, that's my evenings viewing sorted. 3 Quote Link to comment

sydneyjohn57 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I've just finished watching the 1st season of Stan Lee's Lucky Man. Found it quite enjoyable. Is currently on SBS on Demand for free here in Australia or for those with a VPN 1 Quote Link to comment
