      I thought last nights Fargo was a bit slow, but with a great ending.

      Two more to go, and hopefully they'll be crackers.

      I expected a bit more from yesterdays GoT episode. Anyone else feels that way, or am i placing the bar too high?

      I think it seemed kind of rushed in parts to me. Still thoroughly enjoyed it though.

      Loving this series.
      Although I should know better at this stage then to have favourites.

      That was the first in a long time where it hasn't jumped around frantically between storylines.
      Nice to change pace for the odd focused episode.

      I enjoyed it.

      Don't think there's been an episode since "Blackwater", back in the 2nd season, that has focused entirely on a battle. You could definitely tell that was the most expensive episode they've made so far, with all that CGI. Thought it was very good and looking forward to seeing what they include next week.

      It was a great episode, i just felt it didnt do justice to the book, it looked like they HAD to put all the story into 1 episode. I rather they had divided it in 2 episodes. Im still unclear if they are going to include Baratheon in that story arch, but it looks like they wont. Major difference with the books if they dont, but then again, books have always differed from the series, and the series are GREAT

      I finally got round to watching the latest episode of GoT, and I have to say it was worth the wait.
      Brilliant stuff, even if the ending was a bit lame compared to the rest of the episode, but in fairness I think I'm being a bit picky there.

      Fargo left me feeling a bit unfulfilled if that's the right word to describe what I thought.

      A very good series that just limped to a conclusion.
      It may have been better for it to have been a couple of episodes shorter.

      Having seen the movie it did seem to be over lengthy, haven't seen the concluding episodes.

      Anyone been watching Penny Dreadful on Sky Atlantic? The plot is a bit messy but there are some good characters and Eva Green plays possibly the most captivating role I have ever seen as the female lead

      Prepared to be amazed, many of my mates have watched it and love it, me personally chose to give suits a go instead.

      Suits is amazing and i recommend anyone who enjoys witty drama, to give suits a go, a law orientated program with a good amount of banter and dramatic twists. Love it.

      Craig Bellamy has turned down the chance to appear on the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing because he wants to be taken seriously in his bid to become a manager.

      Anybody see the series "Vikings" that has been on TV? Might just be personal preference but it trumps GoT and Sons of Anarchy for me. Such a brilliant piece of television.

      Just finished season 7 of The X-files, really good season of TV. Hungry being the stand out episode for me.  Only seasons 1 & 3 were better.

      What is the deal with GoT? Attempted to watch the very 1st episode twice now (sober & pissed) and still couldn't get into it.
      I'm a bit pedantic like that but if the 1st episode doesn't grab me I usually don't bother.

      In saying that, thought the first few episode of Breaking Bad were painfully slow....and then....wow!

      I was somewhat surprised to see that Heroes is being relaunched next year. Thought they were being a bit abrupt in yanking it in the first place!

      Season 3 of Veep started last night and it is as hilarious as ever and Julia Loius Dreyfuss is excellent as the hapless Selina.

      Anyone else a fan?

      Love Veep
      Once you realize that it will never be The Thick of It and just get balls deep in it then it's a great show.
      Dreyfus is amazing.

      She is. Role of a lifetime for her.

      I love The Thick of It Lester but I actually think I love Veep more which I know may sound strange.
