Not much about these days that I will watch, but Cold Case, Strike Back and Boardwalk Empire are the only things I switch the TV on for now a days.

loved the first episode of Boardwalk Empire, Boobies and incest (inferred) in the first 10 minutes. I love HBO.

 

I enjoyed the first series and just started watching the second.

Their are quite a few inaccuracies in the series. The main one Nucky Thompson. As it is based on the life of Nucky Johnson and not Thompson. Though they got it right with Lucky Luciano getting gonorrhea. He did this to avoid the Army draft

So many strong characters, Stephen Graham is a fine actor. I like the half-faced sniper and the impossibly square jawed FBI dude.

I haven't watched any of the idiot abroad this series (last series was great), I read 2 reviews which weren't great, but I will give it a chance.

I've worked my way through most of Ashes to Ashes series one and loving it.. To the point where I'm looking in Auto Trader for an Audi Quattro.

Luther....very hard hitting drama.

As always, the first series was better than the second though.


I'm not really into cookery shows, although I do like that tasty black bird, former model (Lorraine Pascale) doing her's on Monday evenings BBC2 at the moment

Just finished series 2 of Luther- just to be awkward I actually preferrred S2!! It was driving me nuts that I'd seen him somewhere else, then it clicked- another brit who starred in The Qire'.

Just found 3 more Tom Selleck 'Jesse Stone' episodes, not gripping top end drama I know but I've always liked Selleck's laconic style- I thought he was very good in 'Ike' as well.

I'll give Boardwalk Empire a go as well- HBO seems to be getting a lot of Brits across to play American characters (maybe they're cheaper, lol) but fresh faces often make for good entertainment as with Damien Lewis in Band of Brothers.
