Latest series of Line of Duty is fucking deadly.

[Emphyrio]

Most recent ep was top notch.

Aye stellar episode. And the cliffhanger for next week. Arghhhh

[Emphyrio]

One of the few shows I'm prepared to suffer waiting week to week. It's tough though.

Have taken a look at Guillermo Del Toro's The Strain on Star/D+. Not too shabby at all - Nosferatu type vamps, a shadowy vamp cabal with an SS Nazi vamp, vampirism as host disease - all good stuff. Some of the acting is a bit stagey but overall quite good.

I read the first book in the series and watched an episode or two of the first season, wasn't impressed by either - though there were some good ideas in the book alright.

I watched the first season. Had lots of promise and good in parts but up ultimately went a bit silly. Now the episode in season 1 where there they did the back story in world war 2 was outstanding. So well done.

The Strain had so much potential but I gave up after The Master was revealed fully for the first time, fuckin pathetic Dealz version of Nosferatu was the end of it for me.

Del Toro used the the same 'type' of vampires with the long snake in the throat thingys in the second Blade movie as well.

I reckon he pitched The Strain at the time and they said "Nahhh! But..."

[Carnage]

From what I gather, the Strain books were based on rejected scripts going back a while, and it was was only when he'd made his name that he adapted them as novels (with a co-author, if memory serves).

Started to catch up on the latest Walking Dead, ended up fast forwarding it as its shite. Really enjoyed all the Z Nations series though.

I gave up on Walking Dead about halfway through the third series, didn't even think it was still going because I never hear anyone with good things to say about it

The Walking Dead could have been about 4 seasons and been stellar television. And it started off well. But whole episodes of gobshytes talking and nothing happening gets old very quickly. Using the show as a ratings cow instead of what the story requires.

Yup, they should have ended it absolutely forever ago and it would have made for a good rewatch and all, but they let it turn into dogshit instead.

Finally started watching The Sopranos on my brotehr's recommendation.  Fantastic TV.  Only on S3 at the minute mind but I can barely leave it alone.
