Tv Shows & Mini Series (Part 1)

Hope is a terrible thing.

Weeds is back

Can drive a man insane

Entourage has picked up in the last few weeks imo. Johnny Bananas has potential. Vince, Turtle & E should all just FOAD but I’d like to see more of yer wan Turtle was after [Blanca from the Sopranos].

Just finished John Adams btw- Excellent character piece, no fighting in it but fantastic insight into the times. The French really come across as a cool cultured race in it, you can see why they look down on the English speaking world watching this.

Entourage is slightly better alright, but Recuse ma hasn’t picked up at all really. I know what they are trying to do, but its a bit boring.

I see Sky have bought up the rights to everything produced by HBO. So Boardwalk Empire and True Blood will be going to Sky as well as older stuff like The Wire, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Sopranos.

Don’t know why but I wouldn’t watch any of those on Sky 1. Just hate that fucking channel. They’ll probably put them on movie channels first.

What a silly lad.

So will Boardwalk Empire be shown over here as soon as it starts?

They were really promoting the shit out of it in America. Billboards everywhere. And loads of ads on tv. Looks really good.

Just over 2 weeks til air time, you have to say this looks like it could be more than decent. Scorsese to start with, then you have Winter and Patten who have The Sopranos in their lockers and Wahlberg as well. Buscemi to lead it, am looking forward to it.

BTW Rocko you forgot Mad Men there in the HBO locker.

Mad Men is on AMC

Thats probably why he omitted it then, shite. :unsure:

That’s an AMC show.

Shit I went away from the desk and the thread hadn’t refreshed. But yeah it’s an AMC show,

:smiley:

Yes. Yes it is.

It’s an AMC show right?

I’d rather check it out before I comment for sure, I’ve been caught out like this before.

Just going through the first series of Damages, its pretty excellent. Ted Danson does his thing, I hate Glenn Close but she is very good in it.
