I tried 4 or 5 eps of The Wire, wasn't for me
Had a look at Black Monday with Don Cheadle, only watched 1 so far but seems like it might be kinda Wolf of Wall Street without Margot.
Do not listen to this @mariner4life
The Wire might be the best show on tv, ever.
I’m struggling to think of a series I’ll happily re-watch multiple times, apart from the Wire or Band of Brothers.

Duckman is 26 years old this year, and I have started watching the complete series again. It is amazing that back in the mid 90's something like this was commissioned and broadcast (on pay tv), and that it lasted 4 seasons.
This is the role that Jason Alexander was meant for, starting this mid Seinfeld run. So angry and deviant.
*edit, shit, posted to the wrong thread. Could a mod please move this to the TV Series thread
Done now - just doing some catch up on old threads and saw this.

Amazon Prime do sport documentaries well. Currently watching The Test: A New Ear for Australia's Team
Recommended.

@antipodean I've got one sitting on the sky box, a four parter (I think) called Mind Games, "A compelling exploration of the mental side of cricket".
Broadcast here by sky sports cricket so not sure where else it would be available.

Ep 2 of Westworld last night. Maeve is my favourite host so I liked the episode. Plenty to think about regarding what is real and what is a simulation in the current version of Westworld. One question from the last episode of S2 was answered, but we still don't know who the other 4 hosts are.
:::
I'm guessing Abernathy is one of them, possibly in Charlotte.

Plus we had a reference to another HBO show.

@taniwharugby I was referring to the whole scene, "actors" and others.

The Walking Dead thread got me thinking of all the series i never finished.
House of Cards, maybe halfway through season 2? just got sick of the same shit every episode, and getting more and more unbelievable
Billions, again maybe halfway though the 2nd season, realised i didn't actually like any of the characters
Jack Ryan S2. Didn't have the same feel as the first one
American Gods. Halfway through first season, not as good as the book, found myself doing other things rather than watchingi have an attention span problem

@mariner4life Do you have an aversion to great TV (and The Walking Dead).

i just don't watch much, and suddenly, if you miss a couple of series, it becomes a burden
for instance, it would take me 2 years to watch Breaking Bad i reckon. I'm not going to start that shit
and, given the wife and i don't see much of each other as it is, i am hardly going to make her sit through S3:E4 of a show she hasn't watched at all.

oh, and Watchmen. It was boring as fuck.

@mariner4life It took me 6 years to watch Breaking Bad ... pilot and second episode in 2008 and the rest in 2014.
More short season shows that are good:
Firefly 14 eps https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0303461/
Terriers 13 eps https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1493239/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
