    <p>If anyone hasn't watched Bosch, I'd highly recommend it. Bit of a clichéd cop drama but done really well I reckon, felt on a par with the first True Detective. Just finished 2nd season which may be better than the 1st. It's an Amazon series...</p>

    <p>Thanks. Saw an ad for that last night. Wondered what it was like.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Really itching to see The Americans in what looks to be the wrap up season (I'm guessing) and torn between jumping on it straight away or avoiding spoilers and saving it up.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It's the kind of show that has great cliffhangers though and does suit week by week.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>This show is such quality and so highly rated critically yet has not gathered the size of audience it deserves. I wonder if it will become a bit of a sleeper like The Wire was.</p>
    <p>Great scripts, the acting and characters are so good, tension, sex and violence yet the plot doesn't get so convoluted that you struggle to keep up.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>If you haven't watched it I would really recommend bingeing your way through the first 3 series.</p>

    <p>I like Titus Welliver, so have had my eye on this for a while, been putting off this and Peaky Blinders, just cos I don't need another series to get into!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Have heard good things about Night Manager and Hap Leonard looks good, especially as it has James Purefoy in it.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I'll probably wait until I can get half the series of The Americans, and then watch a couple a week, brilliant show.</p>

    Yeah I've got season 3 of the Americans sitting there waiting. Just started on the Night Manager too, which is proving excellent 3 episodes in.

    <p>I hope Ser Bronn of the Blackwater gets to kick some ass this season. Also keen to see the Mountain do the same, I've heard that Ramsay is gonna get whats coming to him too.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Anyone seen Penny Dreadful ? if it's been mentioned in the previous 113 pages I apologise, great entertainment. The better half made me watch it and I got addicted despite myself.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I think I'm the only person on earth who doesn't like Vikings, just didn't do it for me for whatever reason.</p>

    Isn't penny dreadful one of the few things Eva Green has done without getting them out?

    <p>Also, speaking of the Night Manager, Hiddleston has got to be a shoo-in for the next Bond?</p>

    <p>Hell no, IIRC she gets them out often. More in the first series than the second.</p>

    I read that the success of S1 threw the plans out a bit. <br>
    Original idea was to do a Daredevil, a JJ, a Luke Cage and an Iron Fist then join them all together as the Defenders. Luke Cage was delayed as they did DD S2 (but is shooting now). Iron Fist not started yet I don't think. <br>
    If they do a JJ S2 it will delay the plan even further.

    <p>Well I've clearly gone for a piss or a snack every time she whipped them out cos I was expecting it and yeah, very disappointing. One of the bad witch's got all CGI nude, bald and scarred which wasn't quite the same cos she looked particularly nice in her human form.</p>
