Great IMDb bio: "She is known for... The Perfect Vagina." I don't doubt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Patsy must be the only person in the Universe who has never watched Breaking Bad. I am downloading series one as i speak. I know that i will probably like it too much and stay up all night with that little devil saying "go on, just another episode" in my head. I may not be back for several days or weeks.... wish me luck!! My fridge and freezer are full. Amazing. Now, BrBa would be perfect to save for the time you have to hole up during Songkran. You won't even think about going anywhere. Probably (this may be controversial to say here) the greatest series since The Wire & The Sopranos. I agree that Breaking Bad is near the top of the heap, although - IMO - The Sopranos was slightly better. I liked The Wire, but - to me - the season that concentrated on Omar Little was by far the best and the only one that was on the same level as Breaking Bad & The Sopranos. "Omar's coming!". What a GREAT year though. I think that it was season 5. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_Little This is for Omar fans. It is a short prequel of his first robbery as a child.

robertthebruce Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Hi I went to the movies last night to see the new film The Third Person with Liam Neeseon, it was excellent...

GrantSmith Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Seems that the creativity boffins at abc have hit a wall... I present their latest offering: Forever which appears to be a slightly less quirky version of Sleepy Hollow blended with Elementary (which for those playing at home Season 3 kicks off at the end of October (30th) and if one hits the google search will find some bloody big spoilers!) (substitute Lucy Liu for Alana de La Garza (formerly of Law & Order - Assistant D.A Rubirosa - fame) and Ioan Gruffud comes in for Jonny Lee Miller. Pilot kicked off tonight, I'll give it a whirl as there's SFA on TV tonight save for Tyrant. Can also confirm that Blacklist kicks off on the 22nd of September. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have The Sopranos first followed by The Wire and then Breaking Bad. Not much in it to be honest and all 3 are outstanding.

That one came to mind too. *And, if comedy was included I would have to consider Seinfeld and also I Love Lucy.

All the actors were excellent... Unfortunately it only got one star rating.. ?? Bizarre, yet the film The Rover, which I have also seen, was awful and that got five stars ??? Betas me how they work this out. Never mind, so any film buffs out there , The Third Person is well worth the visit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I loved Entourage, but not in the "greatest of all time" sort of way. I think that Seinfeld is a contender, although I would not pick it personally. I think TV is MUCH better now that it used to be, so I'm pretty biased against old series being near the top of the heap, even though I really enjoyed them at the time. I realize that is just an opinion though. I actually would put Buffy the Vampire Slayer near the top of my favorites, but I doubt if many people would agree with me. Such good characters and - of course - she was so HOT! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keemapoot Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 It's hard to imagine any TV series ever topping the Sopranos. My opinion is the difference between the number 1 all time spot and number 2 is pretty far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, Seinfeld was just about my favourite comedy but now I prefer Curb Your Enthusiasm. And many years ago Fawlty Towers was the funniest thing I'd ever seen.

Sigurris Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I really liked the Sopranos but the reason I could not put it at the top of my best ever series was that none of the characters were likeable. Tony Soprano is a childish, heartless and selfish sociopath (which is why, of course, he was head of the family). That said it was well written, brilliantly acted and had staying power and I totally understand why many people have it at the top of their list. Other noteable series were Teachers, Shameless UK (season 1 and 2), Extras, Hell on Wheels, Justified, Deadwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curb Your Enthusiasm was brilliant, but so was Seinfeld, and so was Fawlty Towers. difficult to compare them together really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keemapoot Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 ^IMO, Fawlty towers would win best comedy series ever made, hands down, except for one thing: too few episodes and seasons. I think critics who compile "best ever" lists use staying power as one of the qualifying criteria, being able to repeat excellence and keep doing it year after year.

I think critics who compile "best ever" lists use staying power as one of the qualifying criteria, being able to repeat excellence and keep doing it year after year. But IMO, that's one of the reasons why the English make the best shows. They leave you wanting more like The Office, Extra's, Fawlty Towers etc etc. In a lot of cases, the US just keep pumping out the shows for the dollars. That's why a lot of the great early shows were from the BBC and ABC. They were less interested in the dollar and more about the art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
