The Small Screen: TV

I'm almost up to speed on Ray Donovan. Hasn't been a single episode of that show I don't love. Dunno how they all can come out of this season alive. There's too many big guns gunning for them. Great episode when Mickey and Ray went to Primm to collect the money. Everything Mickey does turns to sh1t! :lolz:

It's been brilliant all year, can't wait for the last two episodes! You did some serious binging Kieran! I'm impressed lol. Do either of you watch Suits? I'm almost through the second season, very good, especially for network TV

Nah.. I haven't watched Suits.. I have been watching the Night of, Power and Mr Robot( which I am gonna stop, it's too mind boggling )

Yeah, watched a few seasons of Suits, I like it. It upped its game after an average start, imo, where the plot twists had bigger signposts than the road to Primm :snicker .

Great characters, good villains, and of course, sexy broads...

 

[Kieran]

Last episode I watched was too brilliant to describe, but it involved Ray dancing in front of the telly, Conor getting a lesson in the hard facts of life, Mickey changing orientation and then back again. It's incredibly cool, this show.

Question came to me, though: what happened to Ray's NFL 3%? He's been strapped since, well, can't spoil it for anyone...

I don't think they could get league approval to purchase the team because of the shady history of the potential owners including Ray.. Cochran screwed Ray on that one

So what did you think about Micky and his homosexual jail act.. wasn't that hilarious:laydownlaughing

 

[Kieran]

Okay, so I'm up to speed. Dmitri is a psycho, and I haven't a clue how Ray gets out of this one...but it's excellent. Pity Lisa Bonet is gone, she still looks hot, even playing a junkie...

Yeah! He was quick thinking to pull down his trousers when that old cell mate was dying before him! :laydownlaughing

That's got to win Jon Voight the Emmy next year :laydownlaughing:snicker

 

[Kieran]

He's incredible. The scene in the last episode when he's sitting on the stairs of the Fite Club, talking to Ray about Sylvie, he should get an Emmy for that too. He can play funny or tragic, and still be the same character...

 

[teddytennisfan]

just thought I would share this clip with you guys. Had me in stitches..


somehow ii am reminded of that commercial a few years ago

the one with ROGER coming through customs in NYC? and two big female security girls checking his credentials and questioning him about chocolate in his suitcase and they took it as contraband and ate it? lol!!!

taht was so cute!

 

[Federberg]

if by year to year anticipation --i've only really followed GoT And Penny Dreadful.

i am still upset that they stopped - unceremoniously --

teh DRACULA by jonatahn rhys-meyers
and SHERLOCK HOLMES of cumberbatch
other than these -- no series i've tried to be curious about has really been of interest to me.

and then avidly watch and rewatch attenborough's (and spin-offs by him) PLANET EARTH series .

the rest - i just try and catch whatever movie is interesting.
s

Me too! I'm a huge Attenborough fan. Something so soothing about his voice. I'll watch nature shows all day if I could. Nat Geo is probably my favourite channel of all

Finished House of Cards Season 1 - Top Quality. Just started watching Season 2. Season 2 of Narcos is on the immediate bucket list. Never watched Deadwood when it was on, so will look at this, and have Season 2 of Fargo waiting. So many good shows around these days.

@Mastoor mentioned Only Fools and Horses on another thread. This has to be my favourite sitcom of all time - Superb writing... Not sure how it would translate for American viewers (probably not too well - very British and lots of British slang). Nobody knows it in Australia, but I guess it was exported successfully to NZ.

 

[DarthFed]

I'm going to get to Narcos at some point too. May end up being in October though, too busy right now.

Not sure if I asked before but does anyone watch Ray Donovan? That show has gotten phenomenal over the last 2 seasons (2 episodes left in season 4) and the first 2 seasons were very good as well. Amazing acting, particularly from Liev Schreiber, Jon Voight and the guy who plays Ray's brother with Parkinson's disease. Highly recommended
