Your dislikes trouble me

Same here!


How about True Detective if it hasn't been mentioned already?

Also Vikings?

 

[ci_newman]

I really enjoyed "Dexter" and even liked the ending....

How about "Battlestar Galactica" the newer one. One of my all time favourites...

I was going to suggest these too

Just one thing - am kicking myself slightly for not exploring it before - amazon prime actually does have a few good shows on it - have been subscribed for a while simply because I use it a lot for next day delivery but there are some classics on there

'freaks and geeks' is worth checking out - only lasted one season but was a very good show

 

[oldbag]

for something a bit more sci fi:

orphan black

Orphan Black is awesome.

Into the West can be had for less than £5 from the rainforest.

If I like mafia films (which I do), am I likely to enjoy Boardwalk Empire?

It's on sky box sets till November.

 

[dowie]

Yes! Very likely - tis a good series.

no good for the OP if he didn't like the Sopranos but if you like that gendre then definitely worth watching
