I didn't know this was on in the states, I have just been considering downloading. Everyone seems to be throwing the episodes in the air and seeing where they land before broadcasting.

Episode Order

If you want to get ahead of the game

I think Pilger does this kind of thing, so much better, more entertaining and more informative.
Yes, I've been watching the Oliver Stone programme. I must say it depressed me quite a bit! There was me, always thinking Ike had been warning us against the build up of the military industrial complex, and there he was for his entire term building it up! And the way Roosevelt's vice president Henry Wallace was treated was appalling. I've got up to Part 6 so far, have got 7 and 8 lined up to watch, when I can bear the disappointment again! But I must admit, it is really well done as far as i can see, and I am on the whole enjoying it greatly.

So even if the episodes are all over the place for order...the first one was cracking fun.

Basically mini versions of the movie, loads of car chases and fighting....and a massive advert for Audi

Also fun that it does seem to be based out of the same home as the movie and the cop friend is the chap from the movie I think.

Storylines are similarly silly but that's no bad thing.

Cracked

Another Canadian cop drama, seems to be a new team headed up by a former SWAT guy who had a break down, looking at weird old cases.

Could be interesting. The Canadians have done a lot of decent cop shows and as King was cancelled, hoping this will be a good replacement.

Pretty good this, certainly a tad quirky. Worth checking out.

Banshee - Very weird show, I liked it but the missus wasn't a fan, tad graphic on the violence.

It's about a just released con who ends up taking the identity of a new sheriff in Amish county. Has issues of people trying to catch up with him related to the job he did that got him in prison in the first place.

Thorne - Sleepyhead.

UK detective drama with David Morrissey. I've read the book and thought this was a good adaptation - but they only seemed to show one part before moving on to the next story

new series or this from last year?

They were shown as 2 part stories I thought...unless I'm thinking of another show.

House of Lies

Second series just started and I think that was enough of that....just very annoying, more so than before. Seems to just go on "shock" value with language and manky people having sex.

Really dull story lines and dialogue.

Giving up on this one.
