Still haven't got around to watching Game of Thrones latest series, most overrated show on TV, but feel I should soon so the dumb chicks at work can have something to talk about as they don't want to spoil it for me! :lol:


I agree, I cannot work out the mass love for GOT.

Dexter, done and dusted. Good show. I'll miss not sitting down watching it.

What's next?

Game of Thrones holds no interest to me. I'm thinking Mad Men and see where it leads me.

Not really into the zombie genre DK. (I had to look it up on imdb I have to admit)

Disappointed with the news Hannibal has been cancelled it was a cool show.

Honestly I didn't think it would until I watched it. So worth it.

Mad men also excellent.

I finished watching the last Ep of parks and rec today. My favourite sitcom I reckon

Season 3 of Wentworth finished, and if you're one of those that are into the show - What a cracking season it was!! Certainly going to leave a void on Tuesday nights.

Also seemed like they weren't sure if they were going to get a 4th season by the way things came to a close so quick.

In the end it was fairly uneventful, but spent the last hour of the season wondering who was gonna make it out alive. Love this show and much prefer it to Orange aswell (albeit they are different in nature). Love the little ironies and homage they pay to Prisoner at the time too.

Just finished watching the Netflix production Bloodline, and it was pretty good. Re-affirmed my opinion that Ben Mendelson is Australia's most underrated acting talent.

Good show, albeit slow in parts, but great cast who played their roles really well.

1st season of Better Call Saul done - very good. Can't wait to see Season 2.

1st season of Californication done - interesting. Seems to be a vapid skin flick.

Finished first two season of Vikings. Was entertaining enough, but it's a shame Netflix hasn't got S3 up yet.

TBH, Netflix AU is very underwhelming.

Both shows are great. Californication is basically a skin flick but it is fun

I got one of those free 3 month Netflix subs with a cheap Optus phone.

It's a bit disappointing but if you use a VPN and then log into your account on the US Netflix there is a much bigger library to choose from.
