Strange ending, I guess it had to end somehow.

Thoroughly enjoyable the whole way through despite Walt being very frustrating to watch.

Some decisions were absolutely stupid for such an intelligent man.

Will do, my boss gave the recommendation too.

He's been asking for reports of where I'm up to while him and his wife watch two episodes of Shameless each night.

I did, was a bit slow to start off with but enjoyable nonetheless, thank you for the recommendation.

I'm a few shows behind, one of them being Ted. Binge watching right now. Series 1 - up to Ep 4. What a fantastic show! Up there with the best I've seen especially early on when some shows take some time to get going.

Indeed.

Perhaps the worst show to have a second series.

Bears (pun intended) no resemblance to the original in terms of, well anything.

Everything on TV is f*cken shit house.

^ This.

I've had it on in the background, and I didn't think it was bad ... but it ain't a patch on Ruth and Garry.

Highly recommend watching "End Game" on ABC iView with Tony Armstrong. A look at racism in sport and society and the impact of social media on it.

It's a tough watch but one I encourage everyone to watch.

King & Conquerer on SBS

A ripping good yarn with little connection to actual history

I reckon there would be some Afghan's living in the mountain caves that are ahead of me as far as watching TV shows. Exhibit A: I just started watching Game of Thrones on Thursday, I reckon I'll see this one through.
