Has anyone got any suggestions for good TV shows to download and watch?
Here's a few recommendations of my own:
Spartacus:
Season one is excellent, give it a few episodes to set the scene, first one or two episodes seem a bit OTT on the gore but by the time you're half way through the season you'll be hooked. It's a mixture of the films 300 and Gladiator (in my opinion). Some good well known actors in it. The next few seasons are still very good but the first one is not to be missed.
Game of Thrones:
Most of you will have heard of / watched this already. Without spoiling it by giving away the plot I'd recommend you give this a watch for the first few episodes whilst it introduces all the characters. A very good series
Vikings:
Another excellent historical based series, tells you the story about the blokes who first came to England from Norway and caused us all havok 1200 years ago. Very good story telling, good acting and action and well worth a watch. Only filmed two seasons up until now but both have been excellent.
Orange is the new Black:
Only recently got in to this one... wasn't expecting much from it and there's a few characters amongst them all who'll grate on you but it's a good mixture of comedy and telling you the story of the lives of women in prison and their issues.
Breaking Bad:
Another really well known one but if you've not seen it yet, you don't know what you're missing. Season one is a bit slow as it needs to get the story across of why everything's happening... but from season two to the very end it's probably the best TV show I've ever watched.
Other shows which you might like:
True Blood - First few seasons are really good... gradually gets sh!tter as you get further through it.
Fringe - Took me a while (1 full season) to realise what was happening... but turned out to be really good
Person of Interest - Another good one... great action and story from the first episode.
