I like the sound of Detectorists, downloading it now.

Very good it was too. Being a detectorist myself, I can relate to some of it. Mackenzie Crook is also a detectorist in real life :-)

"How not to live your life" was very funny.

I really enjoyed Vikings and Man in the High Castle. Currently watching Hand of God which is also great.

Last night's Better Call Saul on Netflix was incredible. Might need to watch Breaking Bad first though

Fringe was excellent. Just started watching American Gods, that's pretty tripped out. Ian McShane is great.

I hardly watch any American stuff, but I heard this being reviewed on the radio. I enjoyed it.

Wife raved about this.

Liked fleabag well written and acted.

Looking forward to Judge dredd tv series, not yet made though. I've watched so many series I can't think of one.

+1 for detectorists. I'm also watching the box set of Alf Garnet.

It's a very gentle comedy, but there are some great characters in it.

Blokes and their hobbies - something we should all be able to relate to on here. :smile:

ive caught the moonshiners boxsets on tv, ive always avoided watching it but strangely my wife loves it. looking forward to the next seasons on Ray Donovan and Gold Rush

 

[Wabby]

Yes Ray Donovan.

Detectorists first two episodes very good. Internet says that a third series is in production.

Yep, I'd stop wherever you're up to and watch BB first because half the fun of BCS is the in-jokes and lead-ups to to stuff that you're supposed to already know. Watching one without the other you're missing loads.

"Lost" was very weird but addictive. Also enjoyed the dark humour of "Dexter".

Just one episode of series 4 of The Americans left to watch before moving on to series 5.

For anyone that hasn't seen it, it's set during the cold war and is the story of two Russian agents living a 'normal' family life in America.

The pace has never dropped over four series and I've enjoyed every episode. Brilliant TV. Oh, and Keri Russell is absolutely gorgeous, which also helps.

Which TV series would you recommend?

Started watching The Americans last night as was a good start. Looking forward to the rest of them!

Detectorists or Car Share for a bit of gentle comedy, or Wayward Pines for American drama. Toby Jones is in The Detectorists and also 1st series of Wayward Pines where he pulls off a passable american accent....worth a gander..!

You'll soon be hooked. It's brilliant!
