They are both quality tv programmes. I am a bit surprised that the Americans is on itv, as i would of thought Sky would have purchased it and put it on Sky 1. But really who gives a crap what channel its on as long as you have access to it.

Bloooooobirds.

The Walking Dead is by far the best television series going at the moment. I couldn't really get into Banshee, Polo. I felt it had a bit more potential than it has shown. Saying that, I couldn't get into The Wire either but might give that another go.

Lost interest in the walking dead, the wire to me is crap, banshee gets better and better, also a brand new series looks promising Ray Donavan :thumbup:

banshee is good, though i like it more for the over the top violence than the story which is a little thin imo.

they gave the main woman character a massive fight scene in the last episode which was fantastic and brutal.


the scene where the guy fights the boxer though is top class!! :lol:

Yeah, story is a little weak but the violence (if a little OTT) and the sex scenes with such beautiful women :lol: are class.

I think the Proctor charachter is superb. What an actor. Goes from nutjob to calm and sophisticated in a split second.

yeah, he went postal with the Amish in the last episode :lol:

its a typical HBO show with the violence and sex really, can be as graphic as it likes due to being a subscription channel.

Just remembered the enormus albino guy from a few episodes ago!! :lol: :lol:

true, good to see a good adaptation of a book, a lot more to work with in a 10 episode tv show than a film for example.
