It was really good the first few seasons.
Those are the seasons I watched.

I dunno.... it seemed over the top. The supporting characters all made me wish that Dexter would just murder THEM. His sister, his GF, his boss, his partner.... ugh, they were all such overactors, it was intolerable. Maybe it was supposed to be that way and it just didn't resonate with me, but gawd, I hated it.

It would have been weird watching him kill his sister....

Would an American audience appreciate it or do you have to know British politics?
You could try. It is character driven; but it's almost impossible to find, someone has downloaded on Youtube all 9 episodes. If you don't like the 1st or 2nd go around, just stop, but I think its' great. Give it a go, tell me what you think.

Anyone watch White Collar? I am not usually a fan of USA shows, but I started watching this on Netflix the other day and it is really good.

I recorded the first season of Vikings and I am just getting around to it. It is pretty good.

The Michael J Fox Show looks great. Plus I like the chick from Breaking Bad.

Vikings is good.

Hannibal is off the hook, however.

I finally got around to it on the DVR and it is incredible.

I can see how it is low rated however, way too smart and complex for the average American idiot. Should have been on F/X or something.

Great performances by everyone, great story.

Gets my highest recommendation.

Not sure if it has been mentioned before as a show, buy I watched the 2 seasons of The Killing and really enjoyed it. I got into it big time.

I watched that show also but I have to admit it wore me down after a while. It went two seasons and I am not sure the murder was ever solved.

I've watched the first 5 episodes of Orange is the New Black on Netflix and 4 out of 5 have been good. Episode 5 about the feral chicken was kind of stupid and far-fetched. Hopefully that's not a sign that the writers were running out of ideas and simply threw crap against the wall for the final 9 episodes.

Been reading a lot off good reviews about this, I am putting it on season record.


They are rerunning all the episodes again this Friday on FX if anybody wants to watch from the beginning.

Going to start watching Deadwood. Too many people have suggested otherwise. Wish me good luck.

Prepare to be pissed off.
That's what I was going to say.

And since you are into pissing yourself off, Irish...watch Carnivale as well. Or kick yourself in the balls. Same sensation.
