I recently hammered through 3 season of Justified. It's great.

Have started The Newsroom. 3 episodes in and I'm hooked!

I like.
Love it. Had sooooo many episodes recorded at one stage I almost deleted them all as it seemed like too much of a chore to get through them all. Am now up to date and so glad I didn't delete.
Although for some reason the first episode in the new series didn't record so I didn't see the climax of the previous series cliffhanger. :twisted:

Also a huge fan of Person of Interest.

Anybody seen that USA cops show "SouthLAnd", 5 seasons in, this flew under the radar. Been going since 2009. Google it. Screens late occassionally on GEM.
Bit of a graveyard for a few washed-up former B-grade-celeb movie actors, who need the income and exposure i guess.

I've watched up to episode 7 now. Looking forward to number 8, and then the final 8 next year.

TBH, I thought the series took a while to get going, but by season 4 it really picked up.

I am giving Magic City a try.

Just finished the second episode.

It's trying a little too hard to be "hard core mob" for my liking so I reckon I'll give it a miss from here on.

Also, is it just me or is it impossible to understand what the characters are saying half the time? Everyone on the show mumbles.

So you find it hard too, think positive? We would rewind and turn up the volume but still couldn't understand some parts of many sentences. It got us thinking they were throwing in some yiddish words.
