    Despite the gayboy's recommendations, it's actually very good.

    Can't argue about The Wire, but imdb ratings for cult/niche programming is always skewed due to the limited demographic that watches and votes for it. Generally pre-pubescents, fantasists and the socially challenged.

    That's Noony!

    Anyway, I just watched the first pilot episode for Battlestar G and it was surprisingly good. Better than that terrible movie, even if they did nick the robot costumes from it.

    Good comedy - 'Alpha House'

    Came across this when checking the new entries on EZTV.

    Four Republican senators sharing the same D.C. house rental.

    Alpha House (TV Series 2013

    All 11 episodes of the first season are available on Kickass.

    Runner Runner (2013) Good film about casinos, online poker, and the perils and cheats that exist. Ben Affleck & a surprisingly good Justin Timberlake.

    We're the Millers was better than I thought it'd be. Worth watching to see Jennifer Aniston's tits & arse.

    The Counselor (2013) Brad Pitt, Michael Fassbender, Cameron Diaz, Penelope Cruz. Lawyer thinks it'll be easy to get involved in the drug business. Worth watching just for the bloody scenes (particularly several very very gruesome scenes)& Cameron Diaz's erection inducing performance.

    ^I loved that too. I got slagged off because it was the guy who directed Notting Hill & Love Actually and some folks I was championing a yucky rom-com. But no! Its a fun film without the obvious twists

    i couldn't watch after that season with kathy bates.

    acting was just dire.

    maybe it's just the accent.

    and the accent sounds like an auto cue being read by someone who can't really read.

    This is the man who raves about Babylon 5, a series as camp as as the Rocky Horror Show, but without the songs, jokes and story or anything at all, really really bad.

    The Shield.... Forget the ratings, this is the best drama series ever made.

    and let's not forget his obsession with Buffy and the gay dark version, True Blood

    weak plot, terrible acting by Ben, surprisingly ok acting for Timberlake

    some interesting points about the online gambling world, a mix of hackers and gambling addicts

    Just finished watching The Shadow Line. Seven part BBC Thriller. Fantastic stuff, with loads of well known British actors.
    I highly recommend it.

    Spielberg is fun when he's not up his own arse. The Terminal was great. Also based on a true story.
