    Ófærð (TV Series 2015? ) - IMDb
    Just finished the first 2 episodes. Interesting to me as it's set in a part of the world about which I know very little - and with weather like that, I'll certainly never visit. Some fantastic scenery shots. I rarely watch shows with subtitles, but these are well done and you almost forget they're there. And good that they are, as Icelandic is one strange language. Thus far, maybe a 6.5. Might go up to 7 when/if the story line develops a bit more.
    Couldn't have said it better myself, so I won't.......'Fortitude' Fortitude (TV Series 2015? ) - IMDb is a bit similar & better. They've got another season coming up sooner or later.
    Compared to 'real' Scandinavian series, I thought 'Fortitude' was poor, with the non-Scandinavian cast (mainly British), and English language throughout. The story line was also stretching the imagination somewhat. To cap it all, although supposedly in Norway, it was filmed in Iceland.

    Not seen it myself but heard plenty good things about it.

    I quite enjoyed season 4 of House of Cards- it was certainly better than last season, and- though it jumped around quite a bit and had more storylines than usual (one major plot-point being completely unbelievable, but suspension-of-disbelief is a big part of shows like this)- I thought it was definitely worth watching. Kevin Spacey is always fun in his portrayal of President Underwood.
    There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

    ^ I binge watched that a couple of days ago. Thought it was great.

    One thing bothered me, though. Don't know if it was the copy I downloaded or if it was actually the way the scenes were filmed only with table lamps. Was too dark. Nearly went blind trying to see some of the night time scenes.

    Good one. Never heard of it before. Cool old time cop show with some good actors from other old cop shows. Some good tunes as well.

    It was definitely your copy. I downloaded one episode of the early low-res web-rips, and it was so dark it was nearly unwatchable. The 720p downloads took longer to appear, but were way better.

    I really enjoyed this series. Bummed to discover it was dumped after only the one season.

    Binged season two of Bosch. Overnight. Red eyes. Started to fall asleep, and re revved, loved it.

    The problem was i downloaded it from kickass and it just kept starting again, another episode. So i had to keep watching and watching. Till my head hurt.

    For those watching the dark, Icelandic murder mystery "Trapped", the final two episodes of SEA1 just came up. Hope it gets a second season.

    "The Americans" is back with SEA4 on the 16th - 17th for us.

    I watched 'Run All Night'... Err, the other night!

    Bit of an under the radar Liam Neeson action flick. At least I'd never heard of it (not even sure where I got it from at this point either). Also has that dude Joel Kinnaman from The Killing in it.

    Not really that different from your average action-type film but I thought the story was interesting enough. Decent watch.

    Apparently they have bio weaponry to contend with now, as well as needing to talk about Paige.

    Can't wait to see how this excellent series continues.

    ^I think Paige plays large in this season. I really don't like her thus far - we shall see.

    I think she'll have to either play large or that part of the storyline just completely fizzles out.

    I'm curious to see how they handle it.
