It's called "Left Behind", believe it's meant to be a prequel to the main story.

I've mostly been playing the original Doom lately, as I'm stuck in the past. Still a bloody great game though, although the level design gets pretty frustrating at times after being used to these modern day linear shooters.

Breaking Bad - "4 Days Out" is probably a good one. You don't particularly need to have watched the rest of the series to understand what's going on, as it's pretty much all laid out in the opening. You also get a good sense of the relationship between the characters, one of those stylish meth cooking montages, and a good dose of humour.

I've been slowly making my way through the Zatoichi boxset I bought at Christmas time. Watched 15 of them now, and despite there being little variety in story they're all bloody great. It's almost comforting sticking one on, as you know exactly what you're going to get - a blind man sticking up for the little guy and slashing up some bad dudes.
