Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted September 12, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 Happy about the return of Boardwalk. I watched the first season in about 2 days. I need to start watching more stuff on Atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfMetal Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Sky Atalantic has fast become the best channel on Sky, with Boardwalk Empire being the jewel in the crown. Â Having said that, Game Of Thrones has been the highest rating show on the channel so far. I watched it, but after an anti-climactic ending, and not having much else happen throughout the series (constant talk of a war that never came) won't be watching it when it returns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then went to Sky One once Bravo ceased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big mickey Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Have any of you been watching the Borgias? I am really enjoying it, something about sleezy religion that I just love. Fascinated by the story of it all too. Â Yeah, actually didn't think it would be any good, but very surprised how much I like it. Â Mad Men was another show I thought I wouldn't enjoy, but ended up loving it, the very very tiny bits of humour are so well done, for example the Sunday meeting where everyone is called in & Pete Campbell stands up revealing his little white Tennis shorts! Little things like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members lambyUK Posted September 12, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 I just feel ill that the amazing Entourage is having its final episode tonight.

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted September 12, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 12, 2011 Drogo died from that in the book, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted September 12, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 12, 2011 It's still shit when your favourite character in something dies though. That said, he totally no-sold it when it happened so at least he didn't completely go out like a sucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually suprised at how good they looked. And I don't think everyone was raving about the ending because they saw Dany's tits. The ending is good because it's the logical ending of how Dany starts off the season as a bargaining chip for her brother and the Dothraki but gradually gets stronger and more confident to the point that she is now a leader of her own army and she even has her own motherfuckin' dragons and others in the show had at that point mentioned how unbelievably deadly the dragons were. Drogo dying was a necessary twist because it gave Dany the power and opportunity to go out on her own. So now in season 2 while the Starks and Lannisters are killing eachother Dany will be an even bigger threat coming that neither of them are prepared for.  [close spoiler] ");document.close(); And complaining that the war never came isn't really fair. While Game Of Thrones has some of the best production values in television history you can't expect Braveheart-esque battle scenes. And frankly, in the books the battle scenes are pretty much completely glossed over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I do like looking at a good pair of tits on tv. I'm constantly in awe of the clever way men come up with in scripts to persuade beautiful women to expose their breasts to the general public. In recent years, tv writers have really upped the ante by persuading proper actresses to paw each others' tits in lesbo-erotic scenes. We really are much cleverer than women.
