English TV series discussion

Watched Pacific, from the makers of Band of Brothers. Man i must say these guys know Eggactly what the hell they are doing.
 
pacific isn't nearly as good as band of brothers though. at least not yet... in bob, even the first episodes were pretty damn good. heck i still remember currahee and scenes from it, even though i haven't seen the series in years. not true for this new series.
 
was so missing BoB after Pacific...that i ended up watching BoB again in just 2 days... 5 eps yes...5 today..

I think the main reason that show isn't as good as BoB is the time.. 45 min is just not enough... BoB eps ranged from 1hr to as long as 1:20 hr.. for a proper section/episode to conclude that much is needed IMO..
 
Spartacus Ep10 just blew me away. What story. The Drama that unfolded was just amazing. I thought that what they achieved in Ep9 would be a benchmark for the whole season but Ep10 was folds better. I could completely compare the scale of drama with the movie Troy when Achilles drags the body of Hector infront of his whole family. I almost had few tears in my eyes at the end of the episode. Just when i thought that a particular character would have a special role, Bam he is gone.

I guess we are soon going to have a separate thread for the series.
 
Spartacus Ep10 was really awesome.. Unexpected twist in the story. Even I was feeling that this particular character would have a very big role in the later episodes, but...!! Am eagerly waiting for next Sunday.
 
I am watching Castle S1 right now and loving it.
It's not particularly well written and the characters tend to act very OOC most of the time, but it's nice light-hearted detective stories of the kind I enjoy thoroughly (like Monk and Veronica Mars :P).

Gonna start watching Spartacus next. Troy was awesome despite its mediocre reviews.
