In fairness, I don't really do the whole fantasy thing. Equally, I can categorically state it is NOT the only thing worth watching It is the only thing worth watching that is on tv at the moment. There are other things but they are in between seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StringerBell Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Some that haven't been mentioned off the top of my head Someone said Last Airbender so if we're including animated I'll say Attack on Titan Mr Robot Eastbound and Down Carl Sagan said Twin Peaks but the new series is almost like a different show (+I'll second the Expanse) Oh and has anyone mentioned Game of Thrones?

Might need a second viewing They're making a movie of it to continue the story. The entire cast except Powers Booth have signed up too. The idea of a movie to wrap up the story has been around for a while but I'm not sure whether it is intended to be a once-off or the first of a number of them. If they follow the life story of Al Swearingen, for instance, I find it hard to believe that could be done in one movie, especially with the richness of the storytelling in Deadwood itself. (Don't google his name if you don't want to know what happens to him.) Do watch it again by the way; it is one of those things that you pick up elements of detail you missed first time around. I'm going to have a third viewing at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a full-on potty mouth the language did make me laugh. Surely the highest swear-count ever, The Commitments notwithstanding. I thought at one stage they were planning another series and I then read got shelved so I'd love it if they did do something to round it all off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
