I'm jealous.
This and breaking bad are the ones I wish I could see first again.

Baconislife · 03/03/2019 11:35

I'm like that when someone watches Homeland for the first time

I think you mean You Knerr Nothing Jon Snerr

Bobbybobbins · 03/03/2019 18:02

Ooh yes Homeland! Can't wait for the next/final series!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 03/03/2019 18:12

My DH is bngewatching it (again) he started last week when I wasn't here to protest.

I have no clue what series/episode but there's been The Red Wedding and now Ramsey is trying to persuade Reek to use his nickname , No spoilers from me though.

I didn't watch Breaking Bad but he bingewatched Line of Duty for the first time and we both really got engrossed in it.

I have my laptop on the dining room table so I can see the telly .

My favourite line is 'there's no cure for being a cunt'

Favourite character is the Hound.

GRRM keeps getting caught up in side projects. Finish the damn books already Angry

I need to start Line of Duty by the sound of it. Would I enjoy it if I loved Breaking Bad and GoT?

Baconislife · 03/03/2019 19:01

Line of duty is amazing tv

Line Of Duty is solid but prone to soap opera twists, be prepared to love Ted Hastings, the moral compass of the show who now has his own MN thread 😂

sonjadog · 03/03/2019 19:33

I had a huge Tyrion crush. I am looking forward to reawakening it when the new season starts.

KingHenrysCodpiece · 03/03/2019 19:34

Line of duty is ace!

Lay off the Hound Grimbles he's MY favourite character.

Second favourite is Sir Jorah.

Then she of 'For the night is dark and full of terrors'

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 03/03/2019 20:44

I cannot work out if The Hound is good or bad.

Though compared to The Mountain................... !

There are some really nasty bits (no spoilers)
My 19yo DS watched it (on his own) , I wouldn't like to sit down with my little boy for some family viewing that was GoT Grin

Grimbles · 03/03/2019 21:58

I'm a book Stannis fan and I'm pissed off about what they did to TV Stannis

MrsDeanWinchester75 · 03/03/2019 22:52

I've never seen an episode or a trailer but am a bit intrigued by the popularity.

I imagine it to be a bit like the Lord of the Rings which I hated, am I wrong?

BartonHollow · 03/03/2019 22:59

@MrsDeanWinchester75

Yes and no

It has swords and dragons but as a plot is largely based on various true events from British History, the Wars Of The Roses etc

It's more about shifting political landscapes, conniving types, and character psychology / complex family dynamics than it is about y'know

Hobbits N Shit

Plus going off your username - there's plenty of floppy haired eye candy for you. Grin

JohnnyHatesJazz · 03/03/2019 23:01

My favourite character is Podrick Wink Grin

JohnnyHatesJazz · 03/03/2019 23:02

Really hard not to give away any spoilers!

BartonHollow · 03/03/2019 23:02

BUT WHAT DID HE DOOOO THAT THEY DIDNT PAY HIM Grin

Drogosnextwife · 03/03/2019 23:07

I didn't watch it for a long time, I'm a bit Hmm at hyped up programmes but I absolutely loved it! It's where I found the love of my life 😂^

SpareASquare · 04/03/2019 00:16

My 19yo DS watched it (on his own) , I wouldn't like to sit down with my little boy for some family viewing that was GoT grin

Yeah, good idea.
My dd and I are still not over the time we thought we'd watch True Blood together because, you know, "I'm an adult now" Grin

KingHenrysCodpiece · 04/03/2019 01:27

Podrick!Grin

Baconislife · 04/03/2019 10:06

I've done 15 episodes so far.
Definitely hooked now 😀

Bobbybobbins · 05/03/2019 20:51

Did you guys see the trailer today?? Shock

BartonHollow · 05/03/2019 21:00

Discussing it over on the AIBU thread @Bobbybobbins the OP on this thread isn't up to speed so it wouldn't be fair

OneInAMillionYou · 05/03/2019 21:03

Trailer is magnificent.

As a PP said up thread, there will never be another TV series like it, or of its moment, as much as GoT. To me it is a piece of art which will stand repeated scrutiny for years to come.
