re: Homeland>The Wire>Breaking Bad

[quote]I think The Wire has overtaken The Big Lebowski as the most hyped piece of entertainment on this board.[/quote]
When/if you watch the Wire watch the first four episodes in a single sitting. If you're not into it by the end of the fourth episode then it's not for you and that's fine. But fo...
re: Homeland>The Wire>Breaking Bad
Posted by SHough610 on 1/29/13 at 2:44 pm
The Wire is tops, it's the greatest drama that was ever televised. For me it goes:
The Wire > Breaking Bad > The Sopranos > Justified/Boardwalk Empire/Game of Thrones > Mad Men
Breaking Bad's fifth season (technically, the first half of the fifth season) suffered from the same problems the Wir...

[quote]Probably the worst screw job was Ordinary People winning Best Picture over Raging Bull and Redford getting the Bet Director Oscar over Scorsese. The Academy might as well have strapped on a ten-inch dildo and reamed Scorsese in the arse because that's how badly he got fricked over. [/quote]

re: What is this board's opinion on Friday Night Lights (TV series)
Posted by SHough610 on 1/21/13 at 10:50 am
I think it's the last network drama that reaches the level of cable dramas.
It was a show that didn't talk down to or stereotype, it was emotionally honest and brilliant. Plus it did something that most shows have a hard time with: it stuck the landing and had a great finale. ...

Seven Samurai, Amacord, 400 Blows, Hard Boiled, M, Yojimbo, Band of Outsiders (if you're a Tarantino fan I HIGHLY recommend this one), Throne of Blood, Masculin, féminin, Breathless, Two-Lane Blacktop, The Thin Red Line, and Blast of Silence (it's like an early version of the Taxi Driver). ...
