"Oh I also enjoyed the killing; the American one; with that sour faced ginger in it ... I liked her"
i loved the original "killing" and didn't much care for the american version.....
i have turned into a scandi snob.....  |

Not watched any of the first two but I'll give a second vote to the other two, ....
Thou if ya want a critique ; the cgi on black sails was a bit meh, and the kiddy in lie to me , plays a little fast and loose with the cockney accent |

"I am watching Zoo....
enjoying it"
have to say i am liking that so far as well...... i don't normally into the main us networks drama....
p.s anyone who likes "homeland" or "the americans" will absolutely love Deutschland 83.....

I also liked Orphan Black.
Downton Abbey - which I totally thought I'd hate! 
24
West Wing I started but not finished.
Have the Sopranos and Breaking Bad to start.
Greys Anatomy rocks but perhaps a bit girly?
Chicago Fire too.
Criminal Minds!!! 
Stalker... liked this too... next series is about to start I think.
Reruns of Prime Suspect/Wire in the Blood/The Vice/Rebus... all good.

Life.
US cop show starring Damien Lewis as a cop sent to jail for 12yrs for murdering his partner and family. Has released when new evidence is found which clears him and he re-joins the LAPD to find the people who set him up.
It o my ran for two seasons but it was absolutely brilliant. |

Falling Skies is very good as is the strain (both already mentioned)
Comedy - third Rock from the Sun if you never watched it first time (although looking a little dated now)
Dark matter
Dusk till dawn (Netflix only)
Sense 8 (another Netflix only)
However one series you must see is..... American Horror! |

Well...just watch West Wing again.
I try to at least once a year although Fab has been getting in the way recently.
All 7 seasons should fill your 10 days nicely. |
