    All the best, Gally. Hope you're ok and home again soon.

    I've enjoyed Daredevil, especially season 2 which introduced The Punisher.
    Also Jessica Jones, with the always excellent David Tennant as the baddie
    Currently loving Luke Cage.
    All are superhero shows for grown ups (or big kids like me) :)

    Rick and Morty is funny, the pilot is a bit ropey but from then on it's much better.

    The first season is a bit slow and it's hard to understand what's going on properly because there's so many characters. Stick with it though because it's amazing, by the end you feel like you know the ins and outs of the whole of Baltimore and the people who run it. I'd put Sopranos slightly ahead of the Wire.

    Just finished watching breaking bad for the second time, absolutely love it. Trouble for me is, when me and our lass try to get into something new, one of us falls to fecking sleep and we have to wait while the other catches up. Watching this thread with interest, need something new to watch myself...

    The Wire. Probably the best police series ever produced.

    Really worth persevering with. Probably my favourite overall as it has already stood the test of time.
