Rate West Wing highly.

Interesting to hear. From what I've seen so far, it comes across a bit schmaltzy in places. I was hoping it would resemble something closer to 'House of Cards' in terms of political machinations and less like a melodrama about political staffers. That said, the writing is great, and the characters are mostly engaging. The soundtrack, on the other hand, is covered in syrup and sounds like a B-side from an episode of 'Murder She Wrote.'


I like House of Cards as well

Yes, me too (without the hashtag), although the second to last season fell away a bit, and I avoided the final one without Spacey.

I was a West Wing fan back in the day! Used to come on before Renegade which is also a fav of mine :lol:

Just reached the end of season two of ‘The West Wing’, and I must says its really hit its stride. Some really well crafted telly drama, even though its storytelling format has aged somewhat.

Also found the time to start watching ‘30 Rock.’ Glad I did, bloody funny stuff.

Just watch the Dont **** With Cats documentary series.

Really good watch and crazy to think how what looked to be a 'minor' case escalated to a world wide hunt.

Also crazy to see how easy it is for the 'average punter' to track and trace a persons location, details etc.

It’s still interesting
I’m into Episode 5
It would appear he is the prophet for all 3 middle eastern religions & is performing miracles. (Dallas Cowboys are looking for a new coach)
If you don’t know but loosely speaking: Judaism, Christianity & Islam all barrack for the same God. It’s just the prophets who differ.
The CIA and Shin Bet are trying to work out what he’s up to.
I don’t think it’s for everyone but I like this Middle East stuff.
I’m sticking with it. There are 10 episodes in Season 1. I hope it starts getting to some reasoning and doesn’t just crawl along to another series

Agreed. First couple of seasons are really good, haven't had a chance to check out the latest yet.

Bloody stupid question I know so apologies in advance. We're about to piss off Foxtel and get Netflix. Is it easy to set up? What do you need to do to set it up? We have just purchased a pretty flash brand new TV with the netflix on it so I gather that will make it easier? That gets delivered tomorrow.
