Walking dead has returned, and it returned with a bang. Won't spoil it but its an all action return from the mid season break.

Thanks for the heads up. Will watch it this week. 

Did notice quite a few series are returning in the next week. Blacklist started again a few weeks ago in the US and is moving along nicely.

They are coming thick and fast now. Started in the last week ...

The Walking Dead
Better Call Saul series 2.
Vikings Series 4

With more starting in the next few weeks.

Also 'Mad Dogs' is on Amazon Prime. US remake. Might take a look as the UK version promised so much but ended up a bit disappointing.

Bosch Series 2 (entire series / 10 eps) now on Amazon Prime. I think it's a bit of an underrated gem. Watch S1 first, but both series are bettter than a lot thats out there. Has been reviewed earlier, but this is the link:

Jack Irish. 

It's a series that started with three TV films. Two in 2012, one in 2014 and now a full series of 1 hour episodes in 2016. I really like it. Good characters, well written and Guy Pearce suits the lead very well. Ideally you want to watch them in order as you have a full understanding of the characters and their relationships. 

First two films.

Bad Debts.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2087820/

Quote:A former criminal lawyer is getting his life back together and now spends his days as a part-time investigator, debt collector, apprentice cabinet maker, punter and finding those who don't want to be found - dead or alive. When an ex-client wants his help, he lets it pass away. But then this guy turns up dead which forces him back into the ominous past he thought he left for good.

Black Tide

Quote:Jack Irish has no shortage of friends, but family members are few and far between. His wife was murdered by an ex-client and his father is a fading photo on the pubs football wall of fame. So when Des Connors, the last link to his dad, calls to ask for help in the matter of a missing son, Jack is more than happy to lend a hand. But sometimes prodigal sons go missing for a reason... As Jack begins to dig, he discovers that Gary Connors was a man with something to hide, and his friends are people with yet darker and even more deadly secrets.



Season 2 - Dead Point (One Episode only).

Quote:After a high profile judge commissions Jack Irish to try and find a mysterious red book, he finds himself involved in a world of sexy club owners, drug dealers and deranged killers.

Season 3 (2016 - so running now) 

https://trakt.tv/shows/jack-irish/seasons/3

Quote:Jack Irish is a man getting his life back together again. A former criminal lawyer whose world imploded, he now spends his days as a part-time investigator, debt collector, apprentice cabinet maker, punter and sometime lover. Jack finds himself staring down the barrel of a brand new case, but something goes awry and Jack ends up framed for murder. While it seems it is curtains for Jack, an alibi turns up out of the blue. 

It really is very good and well worth a watch.

Quote:A teacher discovers a time portal that leads to October 21st, 1960 and goes on a quest to try and prevent the assassination of John F. Kennedy, which is complicated by the presence of Lee Harvey Oswald and the fact that he's falling in love with the past itself.

Very good series. Well written, perfect cast and visually great to watch. For once IMDb score of 8.9 is well deserved.

Oh, and House of Cards Series 4 (the entire 13 episodes) is out on Netflix. It's been reviewed before. Excellent series and this series 4 is just as good.

Banshee series 4 has started, lot of flash backs going on as it's 17 months on from the end of series 3 looking like a good storyline so far though.
