    Love/Hate was brilliant I thought. Kicked on from a rocky enough first season to genuinely must-see television. Some of the casting was a little off but overall it was slick and I loved it.

    Love/Hate

    I know, it's on my list. Is that enough reason to vote for it? ;)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,461 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Chalk me down for a vote for Love/Hate too.

    Really was gripping TV which is surprising for *cough* RTE.

    Never could get into MASH rather strangely.

    Walking Dead, always a sucker for Zombie themed stuff. Love post apocalypse vibes and narratives

    I was just thinking about this the other day and I decided I really love post apocalyptic narratives. End of the world drama, epidemics and extreme climate change. All that jazz. An imagining of what our world could become or how quickly we'd all turn on each other if the sh!t hit the fan.

    If you have any recommendations for movies or anything please share!

  • Registered Users Posts: 8,952 ✭✭✭duffman13


    Love Hate, it's probably one of the greatest Irish tv shows and was brilliant. It became a talking point everywhere.

    UTOPIA

    This is why I'm here! It's my favourite ever programme. I'm rewatching it now, as a result of this competition, and it's every bit as perfect as I remember

    If you haven't seen it, well...

    tumblr_ns4wqiYFGN1qbxa5so4_500.gifv

    And just to rehash what I said before...
    OK, serious campaigning. Not many saw it the first time round I don't think, but I want to ring a bell for what a genuinely think is the best thing I've ever watched...

    UTOPIA

    Like nothing else in style. Dark, funny, horrifically violent and shocking at times, it was brilliant

    Emmy for Best International Drama, 2014

    David Fincher was going to remake it for HBO but it fell through, now Gillian Flynn is due to remake it for Amazon

    The Guardian say "Channel 4 haven’t managed to match the uniqueness of Utopia’s pitch-black comedy and intrigue since"



    And if that's not enough, the daily mail gave it zero stars saying "As television, it is beneath contempt. Anyone who watched this dross and was taken in by it should be ashamed of themselves" :p
