dexter is from showtime, mate!

Frostyzone: Whoops! Just realized my mistake. You were right. It's showtime. I missed it up with another HBO show he played the protagonist, 6 feet under! But Damn, those two premium channels have a lot in common with the similarity of the productions they are churning out.

dl_jbd: Please Ooo...how can I download from this project TV site?

Akanniade: ^^
I beg to differ, The Wire trumps them all.

django1: Just went to booksellers in IB, they don't have the book. Pity!

Seun: @Ignatio
Don't read the books until at least the end of the current season or the next one. I'm saying this out of concern for your happiness. If you watch the tv series first, you will enjoy it a lot and your enjoyment of the books will be increased when you get to them because you'll have images to go with the words and because the book is so much more enjoyable. It will be like having a double orgasm. However, if you read the books first, you won't enjoy the series as much because the series will inevitably be dull compared to the images formed in your mind while reading the books. Moreso, the author of the books is a very slow writer. It could take him 5 - 10 years to release the next book. So there's no reason to rush to the books yet. You will have plenty of time for it after the series. If you must read the books, try to stop at book 2. Book 3 is the best one, so you would want to experience it on tv, this season and the next. Books 4 and 5 are quite dull. So please, pace yourselves!

Frostyzone:

What?! I have been watching dexter since it's inception and the first sign that appears before every episode is the HBO logo materializing from a grainy screen.

Check again dude, and realize your mistake.

coogar:

you actually forgot the greatest tv show on HBO....there's no show like oz!

Akanniade: I beg to differ, The Wire trumps them all

engineerd:

NOPE....HE IS RIGHT..... DEXTER is a SHOWTIME series.....

Tayo2k7:

Well said, I read the books first, and it made the film not so interesting for me, I even picked a few mistakes in the plot of the movies Series but all the same, which ever you can lay your hands upon first, be it the book or the movie am sure it will make your time and money worthwhile

Frostyzone:

It's HBO. When you talk about this premium cable network, be rest assured that they don't carter for kids but for mature audience.

Some of their popular Tv series past and present are as follows;

Game of Thrones.

Treme

Six feet Under

The sopranos

Dead Wood

True Blood

Rome

Etc

Frostyzone:

Oz was great, but it paled in comparison to Fox's Prison break.




OMG! How could I had forgotten The wire? One of the most realistic cop vs criminals drama of all time! Hate how they murdered the nephew of Avon Barksdale though. I think Idriss Elba was fantastic in that series, as well as the protagonist Dominic West.

But as for saying it's the greatest show on tv...uh huh. There are better cop shows on tv nowadays like Blue bloods, Southland and the best of them all IMO, The Shield.

But to be fair it's somewhere in the top 5 of the greatest ever cop shows on tv.

Seun: If you can avoid reading the books until the end of this season or the next one, it may be better to do so. The show is far more interesting if you don't know what's going to happen in each episode.

Frostyzone:

Season one was epic, but season two started to deviate from the real story which is terrorism into a love story, which really pissed me off. I'm not even sure that I will bother watching season 3 whenever they start doing the shootings.

As for the best series ever it's still Game of Thrones and followed closely by Breaking Bad.

SIR cum a lot:
funny I didn't notice any deviation or any serious character that was cut from the series though I read the 1st three books a while ago.

Frostyzone:

coogar:

ask seun to hide this post for you....
comparing oz to prison break is like comparing jose mourinho to stephen keshi. michael schofield or teabag wouldn't last a day in oswald penn. oz is more than a TV show.....

Tayo2k7:

U can order for it from

kunle fox: Oz was great...totally! Since I watched it,I knew prison break was just more publicity compared to OZ..
And above OZ is "The wire"..different story though but definitely best quality (in my books). Best show ever.
Game of thrones, Breaking bad are the best shows around now though

Frostyzone:
Oswald Penn ko? You seem to have forgotten about Sona in prison break season 3 where anything goes. Where you can only stay alive if you are strong or smart enough.

Oz was a great show like I said before, but it wasn't as addictive and entrailing like Prison break. It may have more character development more than the later, but pales in plots and story line.

Saying that Oz is better than Prison Break is tantamount to saying that Spartacus is better than Game of Thrones, and we both know that ain't so.

coogar:

sona my white butt!
how many prisoners died in sona? how many psychopaths were in sona? how many prisoners got crucified? was there any incident in sona where a prisoner got his face defecated on? prison break is a fantasy show - it does not express the realities of prison where gangs and groups operate like mafiosos.

coogar:
it's too addictive - i have all the 6 seasons and i watch them time after time. some of the quotes on it would make shakespeare or churchill green with envy.

coogar:
spartacus is better than game of thrones - oz is light years above prison break.
like i said, oz is more than a TV show, it's a ground-breaking idea in the world of television shows. whoever wrote prison break had oz in mind and copied some of the ideas on oz.
