Finally... I could give u a hug for this season wey u call so...

Better person! Where av u been all this while na?

I can't wait for season 5 of Sherlock to come out.. Love how it draws the viewer into each plot and makes u feel like u are part of Sherlock's investigative team..

But while i wait, GOT and Power would do for the meantime..

My favorite character in GOT is the faceless man..
It might be a looong wait o. Sherlock and Watson have joined the Marvel universe, they might be too busy for Sherlock now .

who's watching ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK Mad series except for the lesbo part. It's just suspense filled. Just finished season 5 on Netflix

If only the other Seasons of 'Orange is the new black' were as dope as the Season 5 it would have been up there with the 24's and GOT of this world.

I usually don't watch series. They consume a lot of time and usually get boring along the line. I realized at some point that I had not watched a single tv series from the beginning till the end, not even Merlin or Breaking bad that I loved so much from the first season.

But...Game of Thrones is different.

I love the plot, story telling, visual effects, and the characters. Even the sound tracks (especially light of the seven).
The producers didn't spare any costs. I know for a fact that it will be the first tv series that I will watch from beginning till the very end. And the final season won't be out till probably 2019. But I shall wait.

And yes, winter is coming...

who told you, the final season started two weeks ago and will end come August.

After watching the first season of game of thrones.i made it a habit not to believe everything i read on the internet.the way dem hype this film ehn

what do you want in a tvseries?, is it the actions? or is the storyline too complex for your understanding?

from the crazy world and thrilling storylines to the complex wave of political alliances and betrayals, to the human and inhuman side of people,

from the different locations, different characters

its not a battle between good and evil

but a battle about how human beings can change from good to bad and from bad to good depending on the situation, also unexpected deaths

a story that dwells on the complexity of power and the illusion of those that are being ruled upon

from the CGI, to costumes, props, locations, cinematography, exquisite acting, special effects make up and so on

capturing all this in a motion picture year in year out and maintaining that same high level of quality is no mean fit

thousands of hours of hardwork to produce what we watch

It's a sin to take it all for granted

its too classic

GAME OF THRONES IS THE BEST TV SERIES EVER MADE.

If you have seen the novel you wouldn't have come to that lame conclusion. Even Seun is an addict.

The film is actually not hyped. It has a great storyline
With an amazing cast, great reviews.
Box office records, and high budget.

Just say it's not your type of series.

Like me, I prefer watching comic series like Big Bang theory, 2 broke girls, Scrubs, How I met your mother,Modern family , New girl , Shameless, Devious maids, Everybody hates Chris, 2 and half men, friends, last man on earth
I have watched them all, lol.



This list is not complete without 'parks and recreation'

Best comedy TV shows ever.....


1. Parks and Recreation
2. New Girl
3. Modern Family
4. Friends
5. Black-ish

deadwood

these aforementioned movies are master class ,I purposely didn't see Game of thrones. (let me say I purposely skipped it cause of the frenzy around it though I know its going to be a master class, I can just deal with such a complex movie spanning up to 8th season mehn I can't)

all the series up there are tested trusted guaranteed for education, Class, intellectualism history epic sex politics intrigues betrayals and all form of twist
I have breaking bad from season one to five on my laptop but I couldn't watch past episode one and two of season one. It isn't interesting at all to me but putting it among those top notch series, I'm beginning to wonder if I downloaded the right film. I downloaded from o2tvseries and the episodes are mini episodes

I also love a little bit of action/thriller , and series like Breaking Bad, Prison Break, Empire, Lost, Nikita, Better call Saul, Blacklist, Blacklist redemption, 24, 24-Legacy, Lethal weapon, OZ, Blindspot, Power, How to get away with murder, Walking Dead etc does it for me..

On very rare occasions, I may want some bit of epic/mystery/Sci-fiction series, I watch Arrows, Game of Thrones, American gods, Gotham, person of interest, limitless

Mehn, I don watch series oo, I have even forgotten some.

@bolded only breaking bad is at per to Game of thrones in terms of rating judging by the 3 high ranked critics

Truth be told, action series 24, prison break, Blacklist, Homeland, steike back etc) get lesser ratings from critics like IMDb, tv.com, rotten tomatoes, and that is based on lot of characteristics (such as casts, plots, dialogue, effects, customes, themes, storyline etc). .. besides Breaking Bad, Oz, the Wire, Narcos, Walking dead are actually lovely series. ...
it's this kind of comment that made me download breaking bad from season one to five in one night but after watching episode one and two, I was greatly disappointed

So just because we love TV and movies too and we enjoy trolling the people that share this our guilty pleasure, let's kuku run through the top 5 TV series that we Nigerians love to overhype. Starting for the king of them:

1. Game of Thrones

We know anything other than profound praise is taken as sacrilege when it comes to Game of Thrones. So before you come for my head, hear me out first.

Game of thrones recently dominated the screens and social media. Nigerians are downloading pirated copies and sharing with their friends. Everyone is talking about winter. Winter is coming they say. First of all, the rave was about the Lannisters, then Jon snow and now Arya Stark or is it Tyrion the dwarf. Ah, let us not forget about Daenerys mother of dragons. After crying about the loss of one character, we always find a way to latch onto another. It is not surprising therefore that for the past two weeks, almost everyone is talking about the 7th season of GOT. Banners, graphics, and even memes are trolling the internet. It got so bad that even haters took to twitter to boast on how they had not watched a single episode. But abeg who that one epp? What is it about GOT that is making people stay so faithful?

Some movies are Overly Overrated.

Game of thrones is actually interesting.

I like the fact that anybody can die in the series

The audience tends to have different favorite characters in the series.

My favorite character in game of thrones is Petyr Baelish.. Aka little finger



Modified :Narcos too is wonderful. .. The series is about the story of Pablo Escobar... . It's quite a conflicting series because your mind will be divided whether to like or hate Pablo Escobar. .. Dude was a philanthropist but he killed too many people along the line
Finally Someone who understands d ingenuity of Littlefinger...grin

Sansa epitomizes most women in their initial/teenage beginning. She was first obsessed with fairytale kind of life/Princess and prince thing. She got heart broken, abused, exploited and humiliated. But she subsequently learnt her lessons, and learnt the game, after suffering in the hands of the masters. Only she seem to understand the enormity and abilities of cersi. Please cut her some slack, I too initially disliked her, she was like black sheep amongst the well groomed stark kids. Presently even snow is naive in the games of power/throne compared to sasi, she saved snow and helped reclaim the north. She is presently trying to make snow not to underestimate cerci. Great plot, great story line.
Snow on the other hand has seen it all!!..dat dude went through hell and back, he doesnt underestimate his enemies, but instead learn to accomodate..... The imminent war with the White walkers i would say is bigger than that of cerci.

I dont really fancy series/movies that are overhyped, I guess that's the reason......
I never watched past Game of Thrones, Season 1, Episode 1. I couldn't deal!

.


But the only series, I have watched, and rewatched over and over again, 3 times now, is 24 Hours. From Season 1 to 9.
I love that series so much. Maybe because it's my kind of thing. I've learnt so much from that series.

Been so busy lately, else would continue where I stopped. Someone asked if you have 1hour extra a day, what would do? I said I'd sleep or watch 24. That's how much, I'm in sync with that series.

.... Game of thrones is ma most favorite series Bt Jack Bauer.!!!is ma all tym favorite on-screen xter..grin...
