I don't know how anyone can put up with Banshee! God, it's such awful show. I gave up after the 4th episode of S1.

Right now, I am catching up on The Blacklist and POI
*The show has an original and manageable storyline.An ex-con becomes a sheriff in a small town.The acting and writing is brillant.
*The fight scenes are close to real.
*The sëx scenes are perfect; pretty ladies with perky boöbs and nice bütts. tongue grin
*Lucas Hood gets all the ladies. Oh Yes! All of them. grin

If you love Ray Donovan,You will love Banshee.The lead actors have the same style.

Patiently waiting for Season 3! cool

SPOILERS ALERT!!! DON'T READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED SONS OF ANARCHY.

There are episodes of TV that make you cry, and then there are episodes of TV that make you feel as if you’ve been physically wounded. Sons Of Anarchy's 7th Season's “Red Rose” is the latter.

It lingers and leaves you depressed. Why? Because it’s not just about the body count of Tully stabbing Juice repeatedly in the throat, Jax putting a bullet in Unser’s chest, and Jax shooting Gemma in the head. It’s about those moments beforehand. The exquisite and excruciating buildup of dialogue that will make you tear up when you repeat it:

-“Just wait until I finish my pie.” “This is all I got left.” - Juice.
-“It’s okay. My baby boy. It’s time. I’m ready.” - Gemma

It’s also, for many, about the realization that Jax is preparing to die. Sage Nero has told us there’s no recovering from killing your mother (even if she gave you permission?). And killing Unser may be unforgivable (even if Jax begged him to leave?). So is there any hope for Jax at this point? Should there be?

SPOILERS ALERT!!! DON'T READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED HOMELAND.

This season, Homeland has been something that has eluded it for its past seasons: brave. It has not been afraid to quickly dispense of recognizable actors (Corey Stoll as Sandy Bachman) or even completely change the game (like the interlude with Aayan, which seemed like it would span and define the season, but ended up being just a footnote). It let Carrie go full crazy, but then reined her in so far that she’s actually agreeing with Lockhart about evacuating. And in “13 Hours in Islamabad,” tragically, Fara was killed by Haqqani.

The scenes in the embassy were Homeland ‘s version of Benghazi, but with 36 fatalities, and we were shown just about every single one. The attack on the embassy carried a lot more weight than the bomb at the CIA, because it felt much more personal, almost claustrophobic.

While Saul and Carrie being fired on out in the square by snipers after the convoy attack felt militaristic (particularly because of the Marine’s presence there), Haqqani and his men taking over the embassy was something different. It evoked news reports of office shootings, or other sudden, horrific bursts of close range, large-scale violence. Though those working for the CIA and the embassy knew, on some level, their lives were always on the line, few surely envisioned such a catastrophic event.

Never was this more finely portrayed than in Martha and Lockhart’s struggle in the vault. She says they’re at war, and casualties will happen (there are protocols, after all). Lockhart says, quite literally, “fvck that,” and was ready to give himself and all of the CIA’s assets up to protect Fara and the remaining hostages. There wasn’t a right answer, here, just like when Carrie lamented to Quinn that both saving Saul and letting Saul die were the wrong choices.

Martha was right that Lockhart was putting them all in danger by handing over the documents, and yet, how could they stand there and do nothing? Even though Quinn appeared at just the right time to wound Haqqani and take out several of his men, it was too late for Fara. She bled out from stab wounds Haqqani administered before Quinn shot him (though not fatally, for him). It was bold choice (Fara is not only a really likable, but a very useful character), and the show hardly had time to mourn before the next battle began to be waged.

Saul, Lockhart and Martha (and her cowardly, loathsome, dirtbag, maggot husband Dennis) all went back to the U.S., which, as Carrie agrees, is the right choice.

But Quinn, crazy with purpose, will not leave until Haqqani is delivered. For that, he did a little badâss stealth work, and found our old foe Farhad.
Through him, he plans to use a chain of cell phones to get to Haqqani. Though Carrie tried to get him to not go rogue on this, he went out a window and did it anyway, and she believes he deserves to be brought home (along with their assets, if possible, although that operation has essentially been shut down).

Now, the hunt is for Quinn, and probably Haqqani in these last two episodes, and with only Carrie and Quinn on the job, it’s going to be bananarama badáss.

Same question here too. I watched just episode 1 of season 1 of Revenge and I lost Interest. Maybe because I was watching Fringe that same time and I wanted something more intriguing....maybe I'll consider later anyway.

Claire Danes has and always will be the star of the Showtime drama as Carrie Mathison, but calling her the best female character on TV ever is one heck of an overstatement. Calling up the past and present best female leads, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to make the top 10 even on her best day. "The Good Wife's" Julianne Margulies is one the greats. Claire Danes is still a newbie.

the series was quite interesting in the first and second season but the writers lost it in the third season and they are trying to bring back the intensity in the fourth season. I just want to see how it all end cos it seems season 4 will be the last...

I agree with you on Claire, she is the best actress in the present showtime series but never in the same league with Julianne cos she is the only reason am still watching the good wife

Personally, forever is awesome, brilliant, more like Sherlock Holmes but different with unique ideas. Just E eleven episode. The lead character is charming. Give it a try
