Went throught he whole of Series 2 of GOT over Easter, just the third series to go now as Series 4 still showing on Sky so may have to wait for the DVD

Next up I reckon for me will be Mad Men-loved the first 4 series whilst they were still showing it on the Beeb, I heard that it was a bit patchy after that but Season 7 is supposed to be back to the earlier standard.

Getting towards the end of series 2 of Breaking Bad. Better than series 1 (which was still pretty good) and shows good potential for the future.

Dave, it just gets better and better, I will probably watch it all over again later this year :D

I got the Mad Men, Series 1-6 box set and am into series 2 already.

I watched Series 1-4 when it originally aired on BBC 4 so none of it is new to me yet, however still enjoying it :wink:

Orange is the new Black. Kind of weird but well worth watching. Some nudity and filth though not as much as GOT.

Giles, I just checked the review for Orange is the New Black and it does sound good.

I will wait for the DVD to come out :wink:

Into Season 4 of Mad Men so going over what I saw on TV around 4 years ago, Seasons 5-6 and of course 7 will be new to me.

Finished series 2 of Breaking Bad and it definitely stepped up a gear and the intrigue. Waiting for series 3 to arrive sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Watched the first part of Penny Dreadful last night (which ultimately will become a box set) and it appears to have good potential.
