Cool.. I haven't seen any of those... and they're all available on demand are they? Which ones would you recommend? and which ones are most like Oz? Some association in the back of my mind is telling me that the wire might be but I'm not sure.
You... Haven't... Seen... Game of Thrones.

I can see that cos that's what I was asking Gemini about a couple of pages ago
It was only relatively recently (in a Mafia game I think) that I realised it wasn't quite what I thought it was. I thought it would just be something like a Hollywood modern 'epic'... you know... pick a period and there's a film for it... Troy... Alexander etc. All basically the same. So I admit I was a bit confused why GoT was the talk of the town. But then seeing a clip or two realised it was a lot more involved (and less stereotypical) than one of those films. But I can't remember how now. Remind me

Don't forget Steely that I basically live in a time warp  I'm only just catching up with the concept of streaming, and I'm like that with everything. I was several years late in switching from VHS to DVD too. So whatever you think is hot tech now will be hot tech to me in a few years

Been admitted to the hospital after I lost my balance at home and fell. Been dizzy all day. They're going to keep me over night at least. I don't think it's serious but what do I know?

Pfft, everyone knows the Sopranos was the greatest.
I agree about that. GoT is great but these are two very different shows anyway.
