S2 was the high water mark for me. S3 has some amazing episodes but s2 works as an entire thing rather than a collection of good episodes.
Things about s3 don't make sense in regards to s2 but i'll leave it at that. You will know what i'm on about after end of s2.

Also i'll back up what has been said about True detective. Incredible mix of modern detective show with elements of pulp crime novels. Pays great homage to Robert Chambers KING IN YELLOW.

The KING IN YELLOW homage was a nice touch for me as I had only finished reading the book a few weeks ago. Fans of weird fiction should check it out.

That's a great price. I'd finished watching it last night (I rented it from Lovefilm so watched it over three nights) and thought it was brilliant TV. It seems to have touches on the X-Files, Millennium and even Twin Peaks, but stands on its own as a terrific miniseries.

Very, very good and £12 is an absolute steal. I only just finished it myself and already want to watch it again. I love the pace of it, really pulls you in.

The Beach Boys: Live at Knebworth from 1980. Great live concert featuring amazing songs and amazing vocal harmonies. Watched this when I got home from my local last night. Sad that they lost Dennis and Carl Wilson some three and eighteen years later respectively, but that's life I suppose. Great band, love their sound and their songs

Watched true detective over last two nights as good as everyone said, had me gripped from beginning to end. Harrelson and McConaughey are both fantastic.

Was going to watch something from the 80s on Netflix but went a little further back and decided to watch the Rockford files last time I saw this is when I was a little kid, do remember it was one of my fathers favourite shows, all I can remember is the theme tune.
