airdrieman Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Bought the box - set a few months ago and have been watching it. Just finished Series 4 and I must say, it's brilliant! Anyone else a fan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Massive fan - best ever show imo. I think there's already a thread for it though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I really enjoyed it at first but got a bit tired of how cloying and glib it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugster Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 It is the best television show ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runstop Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Seasons 1+2 are some of the best TV ever made, 3+4 dip a bit but are still great, 5+6 are not so great and I've still to see S7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I really enjoyed it at first but got a bit tired of how cloying and glib it was. The 'Sorkinisms' in the dialogue really grate after a while. Seasons 1+2 are some of the best TV ever made, 3+4 dip a bit but are still great, 5+6 are not so great and I've still to see S7. Season 7 is pretty good, a total departure, almost a different show with some character cross overs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biscuits Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Just started watching this on Netflix. Only up to episode 6 but hooked already. Martin Sheen is brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Just started watching this on Netflix. Only up to episode 6 but hooked already. Martin Sheen is brilliant. Biscuits I'm pretty jealous. I only saw it 4 or 5 years ago but it is easily my favourite all time show. Like any series of this length there are a few dips but the character development is tremendous and as it approaches the end of a season it becomes unmissable. Enjoy.

Biscuits Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Just started on season 2. It's getting better and better. Band of brothers is in danger of being knocked off my no 1 spot.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Been meaning to watch this, I liked House of Cards and Borgen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I watched seasons 6 & 7 recently because of the US election coming up. Still love the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabGaz Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I've just started watching this on Sky on demand and absolutely loving it. There can't be too many programmes where none of the main characters annoy me but this is certainly one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Psychosis Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Despite going downhill a bit towards the end it's still the best show ever. Season 2 is just incredible. The only thing I don't like about it is that it makes me annoyed that real life politicians aren't as smart. Even the "baddies" in it are intelligent.

Boostin' Kev Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Been meaning to get round to watching some of his programmes. Started TWW today and will watch The Newsroom with my girlfriend to see if it's something we'll both like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite show of all time.Two Cathedrals is perfect television. Despite going downhill a bit towards the end it's still the best show ever. Season 2 is just incredible. The only thing I don't like about it is that it makes me annoyed that real life politicians aren't as smart. Even the "baddies" in it are intelligent. Agreed. Arnie Vinick is the soundest Republican. If only he was real. Got Borgen over Christmas but haven't found time to watch it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I'm about 12 episodes into series one and enjoying it. Borgen is very good quite different though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Psychosis Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Was on youtube last night and a scene from the West Wing came up as one of the "suggested videos". Three hours later I was still there watching clip after clip. What a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 For some reason I started on Newsroom after watching season 1 of TWW. Bad move, I'm halfway through the season and can't really be bothered finishing it tbh. Might just go onto season 2 of TWW. Are Sorken's other shows funnier and less corny than Newsroom?
