Did you ever see 'How to Make it in America'? I loved that but it was cancelled after two series'. I think maybe Girls was the reason why, its quite similar but, but with more of a female outlook.

Such a great show. brilliant characters, and remarkably created, written, produced and directed by a 25yr old Lena Dunham. brilliant.
Seen the first 2 series. Any idea where I can watch the 3rd?
theyre all on the torrent sites. i think season 4 is imminent too. its so shit when youre up to date with stuff and have to wait a week between episodes!

Any sites in particular you'd recommend? I'm far too legal for that kind of thing.

Defo worth watching IMO, though I wouldn't use the word 'enjoyable'.

I watched the pilot of Almost Human with Karl Urban, enjoyable Blade Runner-esque sci fi.

Watched the first 2 episodes and was impressed with it, hope it doesn't go dull and stupid like other JJ Abrahams stuff.

The BAFTA's. OK .... nowt special but entertaining

Fascinated that the podium is glass, (so, seethrough) and has a gold BAFTA face which makes each announcer look like he has a gold sporran.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Ridiculous nonsense, like many such B movie sequels it just tries to outdo the first and ends up a complete mess.
