I think it was always going to be a very different show to Homeland, so it's a tad unfair to compare it. The first season of Homeland was great as well, so it's not a shame not matching up. I've started it now, so I'll watch until the end of the season at least, but that last episode just made me laugh to be honest. I've always expected the show to be a bit of a stretch, but come on. Warning! The following content is NOT WORK SAFE. Click the Show button to reveal. How many fucking Followers has he got? He should have had about 3/4 to make the show tight and suspenseful. Off the top of my head he's had the two gays and the nanny, the married couple, the guy who took his wife, the guy Bacon shot dead at the farmhouse, the two fellas who took out the swat team and there is at least one more they have been talking to on the phone. Oh, and that policewoman. That's 11 people, with more to come no doubt. Shit, forgot that guard at the prison, so 12. As well as the fact that two of them are capable of taking out four member of a swat team, it's more than a little silly now. But I will stick with it.

I think Breaking Bad can be spoken of alongside The Wire, The Sopranos, Battlestar Gallactica, The Shield etc.. I'm not saying it's as good as all of them, but it's in the same ballpark. Sons is probably the most enjoyable programme for me at the minute. I'd rather watch that than any other, but I don't think it's the best. Some of it is quite formulaic, for example: Warning! The following content is NOT WORK SAFE. Click the Show button to reveal. In season two when they go up to that cabin or wherever it was and have a fight, the sons and Henry Rollins crew, ten on ten and every single one of the sons batters their opposite. A few small things like that stop it being as good as the others. I still love it, though. I think Boardwalk Empire, can be an amazing show if they get the next season or two right. The rise of Capone and Luciano will be immense if done correctly. I'd say the last season of Boardwalk was on another level to the Sons, so a few more series of that calibre and it'l be right up there for me. Game of thrones is an ace show. My problem with it is I've read all the books, so while I enjoy the show there isn't any suspense there for me as I know what's going to happen.

It'll be sad when it ends, there isn't another show of that quality out there. Maybe Boardwalk Empire if the new season is as good as the last.

Mama. Absolutely fucking shit. Waste of money, fucking £8.60 each for the tickets in the Odeon, might as well have just threw it down the drain. 2/10.

There are always arguments going on about his literary credentials, and there are tons of his books I haven't read, so I can't say what would be the best fit for you with any certainty, but I'd recommend either The Stand or the aforementioned Different Seasons. I think most people regard The Stand as his magnum opus and Different Seasons is a great book. I still haven't got round to reading The Dark Tower series yet, but they are very highly rated and as a fan of fantasy that might be more to your liking.

I'm going to be pretty much the same, most King books I read 10+ years ago, so it'll be good reading them again. I have only got about 7 King books on my shelves which has surprised me, though I haven't read at least half of his books at all. I've just ordered this off eBay, seems a really good price, £39.99 with free postage. 44 Books Collection TITLES: The Green Mile The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon Thinner Salem's Lot Skeleton Crew Pet Semetary The Regulators The Eyes of the Dragon The Shining Rose Madder Hearts in Atalantis From a Buick 8 The Stand The Tommyknockers The Talisman (with Peter Straub) The Mist The Dark Half The Dead Zone Lisey's Story Dreamcatcher Danse Macabre Dolores Claiborne Bag of Bones Black House (with Peter Straub) It Christine Cujo Just After Sunset Under the Dome Duma Key Different Seasons Blaze Carrie Misery Desperation Insomnia Everything's Eventual Firestarter Gerald's Game Cell Nightmares and Dreamscapes Needful Things Full Dark, No Stars - HARDBACK 2010 1st Edition The Stephen King Companion edited by George Beahm

We'll agree there then! I'll concede that there are times of course when you're having a bad day and you just can't help but take it out on someone, but that should be the exception and not the norm. That's why I picked bar staff in expensive bars up in my OP, they are consistently rude are ignorant, it's like a prerequisite for the job. Where do people stand on bouncers in exclusive clubs etc...? I realise that can be a hard job, but fuck me, some of them are amongst the most arrogant people I've ever come across.
