Southland

Is there a thread for this yet? Just saw an ad on More4 and it started last week.

Billed as grittiest cop show since The Wire - big shoes to fill! I've set Sky Plus but will have to find Ep1 on the net.

The brief preview looked pretty good. Anyone been watching it from the states?

Yeah I caught the first one on 4OD yesterday and enjoyed it. It's fairly gory but does leave extreme sights to the imagination... like the dangling fingers

So are we sticking with this? I've been away for a while so just caught up on 4 episodes on Sky Plus, now up to date. I reckon it's compelling, really enjoying it.

[hornetrider]

Bumpity. Forgot a new series has started so I've spammed my Sky plus but not sure where we are in the 3rd series - can anyone confirm?

[hornetrider]

Actually, I'll answer my own question cos its Channel 4 and they have them on 4OD

Looks like they are up to Episode 4 and my evening is now SORTED

It's all on 4OD.

I didnt know there had been a season 2 so when i saw episode 2 on telly i was a bit confused. Caught up with series 3. Bit of sad end to last episode.

PRetty god cop drama. seems almost real.

S1&S2 were shown back to back I think, like one long series.

This is one of the best things on TV at the mo for me, along with Boardwalk Empire.

After the rooftop fight - the perp - that actually looked real!

Apparently Southland has been dropped. Sad.

Joins Mongrels and Zen on the altar of completely baffling decisions!
