Did anyone else settle down to watch this last night?

Here is the wiki link for anyone interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underbelly_%28TV_series%29

Quick cut'n'paste from wikipedia for those interested: Underbelly is a 13-part Australian television mini-series that retells the real events of the 1995–2004 gangland war in Melbourne, and is the first series in the larger Underbelly Franchise.

It was entertaining but don't expect The Sopranos.

Saw it when it previous aired. It's a good show, made more interesting as it covers real events (and people).

It was on last night at 9pm on FX. Watched it today, wasn't that impressed, but will hang onto the series link as there doesn't seem to be too much else out at the moment.

Did anyone else catch the MK V Astra?. Pretty sure those weren't around in 1995. hehe

Romanzo was excellent, and I am hoping "Mesrine" they are advertising will be good, but the planner is looking quite bare.

Sky Atlantic is OK for background telly. Nothing on there that really grabs me...well nothing I haven't already seen ages ago.

Romanzo Criminale cloud9 some of the best tv I've seen for a long time (well since Mildred Pierce anyway) anyway I've got it series linked, had a bit of a read of the plot synopsis on wiki and it does come across as a bit convoluted though. Suppose that is a side effect of having to fit so much in.

Sky Atlantic is purely filler now that Boardwalk is done and dusted, Game of Thrones and Mad Men cannot hit our screens quick enough.
