With the darker nights quickly creeping in I've been catching up on a lot of TV lately and just wondered what other people are watching, as well as recommending what I've been couching it to.
Just finished watching Season 4 of Whitechapel. Originally a series following a copycat Jack the Ripper serial killer, the series has grown superbly. Season 4 has been the most gruesome and grizzly of all with a supernatural element thrown in. Brilliant TV to catch up on if you've missed it.
I'm slowly working my way through Justified, currently half way through Season 2. It took me about five episodes to get hooked on this series as the first four didn't really define the show, but it really took shape from thereon in and really has a place in my heart now.
Timothy Olyphant makes it for me, I love him as an actor and he really makes the show tick, and Walton Goggins (The Shield, best TV show ever) is a touch of class.
I'm waiting with baited breath for Season 4 of The Walking Dead. Admittedly post-apocalyptic zombie infested survivor stories aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I've been reading Robert Kirkman's comic book series for years and the TV show is just as good. If you've got the stomach, give it a whirl.
Finally (for now) I'm nearly caught up on Hannibal. I've always been a big fan of Thomas Harris' work concerning Dr Lecter and Will Graham, and this show offers some insight into the events that took place between Hannibal Rising and Red Dragon, albeit slightly out of canon.
Again, it's another one not for the faint hearted, but if Anthony Hopkins got to you in any of the Hannibal trilogy then it's definitely worth a watch.
