Excellent.

I tried ages ago to watch the first series from a mediocre rip and couldn't get into it; watching it on Blu-Ray really made a substantial difference, it's such a visually engaging show.

Just finished season 5, I think it was my favourite so far.

What a powerhouse of a show.

Season 5 is my favorite season!

A lot of folks will tell you the show took a step back during season six. I'm not one of those folks.

Having finally finished season 6 last night, nor am I.

Just incredible.

Was up to 6am last night watching season 6. With the exception of a couple of clunky episodes (the MLK episode was one) its pretty great. Will probably finish tonight.

I attempted to watch this show when the first season was on, but only got through a few eps before quitting on it. I finally revisited it last month, and binge watched the whole series. So good, can't believe I'd passed on it for so long. Looking forward to this one returning on Sunday.

Glad you're on board. It's definitely not an easy show to get "hooked" on compared to some of the other popular cable shows, but I would argue it is more rewarding.

:thumbsup: You're right, the long game is so much more rewarding with this show.

I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed Season 6, especially towards the end of it. There'd been dodgy episodes in Seasons 4 & 5 that made me think the show was really running out of steam.

The finale of season 6 (specifically the Hershey scene) is one of my favorite episodes.

Agreed, it was one of mine as well. It was just amazing how they could pull an episode like that off so far into the series. I guess they'd been saving these moments though.

I have no idea where these final 14 episodes are going.
