Shit! Season 2 of Broadchurch should be number 2 on this list.turned2black wrote:Biggest disappointments of 2015:
1. True Desucktive (UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
2. The Muppets (I'm happy it's back, but it's not nearly as good as it was.)
3. Orange is the New Black (Season 3 was a chore and Piper remains the most annoying character on TV.)

Re: Best television of 2015
I forgot to mention Olive Kitteridge, which was maybe the actual best (non-Mad Men) thing to happen on TV this year.
Please consider voting for me

Re: Best television of 2015
I downloaded the torrents as soon as they became available. They were 720p quality and had hard-coded (no SRTs) English subtitles. Netflix will probably add Season 2 in the next couple of months.bodysnatcher wrote:anyone know where I might be able to watch Les Revenants Season 2?
If you go the torrent/streaming route, make sure to get the Canal+ version, pretty sure Sundance Channel edited episodes for time.

I lost interest in that one...is it good?bodysnatcher wrote:anyone know where I might be able to watch Les Revenants Season 2?
I would say Hannibal, Jessica Jones, Mr Robot, Ash vs Evil Dead, Wet Hot American Summer and Better Caul Saul were flawless.
BONE FUCKIN´ TOMAHAWK.
