First season was by far my favorite. Such complex characters, so imperfect but believable. A perfect, dark, drama.

And Broad Church - same! I watched the first 2-3 episodes trying to get into it, then went months without watching before picking it back up again. Once it hooked me I was obsessed. Sad story, but such brilliant performances. And stunning scenery.

You have excellent taste!

FINALLY someone that knows "The Killing". :) Such a brilliant show, so complex. I, too, couldn't believe no-one else has seen it.

Broad Church did take a couple of episodes to find its rhythm, but then I loved it. And that soundtrack??? Beautiful !!!!

You should watch "The Fall" You would probably like it, another dark and complex crime/murder show :)

The Killing Season 1 & 2 I liked... didn't like the seasons following, though. First two seasons you almost felt what the family was going through with the missing girl.

Top 5 TV Series (in this order, best on top)
1. Game of Thrones
2. The Sopranos
3. Breaking Bad
4. The Walking Dead
5. True Detective (Season 1)

They were the best, yes. I still watched the whole thing.

I liked the ending. It sort of reminded me of the ending of the first season of True Detective. By the way, that was also a AWESOME show. Only liked the 1st season, though.
Again, dark and twisty, crime and murder.

Gosh, I detect a theme..:O


edited to say. I wrote this before I saw your reply and that you listed True Detective, LOL !!!!

Hehe exactly! There's so much to love about the series. Especially Aragorn *swoons*

artists who have been huge inspirations to me in my career:

• Paula Scher: Citi Bank logo + countless others you don't know you know; HBIC of the design world

• Marina Abramovic: THE pioneer of important performance art. of her more famous pieces: she preformed sitting in a room and allowed anyone to do anything to her with any of the objects she set out. among these items: a feather, a knife, a bullet, a gun. someone loaded the gun, and pointed it at her. she never flinched, and other patrons interviened. if you Google anyone in this list, please let it be her. you will NOT be disappointed; her story is FASCINATING.

• Barbara Kruger: of Your body is a battleground and first wave feminist art

• Shepard Fairey: "Make Art Not War" and IP-stolen Obama "HOPE" poster; chaotic neutral lol

• Georgia O'Keeffe: she DID NOT PAINT VAGINAS. i really enjoy her later work. she's an amazing painter and built an incredible body of work well into her later years; she died at 99.

• Andy Warhol: the modern-day troll of the capitalist art society. i hated him at first, but honestly he's everything i wish i could be.

• Marcel Duchamp: the FIRST high society art troll; he entered an actual urinal fountain into an art exhibition and, when realizing it was placed in a stairwell, pretended to be a critic and yelled to the exhibition how it was a crime to place a fine piece of art in the back

• Pablo Picasso: a true prodigy ahead of his time; a 20 year old so good yet so bored, he thought "what if i painted a cow but like, as squares?" and Cubism was born.

there's a lot of older painters but it's friday and im drinking and can't be bothered. [emoji3]
