Can't recommend these two enough especially Musketeers which isn't well known since it's only had one season but I recommend it.

I see that Antonia Thomas is joining the cast of Musketeers, it looks interesting.

I have to add these also

Hit & Miss 

Mia, a preoperative transgender woman, works as a contract killer. She discovers that she fathered a son, Ryan, with her ex-girlfriend Wendy, who recently has died from cancer. Mia is named by the mother as guardian of the boy and his three half-siblings, who live in a rural farmhouse in Yorkshire.[sup][3][/sup]  While continuing to work as an assassin, Mia learns to cope with being in a parental role.[sup][4][/sup]





In the Flesh season 2 just finished

The show, set in the fictional village of Roarton, **********, though filmed in Marsden, West Yorkshire,[sup][6][/sup]  depicts life after "The Rising". During The Rising, deceased teenager Kieren Walker and thousands of other people who died in 2009 were re-animated as rabid zombies. The re-animated people were hunted down during "The Pale Wars" by armed militias. A medication was found to bring consciousness back to the undead, returning their minds to who they were before dying. The undead that were not killed by the militias were then rounded up and were given medication and rehabilitation by the government in a plan to reintroduce them to society. They are given contact lenses, cosmetics, and daily injections of medication to help them conceal their partially deceased status. They are officially referred to as survivors of Partially Deceased Syndrome (PDS), and pejoratively known as "rotters". Many are haunted by returning memories of the atrocities they committed while rabid. In the extremist village of Roarton, PDS sufferers face prejudice from the villagers upon their return.

Favorite UK series?

Tied at the top between...

John Cleese and Rowan Atkinson >>>>>> Your favorite actors.


I'll check out Top Boy though.

 

[a-friend]

So many good shows over in the UK.
Can't pick a favorite, most excited for the Peaky Blinders, Fall and Love/Hate all of which start in the Next 2days-2 weeks

 

[wavycrocket]

Bump. Can't believe people sleep SOOO much on this show.

One of the best shows in tv period. Smh

 

[a-friend]

I didn't know they canceled it.
But I guess I should have figured it a possibility once the rumors of Netflix picking it up started.

Thought they just added it like they did with Peaky Blinders which is still airing in the Uk.

It might be back though wavy Crockett because Netlfix picks up a lot f cancelled shows.

They picked up The Killing and Arrested Development after they got canceled

You think so? I actually saw the first season on Netflix in like 2011 or 2012...then they removed it from Netflix and I watched it on BBC online or something.

Any info on any other similar shows or movies from UK? Already seen kidulthood and a few others.

 

[a-friend]

Yea man check Underbelly. It's an Australian show not UK but it's six seasons. Each season is 12 eps and it profiles a different Crime Mob figure. I'm only starting season 2 but I'd actually give it a slight edge over TopBoy.

The first episode is dope but once you get 2/3 in and the new boss is Crowned, ***** bananas.

Just downloaded top boy

Where?
Why not just steam it? You can watch it immediately that way and don't have to worry about downloading virus' or flat spots

 

[sneakaprince]

a-friend I torrent directly to my phone pretty regularly so I'm not that worried. Where the streams at tho?

I use showbox mostly to stream with my apple TV but it's not on the showbox app

 

[a-friend]

I use my WiiU to stream from my web browser to the tele or I just hook my Laptop straight to the TV.

Really liked season 1 of Top Boy. I tried watching season 2 on hulu but those commercials hulu runs killed it for me. Wasnt season 1 on netflix?

 

[a-friend]

^^Amazon added commercials too but their UK portfolio was nuts right before I canceled it.
I watched Top Boy on a stream site though not Netflix.
Only subscribe to Netflix now but that's for the Netflix Original Programming.
Next show up again is Lillyhammer.

But I'm completely out on a paid subscription with commercials on top.
And the same commercial like 3 times back to back to back.
