Breaking Bad-Real Bad

The Dark Side
If there is one series that will truly get you off the edge of your chair,it must be Breaking Bad.

This antihero movie about a chemistry teacher who is suffering from lung cancer and then turned to manufacturing methamphetamine to provide for Texas, New Mexico and Czech Republic is truly one gripping television series.

After 5 seasons it ended last year.

Truly engaging.

Bryan Cranston as the protagonist turned baddie turn in such a superb action of a man at the end of its wits.

Seeing is believing.

A Dexter December


This series certainly has its high moments and its lows too.

While the series was more excitement than dullsville, the finale was certainly not up to expectations.

Jennifer as Debra Morgan
This serial killer tv series is downright bloody and watching eight seasons at one go in 10 days in December 2013 did take a toll on one of my eyes. Imagine 8 years of the series in one go; so I got a Red Eye.

Julia Stiles
Definitely a series to watch, it will go into its ninth and final season next year.

The main stars are Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter though the ninth season will not have Carpenter as she was written off  in the eight season-due to death to complication in surgery. I guess it may have to do with the divorce of these two main stars in real life.

Poisoner Hannah Mckay played by Yvonne Strohovski
The Cast
Playing subsidiary and eye candy roles are Julie Stiles, Yvonne Strohovski, Julie Benz,Aimee Garcia, Jaime Murray and Katia Winter.

Dexter with serial killer Hannah Mackay
Let us see what the cat will drag in for Dexter in Season 9.

Room and Love at The Top

Sensual Love
This two-parter UK made telly series, Room at the Top s is a powerful rendition of the classic book.

As I have not seen the Simone Signoret film version which won Academy award acclaim, I can make no comparison.

The characters and the actors that hone them into flesh and blood make this one a refreshing new outing.
Romp in the Hay
The eye candy is the tragic Alice played by Maxine Peake and the lovable cerubic beauty Susan played out nicely by  Jenna Coleman.


Cerubic Delight
Matthew McNulty takes on the stoic protagonist Joe.

Sadly because of copyright issues, the series was aborted.
