I never saw it as glorifying meth use or dealing. I looked at it like a longer version of Scarface or New Jack City: it only glorifies drug if you look at the surface. In all of them, the drug dealers are amoral murderers and the drug addicts are all train wrecks. Even more importantly, every single drug dealer dies in all of them. Well, except for Jesse in Breaking Bad and Christopher Williams' character in NJC lol. But for all the characters involved in selling drugs, there is no happy ending.
Top Boy. Only 8 episodes because it's one of those British series with micro seasons (Two seasons, 4 episodes a season). Best way to describe it is The Wire meets New Jack City meets Juice.
ok GREAT!! Going to watch! Love getting a new recommendation. Been dry around here

Yes that's exactly what I was saying. That when I first heard of it I had no interest cause I assumed it was about glorifying meth kinda like how Sons of Anarchy (by the same network?) kinda made biker gang violence kinda cool (not knocking the show - liked it). But when I finally watched breaking bad I saw I had judged the book by its cover. It was a shakespearean tragedy (no happy ending) - of ambition and survival and human nature and man's succumbing to himself. The opposite of glorifying meth. Also, it was kinda neat in that -as with certain other modern tv dramas- there was no clear line between the good and bad guys. As with shows like the original Law & Order and the Wire, the law was not always the good guy and the criminals not necessarily evil. And "justice" is not always black and white. I know you - 1980 - can appreciate.

Yeah, I'll be watching the fuck out of this one, too. I just wish that I'd seen it a few days ago. It would have been perfect to watch over the Christmas break before things start to pick up.
Creating a murderer is the best damn documentary I've ever saw!

Alright documentary about a few flabby and sick moronic parents forcing their failed dreams or looking at their children as golden tickets thru sports. 3*
Fuck the football dad pissed me off the most! He ain't nothing more but a punk ass coward that bullies his son to feel power. Nevermind, golf dad is the worst! I'm afraid for that little girl behind closed doors when the cameras isn't rolling. Fuck these lame ass parents.

Single girl meets a man at a train stop who mistakes her for his blind date. Refreshingly silly British romantic comedy that is very well acted with great reviews all around!
4/5 stars
