[Nanker Phelge]

Anyone watching this on FX?

I downloaded it, and at first though uh oh, this whiffs a bit off, but by episode 4 it's started to gear up a bit.

Could end up ok...any views?

It's ace. The Morans and the Williams'. Melbourne has a rich underworld culture and loads of characters. Sadly I don't recall 'Granny Evil' Kath Pettingill making an appearance One on her and her wild lads would be
Give us a kiss Kath

I am getting into it as well. It was hailed as the Aussie Sopranos/ I Don't feel that you can compare but it has a good feel to it , I like the style and story is getting interesting now. Also as based on a true story this makes it more scary e.g. the woma being shot after leaving the witness protection programme.

Fair few years to late, but I'm really enjoying this

Last month finally got round to starting to watch series 6, ‘Squizzy’ - enjoyable fluff, same sort of period as series 4, ‘Razor’. So ta for the reminder to crack on, it's the only one I have left to plough through

Was a bit disappointed with Fat Tony & Co, though - too many of the characters (and some of the actors playing them) were too different to the original series.
