try shooter

Thanks for the suggestion. Will check it out and see.

Nigerians and their self acclaimed intelligence.
What is the correlation between watching GOT and intelligence?

So...Nigerians are that intelligent and our country is like this.
The kinda things y'all use to feel superior in this country amazes me

For me o, I love Action/thriller and sci-fi movies...talk of Tomorrow people, strike back, 24, designated survivor, the man called god, four gods, etc

ModusOperandi:
I finished the first season today. It was too slow, like the story wasn't going anywhere, alot of unnecessary scenes.

better call Saul?

House of Cards!. No one seems to be talking about this, I came across it this 2017, and so far is the bomb. As for game of thrones, it never had the chance to prove itself because I end up fast forwarding it and then eventually deleting it from my device. May be I should give it a try.
Any other series.........like House of Cards, some pls share!

Yesssssss!! House of cards had adrenaline pumping through my veins, same feeling I had in the earlier seasons of scandal. It's a breathtakingly good show.

breaking bad

toysleek:
check out designated survivor and 24 legacy.

Yea, I have Designated Survivor saved up. But I havent started yet. I was chilling until they finish the complete season 1. Now they're done, the second season is coming up soon in September. I'll try to watch it before the season 2 gets half way. How can I miss a series consisting of Jack and Nikita!

Yeah, I started 24 Legacy, 2 weeks ago. I'm in Episode 3, where Eric Carter got free from breaking into the Police Station. It's been cool so far.

Bizibi:
game of thrones is better than house of cards......I've just finished the last season of house of cards,it is a nice series but not close to got.

i'll give it a 4th chance!...I just need something actionable and applicable in real life scenario, mad Ideas like that in House of Cards. Since you hav gone past both!, i'll check out GOT too, I pray the dragon and magic stuff doesn't become a turnoff.

donblade85555:
so u still dae watch cartoon? na wao....

all these stupid tween series, vampire diaries, teen wolf etc they just drop your IQ. How people sit down and watch those shows is beyond me

when is narcos season 3 coming outt?

VickyRotex:


I've heard and read reviews about the walking dead. The action would have done it well for me, but the horror, no. Don't like movies filled with horror. The name alone scares me.

game of thrones is like the walking dead with balls

game of thrones is the best seasonal movie so far.. mature, unpredictable and interesting.

Tomide12:
Away from the hustle and away from life’s worries. We tend to ease stress by entertaining ourselves. When you are deeply amused by Tonto Dike’s marriage theatrics, you may forget that the person sitting beside you has body odour. Movies and series are one guilty pleasure for those who indulge. They spend late nights or weekends to ensure they catch up with their beloved shows.

So just because we love TV and movies too and we enjoy trolling the people that share this our guilty pleasure, let's kuku run through the top 5 TV series that we Nigerians love to overhype. Starting for the king of them:

1. Game of Thrones

We know anything other than profound praise is taken as sacrilege when it comes to Game of Thrones. So before you come for my head, hear me out first.

Game of thrones recently dominated the screens and social media. Nigerians are downloading pirated copies and sharing with their friends. Everyone is talking about winter. Winter is coming they say. First of all, the rave was about the Lannisters, then Jon snow and now Arya Stark or is it Tyrion the dwarf. Ah, let us not forget about Daenerys mother of dragons. After crying about the loss of one character, we always find a way to latch onto another. It is not surprising therefore that for the past two weeks, almost everyone is talking about the 7th season of GOT. Banners, graphics, and even memes are trolling the internet. It got so bad that even haters took to twitter to boast on how they had not watched a single episode. But abeg who that one epp? What is it about GOT that is making people stay so faithful?



2. How To Get Away With Murder

People who did not know about the wonder of Viola Davis got to know about her in HTGWM. She embraced the character Annalise keating so well that it got her an EMMY award. We do not know why Nigerians love this series. But we suspect it is because we are fascinated with getting away with crime legally. Annalise is smart and the way she works with her ambitious students makes the thrill top notch. The suspense here is over the bar and is definitely not for the faint heart. If you are in trouble with the law, you know who to call.


3. Suits

This is another series revolving around law and its legalities. Harvey Specter is a brilliant lawyer and when in need of an associate he hires Mike Ross. Mike, however, is a college dropout but this doesn’t deter him from being smart and witty. We follow them both as they turn from friends to allies and sometimes dangle on a thin thread of betrayal. The series is not only entertaining but also educative. If you are a fan of suits please let us know. What is fascinating about white dudes wearing suits and plotting how to outwit each other?


4. Scandal

Olivia Pope thrives on scandals. From being the President’s media consultant to having her own crisis management firm. She seems to know how to clean up other peoples lives except hers. Her clients have histories and secrets that must be taken care of and so does she and her staff. Again, we can see that Nigerian want to know how to get away with anything. It is a pity that we may not be able to have our own Olivia Pope unless your baba in the village is strong.


5. Power

This series shows that it is only a ghost that can run the underground business and be good at it. It is, however, a pity that Nigerian ghosts are only good at finding their soul mate or looking sideways to cross the road. James St. Patrick the Ghost has a successful nightclub but what you may not know is that he also runs another operation: a drug empire that serves only the rich and influential. You see Nigerians we too like bad things. We may have had our own ghost in Evans but we are happy that his identity has been revealed.


Nigerians like a good story, we like power and danger. We love the thrills that come with being smart and witty. And yes we overhype what we love. Well, I am in my house watching “Nkoli Nwa Nsukka”, you cannot get to me.

Game of thrones overhyped? You are very stupid!

These are shows that are enjoyed by a large global audience and not just Nigerians. So to state that Nigerians overhype them means you know little about the successes these shows have achieved globally.

TV series may not be your thing. In the same vein you may not even be into foreign series. Or it may be the genre that doesn't appeal to you. I'm not huge on fantasy/magic, which is why I've still not seen the Harry Potter series, Merlin or even Lord of the Rings beyond the first part.

Growing up, I enjoyed British comedy shows a lot, but a lot of my friends couldn't understand why and mostly preferred American comedy.

I refused to watch GOT too for many years just because I don't like crowd mentality. But I binge watched Seasons 1-6 last December during the Christmas holidays and I must say it was worth the while. Now, I'm following steadily. I think watching and enjoying Vikings was what made me finally decide to give GOT a try.

Different folks, different strokes.

season 24 and Spartacus will never be second to none to any America blockbuster film....

[quote author=Edenoscar post=58957076]After watching the first season of game of thrones.i made it a habit not to believe everything i read on the internet.the way dem hype

you think say na all the Korean movies wey u dey watch Abeg u n this op neva baff

ModusOperandi:
I intend to. They say it gets better.

That's how a good tv series should be. It builds up...

On my 4th rewatch

vizkiz:
Game of thrones is overhyped?

"Jon Snow tomide12 you know nothing"

If you have seen the novel you wouldn't have come to that lame conclusion. Even Seun is an addict.

Well... unintelligent people find amusing things boring.

Just go and continue watching your Jennifer's diary

24!!!!!!!!!! Correct guy

vizkiz:


lol.

Mum hates Hollywood movies because of the whole "immoral scenes" like she will say but she knows who Sam, dean castiel and Crowley are. We all sit to catch up with the latest episode.

Yeah, Sam hit a dog and forgot about Dean (when he got trapped in Purgatory and couldn't be rescued) so Dean used that line when Bobby asked "where have you been?"

Dean: I was in purgatory, Sam hit a dog.


Yeah Cass died but you know there might be another cass on Earth 2. Supernatural have their way of manipulating things

Hahahahaha IKR Our Mothers It's a go-to Family fantasy series.

lol. That line is just funny. "Sam hit a dog" I'll google that part and watch it.

Yea, you're right. The manipulation thing though. Who knows, the rebirth of Castiel may just be upcoming. Just wondering if that series will ever come to an end. Season 13! Haaaa. I think that's the longest I've heard.

It has its own target audience. Every show is created for a primary demographic. Some secondary viewers outside that demography may enjoy it too, but there is a major target audience.

@ Highlighted, Exactly the reason I love Action/Crime series. Application in real life scenario!

Mcowubaba:


Lol, I dey learn work oo
Some people don watch pass me by far..

Yes, friends series is interesting.
That's one of my first American TV shows, I was much younger when I watched it...
It's not as recent as this other ones ooo, lol.
I believe it last aired around 2005 or so , that's the final season (10)

But I advise that you watch it, start downloading from season 1, you can do it.

I began watching the Big bang theory when it was was already at the 9th season , baba I download from season 1 to season 10, average of 24 episodes each..
And I didn't regret it'd one bit

I am addicted to BIG BANG THEORY! So funny and witty. I do not know why a lot of peeps do not follow it in Nigeria. I can never be bored with Big Bang Theory.

I really do not like scandals.

24
Prison Break (Got boring at one point)
NARCOS
Suits
Big Bang Theory
Game of Thrones
House of Cards

Are series I will strongly recommend
