The Mini Series Thread

Oriphiel · 06-06-2017, 10:28 AM

Man, I remember back in the late '90s/early 2000s, mini series were the shit. There were a whole bunch that were really fun, like Arabian Nights, Merlin, and The 10th Kingdom, even if they were a bit cheesy. I'm kinda in the mood for more awesome mini series to watch, so anybody got any recs?

You stfu! The Tenth Kingdom was classic!

Edit: sorry, you said "were THE ****". I thought you said "were ****". Carry on. Apols.

Carlos is excellent. I haven't seen many miniseries but that's probably my favourite.

You ever see The Lost Room?

It's all good.

Glad to have found another fan, though. So, what was your favorite part? I bet it was the part with the magic mushrooms and Procol Harem.

Edit: Also, I haven't seen either of the recs above. I'll check 'em out.

You got it! So ****ing funny. It's ages since I watched it, though I do remember the "We will rock/shear you" being hilarious too.

This one is amazing too. Nothing to do with Liam Neeson, I should add!

Top of the Lake!!!

They're currently making a second one, so now would be a good time to watch it.

And also Angels in America (based on the play by Tony Kushner)

Oriphiel · 06-06-2017, 01:17 PM

Alright, I'm gonna check all of these out, starting with The Lost Room and Carlos. Thanks for the recs!

P.S. Do any of you remember all those mini series based off of Stephen King stories, like Rose Red, It, and The Stand?

**Frownland** · 06-06-2017, 01:22 PM

I do remember them and they were garbage.
