Hung was not bad, it had a lot more depth to it than I thought it would, will be interesting to see how it pans out

Hung was released on iTunes months ago, anyone who was interested in watching it, as I was, has already seen the entire first season.
And I don’t think anyone is surprised to see ‘MasterChef ‘beating ‘The Magicians Code’.

Wasn’t Breaking the magicians code on in north America like 10 years ago? I remember seeing this as a kid, but couldn’t be bothered to check if this was the same thing or a new version. Pretty weak, either way.
