Spotify playlists for tv-series

I've come across some pretty long spotify playlists for different tv-series.
I've put the usernames in brackets to give credit where it's due. But if you find yourself here and don't want your name (or your playlist) linked, just let me know in the comments and I'll remove either one.

Music from Treme (user: Serieall.fr)
I'm currently watching Treme and it's opening a whole new world of music to me.

Lost OST (user: Serieall.fr)
Going to re-watch Lost soon, eerie creepy music a plenty.

Skins Series 1-6 (user: Anna Belsey)
Never watched Skins, but you've got to admire the work that has been put in to get 576 (currently) tracks together. I found the 200 for The Wire already quite a task.

Breaking Bad (my own, but I copied several playlists from others into one)
Awesome tv series with some real gems of music (for instance Bang data - Bang data).

Sons of Anarchy (user: Michael Gegerfelt)
Awesome tv-series.

If you've got a tv-series playlist that I should check (and or share) just let me know!

Snowwhite and the Huntsman OST

Saw this last week. If you don't look at the obvious holes in the plot (one day Snowwhite can barely defend herself, the next she basicaly leads an army and runs up the stairs of a stone tower in full body armour a sword and a shield fighting like the best of them) which you should (!) it is a pretty cool movie with an awesome soundtrack.

James Newton Howard has been a busy man this year, having also created the soundtrack for Hunger games, but I haven't seen the movie (nor listened to that soundtrack) yet. I could write up an long story about how much I like each track, but it's a good variation of eerie, creepy, tension etc :) Just give it a listen.
I'd have liked it if they would've added/recorded more of the songs from the movie on the soundtrack (the dwarf songs for instance).
The tracklisting with youtube links is below, but here's a Spotify list too: Snow White & The Huntsman

Embedded this one because it has such an awesome video with clips from the movie.
They make it sound really epic, maybe even a bit more epic than the movie itself.
