Virginia Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) has a new series called Victorian Slum House. They take a modern family and dump them in a recreated Victorian slum. Harsh life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Pixie Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Hurray, Supergirl, The Flash and Arrow are back. Sad to have the finales of Murdoch Mysteries and Major Crimes, two of my top series. Ah well, Grantchester`s started again.yay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nollaig Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I've started watching 13 Reasons Why on Netflix, even though I haven't read the book despite it being on my TBR for years. So far its really good, and it works great as a show, so it'll be interesting to read the book afterward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppy Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 I watched an episode of The Coroner last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very likeable main characters. Has anyone else watched this series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Quite a few things have finished recently - Line of duty, Broadchurch, Big Little Lies, and Person of Interest only has two more to go so not much on now; still Poldark starts in June, hooray! And I have the last few of Timeless and all of Sleepy Hollow stockpiled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Pixie Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Just watched the last ever episode of Grimm ; I liked it more than I thought I would. Murdoch Mysteries - I thought I'd seen all the episodes, but last nights was a S9 two hour Xmas special I'd never seen before- brilliant !!:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Pixie Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Code Black - really good. W are repeating episodes overnight, so I`m catching up on a show I missed first time round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Pixie Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Ah, Eurovision. You never disappoint. I thought the UK did really well . I liked Israel, Italy, Romania and Sweden, but well done Portugal ( didn't the sister turn out to have an amazing voice !) Nice that Graham Norton remembered Terry Wogan. Things I thought were over till I saw Eurovision : Manbuns, Mannequin Challenge, suddenly rapping during a song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also keeping its place in the "programmes that work even better when watched alongside Twitter" list. I'm not too sure about the winner. It was nice enough, but nothing outstanding I thought. Other than that, I finished Big Little Lies, which was quite intriguing, and I am still watching many many other programmes and would like to get to the end of my catch-up tv backlog so I can watch something completely new on-demand.

Autumn Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Started a re-watch of Lost the other day - I love this show, particularly the early seasons and the pilot episodes are amazing. I'd actually forgotten just how good this show was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Yes the pilot episode was superb, shame the later series tanked and it got more and more ridiculous, but still I kept watching! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La la la, denial. Just watched Twin Peaks.Hoo boy. More of an arty experience than a tv show, but excellent. I'm halfway through Code Black S2 ; don't like the cast changes, but still very watchable. I saw the first two eps of Orange is the New Black on Sony Tv, quite liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Now that Person of Interest has finished (and boy did they mess that one up) I've got 4 eps of Timeless, and the whole of the last series of Sleepy Hollow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's just my own list, it doesn't account for what both of us are watching and what we've recorded on the Tivo - Supergirl, 24: Legacy, Silicon Valley (which we are at least up to date with) and we also saw the first hour of the Twin Peaks double bill - weird and spooky so far, as I'd expect! My backlog would be even bigger, but we've had two new Tivo's in the last few months - one was an upgrade, and one was a replacement for a faulty one, so we kept losing our old recordings (the first time being the worst). It was both annoying and quite cathartic at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inver Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 (edited) Heavens....watching The Handmaids Tale.....it's a bit gruesome. Not read the book so had no idea what it was about. Not sure I'll be watching all them I've started watching (again...started but never followed it all the way through) 'The Good Wife', we have Netflix so starting again from the beginning.

I'm okay with having given up on PofI then. If you'd said it was marvellous.... I'm almost up to date with Code Black now. I've also been watching some repeats of Murdoch Mysteries and Castle.

Madeleine Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Basically they should have left PofI after series 4, don't really know why they bothered with series 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
