Little Pixie Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 I watched the first episode of Conviction. Saying 'it's better than you'd think' is correct, because I thought it would be 'absolute shite' . . . and it's only 'shite' Re The Expanse - why don't you cheat? Take the Netflix free 30 day trial, watch The Expanse (and Stranger Things!), and then cancel before the end of the trial Nooo, good idea but I just have so much to watch. Plus, I fancy doing a BSG rewatch to deal with my `spaceship craving`. Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Nooo, good idea but I just have so much to watch. Plus, I fancy doing a BSG rewatch to deal with my `spaceship craving`. Sooo you've got so much to watch but you'd rather watch 75 episodes of something you've already seen, rather than 10 episodes of something new? That makes a lot of sense Quote

That makes a lot of sense But... it`s 75 eps of something free ! Is it really 75 eps ?? I was thinking more like 50 or so. I don`t have The Plan as part of my box set, so I suppose - to get all completist - I`d `need` to get that at some point. Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 But... it`s 75 eps of something free ! The Netflix trial is free too. Keep up at the back Supergirl 2x06 - hee at drunk Kara Quote
Little Pixie Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 The Netflix trial is free too. Keep up at the back Shan`t . Nurr. Quote
Brian. Posted December 1, 2016 Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Having recently finished watching every episode of X-files again I needed something new to keep me occupied so I have been watching Vikings. I'm enjoying it far more than I thought I would and I've been flying through the episodes recently. I'm delighted that Netflix has finally got round to offering downloads to we can watch things offline. I have been able to do this with Amazon prime for ages so I am surprised it's taken this long for Netflix to offer the same thing. I think at the moment it is only for Netflix 'original' content but it is expected to be spread wider soon. Edited December 1, 2016 by Brian. Quote

Athena Posted December 4, 2016 Author Posted December 4, 2016 We finished watching The Big Bang Theory season 9. I really liked it and was sad it was finished (now I have to wait another year for the release of season 10). We've now started to watch an anime called Usagi Drop, about a 30-year-old man named Daikichi whose grandfather dies and leaves behind a 6-year-old girl. The mother has run off so Daikichi offers to care for the girl even though he has no experience caring for children. Quote
frankie Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 I finished watching season 4 of The Wire yesterday. Oh man, what an episode. Such a brilliant show! Quote
Virginia Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 Hubby had us watching Sensa8 on Netflix last night. Very interesting.... Right now I'm watching Monarch of the Glen. Quote
Ben Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 Currently on the first season of Gotham. Anyone seen this? Have fancied it for a while and first few episodes have been pretty good. Quote
Madeleine Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I've just seen that a new show called "Timeless" is starting tomorrow in the UK, it's a sort of jokey sci-fi time travel series which I think has been shown in the US - anyone seen it? Previews say it's daft but fun, and the premise sounds quite similar to Jodi Taylor's books, which I know a few of us on here have read. Quote
Ben Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Already on second season of Gotham which has started out like a house on fire. Thought the first was solid if not spectacular; pretty predictable in places. Already season two has thrown a few curveballs I didn't see coming. Brilliant. Quote
Athena Posted December 13, 2016 Author Posted December 13, 2016 I've been watching episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation. We're about half way through season 1. This is the first time for me, seeing most of these episodes, and so far I'm quite liking the show. Most of the episodes have been nice and enjoyable. I really like the characters. Quote

I'm looking forward to watching this programme Madeleine, as you say I am reading the Jodi Taylors books. Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted December 17, 2016 Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) ^^ So much for having too much else to watch The DC crossover episodes were good fun, even if they made no sense whatsoever ETA: Had to laugh when Felicity got time travel sickness and started quoting the Star Trek TNG episode 'Darmok' Edited December 18, 2016 by Karsa Orlong Quote
bobblybear Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Gilmore Girls, Gilmore Girls, and Gilmore Girls. Nothing but Gilmore Girls. Can you blame me though? It's fantastic! Quote
Little Pixie Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 ^^ So much for having too much else to watch The DC crossover episodes were good fun, even if they made no sense whatsoever Err.....Busted !! I`ve also just ordered X-Men Collection ( all films on Blu Ray ). I haven`t seen this week`s DCs yet. I`m about to get stuck into Supergirl now. Whoops, that sounds wrong. Quote
frankie Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Gilmore Girls, Gilmore Girls, and Gilmore Girls. Nothing but Gilmore Girls. Can you blame me though? It's fantastic! :exc: It really is fantastic, isn't it! I'm so jealous that you get to watch the whole thing from the start, for the first time! So many great moments ahead Just remember to take Reuben out every now and then... Quote
Madeleine Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 I agree about Timeless, barmy but fun. Quote
Virginia Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 I decided to hunker down with Dowton Abbey. I've never watched more than a few episodes but now that I have more time I'm going to do all six seasons. Quote
Ben Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 Gotham again. Really impressed with this series. Quote
