Little Pixie Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I finished season 1 of Bosch. Pretty good. Now on season 4 of Ray Donovan, and playing catch-up with Episodes (started with season 4 and currently on season 2 ). Episodes ! Yay ! I think I enjoy it far more than it deserves.

Kylie Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I've been rewatching The Newsroom. Such a clever and funny show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Begins Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Gotham is my favourite TV from the last few years - season 1 and 2 are fantastic. I don't much care for violence on tv at all but there are so many good performances in it - just a brilliant show. Although it's too violent to watch with my daughter in the room, I am finding time to watch it... I'm a huge Ben McKenzie fan, and I'm really liking Jada Pinkett. I enjoy watching Robin Talor too and I'm looking forward to seeing him develop as the Penguin. Edited August 9, 2016 by Anna Begins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a huge Ben McKenzie fan, and I'm really liking Jada Pinkett. I enjoy watching Robin Talor too and I'm looking forward to seeing him develop as the Penguin. Oh my goodness, yes - its far too violent for children. And can be quite dark as a result but there's a lot of humour in there too. I actually envy you getting to see it for the first time! Taylor is excellent as the Penguin - in fact all the main characters develop really well as the season goes on; its a great ensemble cast. I really watch very little TV nowadays and I rarely enthuse about TV programmes generally but this is wonderful. It does seem that the USA makes far better and more intelligent TV than we do here, these days - almost all the things I DO watch are American.

Virginia Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I'm getting caught up with Luther. This is not the type of series that you can skip over. You HAVE to know whats going on in the previous episode. I simply love this show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Watched the pilot episode of Hill Street Blues, and it was so good! As good I remembered it in the 80's . I look forward to watching the other episodes too. Ditto for St. Elsewhere. Both were ground breaking series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Oh I loved Hill Street Blues, possibly my favourite US cop show ever, almost matched by the equally peerless NYPD Blue, did you watch that too? St Elsewhere was also another gem, the ER of it' s day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Pixie Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Watching quite a bit of the Olympics ; yes, including a couple of swimming finals around 3 am ( the upside of insomnia ). The ladies' double sculls was just nail-biting today ! Edited August 11, 2016 by Little Pixie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Begins Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Besides my nightly viewings of The Andy Griffith Show *swoon* who I have a major crush on, I'm thinking of taking up Game of Thrones... a total departure for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontalba Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 watched the first two episodes of Marcella last night.... intrigued already. We saw it recently, loved it. I'm getting caught up with Luther. This is not the type of series that you can skip over. You HAVE to know whats going on in the previous episode. I simply love this show! We'd started it, but somehow fell away, I know I want to go back and start over. Very intense. Watched the pilot episode of Hill Street Blues, and it was so good! As good I remembered it in the 80's . I look forward to watching the other episodes too. Ditto for St. Elsewhere. Both were ground breaking series. I loved this show! I watched it "back then", you know in the Stone Age..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athena Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 We finished watching CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (Las Vegas) season 3 part 1 and then continued watching season 6 part 1, which is where we left off when we found the DVD of season 3 part 1.

St Elsewhere was also another gem, the ER of it' s day. Hill Street Blues was (and still is, for me) wonderful!! Now that I have found the whole 146 episodes of HSB on Channel 4's All 4 for free, I can watch them all again I loved this show! I watched it "back then", you know in the Stone Age..... Ha ha, it really was the Stone Age then, in the early 80s, compered with now . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Watched the last two episodes of The Musketeers. Reasonably happy endings too , and I loved the twist at the very ending!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Pixie Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Murdoch Mysteries. It`s been on for years, but I`ve just got into it; it`s like CSI Toronto set around 1900. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nollaig Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 The Night Of. It's very good! But I do think the pacing is a bit off and it's a bit predictable, probably due to the fact it's a miniseries and doesn't have a lot of time for fleshing out and misdirection.

Wowee! Absolutely loved it. Gotta love Alice. Luther is amazing. We're still waiting for the last 2 eps to be on some streaming service for free though. We hadn't yet watched it when it was on BBC at Christmas otherwise we would have taped it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
More reading time required Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I'm feeling somewhat bereft since the Olympics finished, but at least that gave me a chance to catch up with a load of iPlayer stuff whilst there was nothing much else on.

Madeleine Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Yes One of Us was quite good, glad TV is back to normal after the Olympics. I'm also glad that Ripper Street is back, and enjoyed the last series Musketeers, glad they all got a happy ending! Poldark soon.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
