Borgen - last episodes. Great to see Alex get his come-uppance - 'Next time you want some fun, go to a fair.' Sad to see this series end but probably wise to quit while ahead.

BBC 4 TV doc about John Fahey. Another feather in the cap for the station, maintaining diversity of provision (what the BBC should be about and why the Tories must not be allowed to destroy it in the interests of their Eton mates). Alex from Borgen would never have commissioned it!

Finally finished my revisit to Twin Peaks. This was the first time I'd seen the second season since it was broadcast, so there was definitely a bit of 'memory readjustment' for me. Admittedly, flaws are easier to see. You can tell Lynch was rushed into resolving the murder of Laura Palmer; he threw out the great red herring of Benjamin Horne as the killer but wasn't able to run with it for any length of time. In addition, the show would have been improved greatly by the elimination of two characters: James Hurley and Donna Hayward. The only reason Donna doesn't come across as the biggest moron on the planet is that James is there to make her look a bit higher on the scale than a rock. I'm always annoyed by romantic tension that depends entirely on one or more participant being purposefully stupid, and that's here in spades. Still, it's a pretty darned good show.

I miss Chuck.

Though it seems coming up is a show that seems like it's inspired by or a copy of Chuck: "Intelligence" starring Josh Holloway (Sawyer in LOST). Trying to be a serious version of the man with intelligence database stuck inside his head story structure.

Breaking Bad - final season

You mean season 5A? BTW, what did you think of the 4th season finale?

The final 8 episodes - says The Final Season on my DVD box.

Season 4 finale completed the transformation of Walter / Heisenberg.

BTW, already (obviously) watched the first 8 episodes of season 5 before starting the final 8 episodes. Came in 2 separate DVD boxes.

Yes; I call them season 5A and season 5B, but maybe that's just me.

Really enjoyed season 1 but so far season 2 is feeling like a pale imitation. The show made the same mistake as The Gilmore Girls in the later seasons, it stopped focusing primarily on the main characters (the father and daughter) and instead spends way too much screen time with the zany peripheral characters and their antics. Hopefully the upcoming season 3 (Jan. 15th) will be an improvement, the cast is good they just need better material to work with.

Just finished "The Legend of Korra" season 2. My kids told me it was a good show, but not as good as "Avatar: The Last Airbender" so I wasn't expecting a lot, but I actually found the new series really interesting. Can't wait for season 3.
