Brad Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Just finished up watching Peaky Blinders, an outstanding series. My son and I are now watching The Strain. Quote

jazzbo Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Person of Interest The Americans DaVinci's Demons Season 2 Quote
paul secor Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 I've been watching collections of Midsomer Murders from our library system. The mysteries themselves are fairly mundane, but I find it very entertaining to watch dozens (actually hundreds over the course of the series) of great English character actors acting in small parts and often seeming to have a great time hamming it up.

jazzbo Posted March 18, 2015 Report Posted March 18, 2015 Better Call Saul, Monday's episode, niiiiiice. Sirens Da Vinci's Demons Season 2 special features Quote
JohnJ Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Empire. Anybody else here watching the most talked about show on TV? Quote
jazzbo Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 I've watched all the episodes up to the finale, will probably watch that tonight with my fiancee after our Thursday night dinner together. Way over the top but that's part of its charm. I'm a big fan of Ms Henson and she gets to go off like a bomb in this series. My biggest complaint is the Lyon as murderer bit, it's unnecessary, he's already a horrible monster. Surprisingly, I really enjoy the music (was just as surprised at how much I enjoy the music on ABC's Nashville). Just about to watch last nights The Americans. Quote
erwbol Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Empire. Anybody else here watching the most talked about show on TV? Never even heard of it, homie. Just about to watch last nights The Americans. I'm about to watch this week's Justified and Americans myself. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 My brother keeps wanting to get me into Justified. . . I'm just not a big Oliphant fan and have avoided it. The Americans was another good episode. Quote
erwbol Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 You'd have to appreciate Oliphant to get hooked on Justified. Seasons 1 through 4 were excellent, as is 6. Five was miserable and is best skipped in favour of a wikipedia synopsis and a few pre-episode recaps at the start of season 6. Quote
erwbol Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Right. There are so many good shows, why bother if you're not excited to begin with. Quote
jlhoots Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Broadchurch - season 2 Hoping that The Fall (season 2) & Line Of Duty (season 3) will come out on US compatible DVDs. Been waiting "forever" for season 2 of the French version of The Returned. Still in production I guess. FWIW, I really like Justified, but I liked Deadwood too. OTOH, Game Of Thrones doesn't do it for me. So to each his own. Quote
erwbol Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 OTOH, Game Of Thrones doesn't do it for me. So to each his own. IMO, the books are also tripe, even the first three. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) Hoping that The Fall (season 2) & Line Of Duty (season 3) will come out on US compatible DVDs. Been waiting "forever" for season 2 of the French version of The Returned. Still in production I guess. As far as I know there have only been two Line of Duty series. Though 2 more have been commissioned. If you want a really great French police thriller seek out 'Spiral' (Enrages), It's not done 5 superb series, each one multi-layered, gripping and filled with unusual and attractive characters. You also get to visit the parts of Paris that you'd never dream of visiting on your own. Edited March 19, 2015 by A Lark Ascending Quote
Shawn Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Needed a break from anything remotely serious so I'm watching 30 Rock. Quote

Yeah, Empire is one wildly entertaining show, a sort of King Lear for the Hip Hop generation! Also watching one of my favourite shows of recent years on DVD, The Good Wife season 4. Quote

Oliphant didn't do much for me but there were so many other great performances. I like Game of Thrones on Blu-ray . . . entertaining, I don't take it too seriously. Quote

Engrenages (downward spiral), not Enragés (enraged) I mostly enjoy the slow moving Maigret and Nestor Burma but I have stopped watching any French police thrillers since the dreadful Navarro, Julie Lescaut or Commissaire Moulin series.

A Lark Ascending Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 Well, I only just passed my Fench 'O' Level. I once ordered a rabbit of coffee in the East Berlin radio tower - kaninchen rather than kanchen (guessed those spellings too). Quote
