jazzbo Posted September 5, 2012 Report Posted September 5, 2012 My Blu-ray copy of Homeland is on the way. Quote
JohnJ Posted September 6, 2012 Report Posted September 6, 2012 Homeland - DVD finally arrived. Plan to start watching this soon. Bought season 1 in Shanghai for $4.00, don't suppose it's genuine but the quality seems to be fine! Quote
jazzbo Posted September 6, 2012 Report Posted September 6, 2012 Finished the Blu-ray of last season's Sons of Anarchy. Was a great season, enjoyed watching it again. Staring Homeland today. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted September 6, 2012 Report Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Well into season 2. I just don't want to watch anything else at present. Forgotten how good Edie is. And Maris must have won a best supporting actress award back in the day. Edited September 6, 2012 by A Lark Ascending Quote
kinuta Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 Half way through the final season seven of The Shield. Quote

Don Brown Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 Over the past two days I've watched all twelve episodes of Boardwalk Empire - Season Two. I found it stunning. Both the actors and the writing left the majority of television series in the dust. Quote
BruceH Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 Right, it was a really good end. I wonder how long we have to wait for the final eight episodes ? Ten or eleven months. Quote
jeffcrom Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) I've got a recommendation (I think) for those of you who have both a taste for pop-culture parody and a strong stomach. Over the past several days, I've watched the nine episodes of Sex House, a web show produced by The Onion which can be found on YouTube. (Search for "Sex House Episode 1.") Don't get excited - this is one of the least sexy things you'll ever watch, if you're brave enough to watch. It's a parody of sleazy reality TV shows - the premise is that three men and three women are put into a house with nothing to do except party and have sex. It's pretty funny - at first, anyway. Pretty soon it starts to get disturbing. Very little sex happens, and what does happen is kind of creepy. (You see about as much as you would see on a broadcast TV show.) There's lots of alcohol in the house, but very little food. Soon the "players" are malnourished, depressed, and desperate. And things go downhill from there. The last couple of episodes are truly horrifying - they're not funny at all, except in some sort of outrageous, meta-humor way. But they're the logical conclusion to what has happened up to that point. By then you know the characters and... well, want them to survive. All nine episodes will take you about an hour to watch, I think. If a reality TV show produced by Dante sounds fun to you, watch Sex House. If not, stay away. I'm worried that I'm going to have nightmares tonight. Edited September 8, 2012 by jeffcrom Quote
kinuta Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 BBC2 Horizon - Defeating The Superbugs Quote
kinuta Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 The first episodes of two new mini series from ITV. Mrs Biggs Excellent start,the leads are totally believable, the settings authentic looking and the story most interesting. The Bletchley Circle Four ex code breakers team up for a spot of crime solving. This was very good too. ITV are on a roll. Quote

paul secor Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Watched the first three episodes of Luther. Preposterous plotting, but the acting and direction were good enough that the plots didn't matter to me all that much. IN-tense. Quote
Shawn Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 Iron Maiden - Behind The Beast (from the En Vivo blu-ray) Cool documentary of the 2011 Final Frontier world tour, what makes this different than most music documentaries is the focus is on the crew. It's nice to have interviews with all the sound engineers, lighting engineers, stage techs, guitar techs and production designers that put together a show of the magnitude Iron Maiden lugs around all over the world. I was amazed to find out that Maiden's FOH engineer has been with the band since 1979! From tiny clubs in London to 60,000 seat stadiums...quite a career! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 Anyone have all episodes of Captain Video? Quote
jazzbo Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Season 4 on Blu-ray. Edited September 23, 2012 by jazzbo Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 BBC2 Gardeners' World - finger on the pulse and all that. Well into series 3 now. The Tango episode between Niles and Daphne was priceless. Quote
sidewinder Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Pretty creepy ! Edited September 23, 2012 by sidewinder Quote
jazzbo Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 Just found out my Uncle Jack is going to be appearing on "Grimm" this coming Friday night. His second network TV appearance (he was a guest star on a Leverage, Season Two episode). I'm looking forward to it! Quote

His second network TV appearance (he was a guest star on a Leverage, Season Two episode). I'm looking forward to it! Awesome! I've grown to really like that show, felt that the first season took a little too long to get into a groove, but it's settled in quite nicely now. Quote
jazzbo Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 I agree, I was lukewarm on the first season, but this second one opened up full throttle and kept on. Quote
Matthew Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 NB80's. NBATV going though each year from the 1980's in the NBA. It brings back a whole bunch of memories -- who doesn't love Chocolate Thunder? Quote
