The TV show "Community." Now on the third season.

The TV show "Community." Now on the third season.

One of the only comedy shows I've truly loved in years, a shame that season 4 is sitting collecting dust on the shelves until February.

"The Hour" - a BBC version of Mad Men set in a seedy late-50s newsroom in London. Series 2.

"The Killing III" (the proper version) starts tomorrow - looking forward to that.

The Kiliing 3, episodes 1 & 2. Excellent as always. Also still enjoying Scandal and Nashville.

[jazzbo]

Watched a few episodes of "Luther", Season 2 (on the tele).

[Shawn]

The Avengers (1965)

[jazzbo]

Episodes of the first season of The Hour. Nice.

This week:

'The Hour' Series 2, episode 2

'The Killing III' episode 3/4

'Crossfire Hurricane' - a new Rolling Stones documentary. Episode 1. Some intriguing 60s/early 70s footage.

[jazzbo]

The Hour, series 2 episode 2 is out here on Wednesday.

Right now watching The Sopranos, Season 3

The TV show "Community." Now on the third season.

One of the only comedy shows I've truly loved in years, a shame that season 4 is sitting collecting dust on the shelves until February.

And season 4 (a mere 13 episodes) is probably not going to be good because the showrunner, Dan Harmon, was fired. Networks just don't know what to do with quality.

The Hour, series 2 episode 2 is out here on Wednesday.

You gave us 'Madmen'; we've given you 'The Hour'.

A pretty good exchange, I'd say (though I'd give 'Madmen' the advantage).

[jazzbo]

They're VERY different, in my estimation. I like The Hour. I love Mad Men.

[kinuta]

The final episode of Secret State which was underwhelming to say the least. I'll give it a 'why bother' rating.

The final episode of Hunted, the single worst tv series I've seen recently.

The final episode of Treme which was good, the programme is a kind of mood poem on New Orleans, the individual story threads are not so involving but the total effect is.

The penultimate episode of Boardwalk Empire which was brilliant, can't wait for the finale with Nocky and Al paired up against the evil(er) doers.

I know some people can't keep from comparing it to the BBC version...but the new TV show from this season I'm enjoying the most is ELEMENTARY. I think Johnny Lee Miller is fantastic as Sherlock and they are nicely developing his friendship with Watson. Great fun.

[jazzbo]

I agree, it's surprised me.

Led Zeppelin: Celebration Day. This is actually a very good DVD, that I'm enjoying immensely. Jimmy Page is great (love the Les Paul he's playing), Plant is singing in an age appropriate manner, not trying to recapture his youth, John Paul Jones & Jason Bonham work well together, and the music has aged very well. Digging it very much.

It thought it was excellent throughout. I was especially glad they dug out some of the mid-70s stuff like In My Time Of Dying, For Your Life, Trampled Under Foot and Nobody's Fault But Mine. That is my favorite period of Zeppelin.

[Shawn]

Excellent concert film from Polish Prog Rock band Riverside. Fans of Porcupine Tree should check them out.

Singer Jill Scott on tonight's "Fringe"

[A Lark Ascending]

'The Hour' and 'The Killing III' continue to hold my attention on TV.

Now on series 6 of:

The ridiculous Crane brothers continue to delight.

[JSngry]

It Takes A Thief on Antenna TV, an episode with Suzy Parker as the babe interest.

[sidewinder]

'The Killing III' continue to hold my attention on TV.

I still can't work out what the heck is going on in that one...

Very nicely shot though, if you pardon my pun.

The clue lies in the patterns on the jumpers!

Apparently there are remakes planned in both the UK and the USA of 'The Bridge' - speculation as to where. The Channel Tunnel, the US Mexican border!

The good news is that a second non-Andorran series is due though not until next Autumn.

'Borgen' returns in January - another excellent bit of Nordic gloom and intrigue.
