I had trouble enjoying the first few but its really funny now ive come through it!..

Hell On Wheels...I wish the season finale would hurry up though. I'm expecting a big ending and I hope it delivers.

Love Poirot! Started watching it when it first aired. I recently bought the first 6 series or seasons of Poirot on Blu-Ray and just finished re-watching all the episodes last week. They look great remastered on Blu-Ray. Hope they do the same for Granada's Sherlock Holmes with Jeremy Brett.

Been watching the newest season of Doctor Who. Theres some pretty good stuff, but overall so far I've found it disappointing.

I would have agreed with you but then I saw the last episode-

Doctor Who:The Power Of Three
Complete return to form-heavily indebted to the Eccleston/Piper series without resorting to emotional manipulation of the viewers which was the only flaw of that era. There is a real emotional depth here but it's very subtle and very British. Remarkable that the whole 45minute episode takes place during "The Year Of The Slow Invasion" as Amy calls it. It does successfully show the conflict of interest between Amy/Rory's two parallel lives-mundane life on earth and life with the Doctor-and thows into the mix the standards of invention that the series had been missing since Asylum Of The Dalek's. However it condenses everything to then expand it on a superbly breathtaking scale (given everything crammed into this which I suspect requires a second viewing to fully apprecaite) and scope heading stellarwards towards the end.

Judging by the trailer for the final episode of this portion of the series it's gonna feature the ever reliable "Weeping Angels" the foes that brought the fear factor back to Doctor who-I hope it's gonna be an epic cliffhanger :)

Yeah that was one of the better ones in this season. I really like the Weeping Angels, I hope they bring them back for a good episode, and don't just bring them back for lack of a better idea. I'm don't believe this is the case, as they have an amazing team of writers, but I guess we will see.

Tried watching the first episode last night - Ugh - It's the kind of thing that I really should've liked but the writing was just so awful.

What did you think?


...


Been watching back-to-back episodes of The Wire courtesy of HBO Go (my first time around).

Utterly brilliant crime-drama (only classifying that because it's the best genre description I can think of)... Great writing, awesome acting - It's one of those rare shows that you just want to keep watching and watching...

I admit I find the writing and some of the story a bit "far fetched" but it's the kind of thing I'll watch just because there isn't anything on Network TV anymore that I can watch, other than Grimm.

I'm going to watch it until we find out a little bit more on what/why the power went out. (That part of it has my interest). The answer to which will probably determine how long I continue to keep watching.

I don't know if you ever saw Jericho, but Revolution really reminds me of a "Poor man's" Jericho (which I thought had excellent writing). The world altering event, the Militia and military groups, not knowing about the rest of the world, the feeling that there is something bigger going on behind the scenes, etc.

It has that feel, which I like, so it has my interest, but it also has a less talented cast, and a less talented writing staff so I'm still sitting on the edge with this one.

ChronoGrl 09-25-2012 05:33 PM

Never got around to Jerico but the fiancé really liked it. I told him that you called Revolution "Poor Man's Jerico" and he totally agreed and tipped his hat to you. :D

I know what you mean but on the evidence of Asylum Of The Daleks (managed to bring inventiveness back to another old foe) I have faith that they won't be there just for the sake of it. Fingers crossed can't wait for saturday!

Haven:Great start to the new season. This looks like it might be the best one yet.

Castle:A good episode and i'm glad they're not gonna use the Castle/Beckett relationship as a crutch

How I Met Your Mother

Hell on Wheels

You should definitely check it out.

Atraxi 09-27-2012 03:07 PM

I've heard terrible things about Revolution from people who really like that genre so if you think it's just you, it's not.

I'm tuning into Elementary tonight- will report back with my thoughts.

The Villain 09-27-2012 03:27 PM

I'm actually liking Revolution. It's not amazing or anything but it's holding my interest for now.

Just watched Copper

hammerfan 09-27-2012 04:32 PM

Watching the series premiere of Last Resort. Enjoying it so far.

Atraxi 09-27-2012 07:03 PM

Loved Elementary, definitely will be tuning in next week.

Yeah you have to start at the beginning on this one. There are some big twists. I think there are a few horror related episodes too. I remember a good one on a dark island. It was setup kind of like The Thing. I haven't mentioned the show here because it's not always horror. But it's a good show.

666 Park Avenue.

This looks like it might be pretty good. It feels a bit like that Keanu Reeves movie mixed with Pacific Heights. You have the guy who is clueless to things going wrong. A funny part was when he signs a contract in the end without reading it. He's a lawyer too! And the girl who feels that things are off and will start to put the pieces together. This is the best thing I've seen Rachael Taylor in. She was in that crap Shutter remake and of course Transformers. The guy from Lost is in it running the apartments. He always brings a spark to roles. I can't wait to see what's going on in this place.

Doctor Who: The Angels Take Manhattan
It's going to be impossible to talk about this without giving something away. So only highlight the following text if you don't mind spoilers.
Spoiler starts-This is the final episode of this section of the latest series and what a phenomenal episode it is! There is a air of death hanging throughout and it was such a huge shame that it was only 45minutes long as they crammed so much into it, that it was impossible for them to truly explore the emotional and profound implications of having two lead characters die at the end. It did try it's best to do it justice but the time constraints are very evident however this didn't ruin my enjoyment of it. You are aware as I said that death is hanging here. There have been subtle hints throughout the series that someone was going to die and you spend the whole episode trying to guess who will. On reflection I realise that they very cleverly tell you what is going to happen but as The Doctor is spending the whole episode trying to change the future, you can never be too sure what is going to happen and this makes for a very thrilling edge of your seat experience. The writing is superb and The angels are as terrifying as ever. As I expected they are not here for the sake of it, there is fresh life given to them in the form of child angels and the actual statue of liberty! Riversong is here as well giving another faultless performance by the actress. There's more mind-expanding concepts than you can shake a stick at as characterized throughout the matt smith/Anmy/Rory era and what a fitting finale this is to it! This show is very progressive and from here on it is entering new unknown territory and I'm very excited to see where it goes in the future. Spoiler end.

The next episode is going to be the xmas special and I'm worried that there is going to be another big gap before we see more episodes. I guess I will have to be patient.

I am so glad the Ponds are gone. No offence to Pond lovers but I think they are the worst companions of the Doctor Who reboot.

Is anyone else going to be watching Arrow? CW is also going to be playing Dr. Horrible on TV next week.

I quite liked them but I've heard a lot of hatred towards the ponds especially towards Rory so you're not alone in that view. For me the worst companion was Martha I stopped watching when it was her and David Tennant-they were unbearable and unwatchable for me.
