Started watching Scandal and The Americans. Fell asleep in latter, liked the former.
Almost finished Private Practise and Revenge has started again... Love it even though it's so unbelievable.
Ahhh, if only there were so many beautiful people in UK politics, hospitals, doctors, industry.

Watched the 2 part drama 'The 7:39' the last couple of evenings. Interesting view on what can happen when people have affairs.

I love Revenge too. It is ridiculously unbelievable and yet I'm still completely up for it. Don't ask me why.Sunny Saver wrote:Started watching Scandal and The Americans. Fell asleep in latter, liked the former.

Really loved the first episode of The Fall, will probably watch more tonight...though I was meaning to watch the 7:39, so maybe that'll take priority.

I love Scandal and think more people will watch it if it was on Channel 4 rather than More4. As for The Americans it is alright but I still watch it
For Sherlock fans like myself - http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2014-01- ... ven-moffat
Around 10pm on Sunday night, Sherlock fans may be feeling a combination of elated and melancholic. Elated because the concluding episode of series three is very, very good, melancholic because – just 11 days after it returned – it’s all over again.
So here’s some good news: Sherlock co-creators Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss have already plotted out two more series of the detective drama – and Moffat reckons it’s their best stuff yet.
“Rather excitingly, Mark and I, for no particular reason, we just got out of the rain and sat at the top of the [Sherlock] production bus… and we just started plotting out what we could do in the future,” Moffat told the audience at tonight's Bafta screening of the season three finale His Last Vow.
“And we plotted out the whole of series four and five.”
“So we have got plans – but our plans don’t tend to be ‘Let’s blow up the world or cast the most famous person in the world’ they tend to be ‘What exciting twists and turns can we add to this?’ And I think we’ve got some crackers!
“The ideas we had that day, I thought were the best we’ve ever had.”
And after you watch the series three finale on Sunday, you’ll know that’s setting the bar very high indeed…

Re: TV Series: Discuss, Review, Anticipate, and Wotnot
you know I kinda prefer Millers Sherlock. he comes across as more holmesque, deductive, snappy, he looks older and hes more like RDJs if nowhere near as madcap. Whereas BC is just too goodlooking! I don't think Holmes is supposed to be that good looking or young looking either, whilst I appreciate this is supposed to be a fresh approach to SH, it doesn't feel right, hes a bit too brattish. Its still an excellent interpretation though and he has the better show of course.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?

BC ? Good looking ? He has always evoked the image of a Galapagos turtle for me. Whereas JLM is hot stuff and always has been.raj101 wrote:you know I kinda prefer Millers Sherlock. he comes across as more holmesque, deductive, snappy, he looks older and hes more like RDJs if nowhere near as madcap.

Scandal is so brilliant isnt it! Kerry Washington has easily become one of my new idols! And Shonda Rhimes the creator of both that, private practice and greys anatomy, is a genius, i mean wow i wish i had her writing skills!
