TV Series - What Are You Watching?

[Hacker Khan]

Watched Der Pass on Now TV. Would recommend.

Finally got round to watching this. Not 100% sure what I thought, on the whole I enjoyed it as I am a sucker for a bit of subtitled crime drama. But on the other hand the plot and characters were a bit well worn and cliched at times. I do read quite a few crime novels and you could see they had ripped this part from The Bridge, that part from an Ian Rankin novel etc etc. But I'd probably watch a second series.

I only see him when he is on The Late Show - I do like Stephen Colbert. Oliver is for me just a little bit too smugly and knowingly 'British-amusing' for my taste. Much prefer Colbert. Jimmy Kimmel I quite like - but not a great fan of Jon Stewart.

On the political side of things I think my fave is like Rachel Maddow - love the analysis she does, but a lot of the US politicals on CNN and MSNBC are good - Cooper, Tapper, Lemon, O'Donnell. On Fox Sean Hannity is good for a despair...as is Judge Jeanine (mental)

Rachel got her Doctorate on your side of the pond at Oxford. It's really a shame that somebody that smart isn't a breeder. She's about the same age as my older child, but if she were interested, I'd at least give it a try. I'm attracted to intellect.

When I read your posts, I imagine you’re a cross between Yosemite Sam and Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy.

Can you imagine the visual hybrid that would make ??

I'm waiting until mid march, they are only drip feeding 1 episode a week. I don't do waiting for the next episode, so wont start until they are all available!

How did anyone cope in the pre-Netflix era when every program was just on once a week??

You think that's bad, I watched half the new series of Rick & Morty on E4 and then it just disappeared! The second half of the series is on at some unspecified time 'later in the year'.

Know the feeling SEAL stopped mid season in December and just came back on this week for remainder of season 3. Watched both episodes on Catch up now got to wait another week ?

It's a thing. We are watching episodes of The Outsider as they are broadcast. We have it recorded at 2am every Monday morning so I guess it is being broadcast in the States at 9pm ET Sunday. it is definitely quite 'a thing' having to wait a week between episodes.

It is an adjustment for some things. Sort of used to it with the series I watch on Sky (though we are now so far behind on Arrow, the Flash etc that it is getting silly, still waiting on the cross over from last year), it does seem odd on Netflix and Amazon where I am used to the whole series releasing. Wish I had waited to binge watch Picard when it was finally all released.

Are people still enjoying Picard? I am finding it just dull . As for the lady calling him JP When has he ever been a JP?

Not sure I am going to see this one through.

Arrow finished with the cross over a month ago now and series finished as well won't spoil it for you though I was a little disappointed in the final season of it. It does bug me though the way they do it as you have to dip between the series to catch up on what's going in other programmes.

I am really enjoying it. Thought the last episode with 7 of 9 was great.

I knew it was ending with the cross over, trouble is Sky has not aired any of the crossover episodes yet and there will be a gap in that as Sky does not have the rights to Batwoman (apparently WB want to keep it for their streaming service).

Big Fat Nope. Got really bored and irritated with it already. The story is quite dull and laborious, he was Jean-Luc never JP it's like they're trying to make him the hip grandad they think everyone wants. Its literally like just watching a retirement home on a spaceship.

Ah fair enough shows how far behind British tv is then as I've watched the whole series already, there's 2 episodes after the end of the cross over to tie it all off. Wasn't aware sky can't show Batwoman, that just makes a mockery of the plot line because you will miss a large part of what happens.

Tony Soprano's older brother is what I usually get, but that's probably more about appearance than anything relating to correspondence.

Hunters on netflix, ?

There must be an attraction to the South Coast of England, although I haven't been there.
I loved Foyle's War which took place in Hastings.
Now I've just finished the three seasons of Broadchurch for the second time.
I think that takes place somewhere near Dorsett, a little further to the west.
That area looks like a place where a coastal New Englander like myself might like to live.

Probably been mentioned but really enjoying the Split on BBC1.

One of the few dramas where I keep rewinding if I miss some dialogue - usually because Daisy has got her new squeeky zebra and is having a blast!

Liar series 2 out soon.
If you haven’t seen S1 it’s definitely worth a watch

Oooh, we liked that one!!

Line of duty next season has started filming too.

I watched the David Schwimmer thing on Sky, IntellIgence, it was OK for a lazy few hours of not thinking. Mildly amusing I would say... Watched the whole series in a few hours.
