TV Series - What Are You Watching?

The Sweeney. I have been recording them on ITV4 and then watching them in order.
A quote from the first episode from Reagan, in an angry voice, "we're the Sweeney, and we haven't had any dinner".
I'm sure that Life on Mars was inspired by The Sweeney.

Been watching them too. Amazing to see who has popped up as a villain or snout and gone on to make names for themselves https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sweeney#Cast_and_characters
 
Just completed series 1 of Deadwind.
Finnish police murder drama on netflixwith subtitles. Quite bleak set in the winter with good character development and some decent sub-plots. Like these scandi-noir dramas.
Reminded me a bit of Cardinal, a Canadian equivalent series.
Enjoyed this one, 12 episodes kept my attention.

The Sweeney, one of my all time favourites. "Put your trousers on, you're nicked!"

At some point in the past, I wrote a satirical piece imagining what would happen if Reagan and Carter took over running the NFL. Not sure if I am proud of it or now ;-)
 
Roadkill is pretty good based on Episode 1. I guess George escaped going over the top in Blackadder if he is now a Government minister.
 
Parks and Recreation what a cracking series, I started watching it on the recommendation of people on here, I got bored and distracted by other things to start off, so started it again, I'm loving it, well worth a watch if you haven't seen it ????

Thanks to everyone who pointed me in this direction

It's superb - Ron Swanson is one of the best comedy characters of all time.

I know my friends across the pond might not find this that interesting but THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO SEVEN is really well done. I lived through that period here in the states and it's historically accurate for the most part. Aaron Sorkin is a master story teller and the actors do a great job. These events took place 50 years ago. It's amazing how much what happened parallels some what is still happening today.

Started watching again from S1E1 last night. Likewise I got distracted. Will look to get Mrs SILH watching as our ‘We’ve got half hour“ watch.
 
I’ve started working my way through Lost. Watched it back when it first came out and only managed to get to series 4 before I got a bit perplexed with it all. I’ve just finished watching the first 2 series and starting on season 3 tomorrow. Enjoying it so far.
