Watching Homeland S8 on Netflix... Great, except for having to use descriptive text otherwise there are no subs for when local language is used...

Have been binge watching Ray Donovan , just finished S7 and ending was.set up for the another season so googled when this would be made and they have cancelled any further seasons ??.

Just read that they are going to make a film next year so they can round it off.
Main issue was the number of lead character s all wanting a large few to do another series .

Anyone watched Hot in Clevland ? a comedy staring Betty White from the Golden girls.

Is that the one with the Mancunian woman from Frasier in it as well.

Yes

 

[GB72]

Yes

Seem to recall watching it quite a few years ago. It was OK, standard US middle of the road sitcom.

Watching "old school" is so boring . Nothing better than bingeing a series .. 2 a night for a week

In current speak "old school" viewing is going forward to be considered as part of "event television"... Apparently...

Streaming or watching recorded programs isn't good for income streams reliant on commercial breaks...

Finished The Night Stalker last night. Chilling stuff, the it was one hell of a killing spree the guy went on. It must have been terrifying living in LA when it was going on.

Your Garden Made Perfect, BBC2. To those who haven't seen this it sounds like a regular garden makeover show but it isn't, it has a key difference. Basic premis, a family have a dodgy garden that they want to improve, have a pot of cash but no idea what to do. 2 designers come up with an idea but instead of showing them a few flat drawings they put on virtual reality headsets to show them the design whilst walknig around it. It is brilliant, immersive, what a difference that makes. They then choose which one and you see the finished article after the work has been done. It pretty much matches every time, minimal deviation.

As an extra they also have another family, smaller garden, smaller budget. Same idea but it is the same guy who does the design each week, the owners do not have a choice. Thankfully he is excellent at what he does.

If you have not seen it before then start with last nights episode. Probably the best I have seen, what a difference. A real pick me up.

Enjoyed the house version of this, but some of the budgets were eye watering.

[spongebob59]

They are in the garden one. A budget garden at £8000

Watched the first episode of the new series of McDonald and Dobbs. Really enjoyed it, there seems to be a different vibe to the episodes and the scenes around Bath make for good viewing.

It's one we need to see again in July-September. Apparently it was October when the cameras went there for the reveal so nothing was out. It needs to grow and take shape.

I know what you mean though. For that much money you want a wow and that wasn't, at that point anyway.

Have you seen ep4 yet? That's a cracker.

It's gentle Sunday night viewing. It doesn't tax the brain but it is all very pleasant.

If you can't make Bath look good then you need to look at yourself. Thankfully they do it justice and it adds to the enjoyment.

It looked like an abandoned quarry ?
