TV Series - What Are You Watching?

Still going with The Witcher. Superb TV picture quality. As for the series itself, not a clue what’s going on but don’t mind that, as with GoT I didn’t either!

If you manage to stitch together (m)any of the threads you have done better than I. But fun watch - I guess.

Poor again last night, really light weight feel to it and again the murders are complete guess work to try and solve yourself. Yes that newish copper woman, she needs cutting from the series asap, completely ruins it.

But its never claimed to be The Wire. Is has always been light weight and you've never really been able to confidently guess who did it as important clues are always first shown in the reveal. Plus we got Vyvyan doing a Geoffrey Boycott impersonation, what's not to like? ;)

I don't recall it being this slapstick in earlier series, I like the main copper though. Yeah you have to look close at the start for the clues but even then it's brain frazzling o_O

I seem to remember when Ben Miller did it it wasn't played for laughs that much, but since he left I think it mostly has. You've always had one comedy sidekick copper to 2 serious sidekick ones, it may be that the current sidekick comedy copper is a bit too 'comedy' for many, including me. And if you've ever guessed both the who and why someone did it before the final reveal then you are better detective than I am. ;)
 
Dempsey and Makepeace - I mean, how hot was Glynis Barber in that? I got talking to Michael Brandon at a Super Bowl party years back - really nice guy and serious Giants fan.
 
Watched the latest Midsomer Murders last night. Absolutely awful. So dull and lifeless. ITV really need to stop making them now as they are an insult to the Bergerac era. I'm a big fan of the program but they are just insipid and characterless now.

So right. They are awful. Last one I saw was circus people dying all over the place. Within hours of each death everyone was almost back to normal, as if nothing had happened. Circus kept on going. No sign of Press. No sign of H and E who would have had the circus bloody near dismantled ?
And then to top it all, the latest episodes have no formal police interviews of the perps. They are sat down and Barnaby tells a story of what happened ( allegedly). And there's your evidence.
I know these things are escapism etc etc, but they are really getting cheap and slapdash now.
 
Just caught up on last weeks death in paradise. Got to admit as stories go is was one of the weaker ones and Im actually looking forward to the change of Inspector because I think Mooney & his new sidekick aren't that good together. Still its just light hearted fun TV so happy to keep watching.

But I wish they'd bring Florence back ?
