THE TV SHOW THREAD - *** NO SPOILERS ***

[Randall]

Interesting but like all of these zero resolution

Has anyone seen Veep? The US version of The Thick of It. ('Veep' = Vice President)

Watched the first couple of episodes and couldn't get into it.

Oh right. Forgive my surprise, I wasn't particularly expecting an answer! Things like Veep and Curb Your Enthusiasm have completely passed me by... I'm looking for a US sitcom with 20-minute eps.

Curb eps are longer, but well worth it. 1st 3 Seasons of Arrested Development are great too.

I've finally got round to watching Curb. I just finished Series 1...really good. Sort of excruciating situations but without being painful to watch. Works for me.

I am making my way through Season 11. Seems a lot more forced than previous ones, but still better than most things on.

That's a good way of describing how I've felt about series 1. It moves nice and easy. It doesn't feel at all forced.

[Randall]

that's so weird. Very good.

[Rogg]

Series 1 of Doctor Who with Eccles and Billie Piper. She is incredible in it.

I'm actually watching it for the nostalgia value. Can't believe the 'new' run of the show is now 17 years old. Bloody hell.

[Rogg]

Watched 'Dalek' for the first time since it was aired.
Back when Doctor Who could actually land something.
Eccles is invited to come see a creature chained up in the basement... he has no idea what's coming. He unhinges completely.

[Randall]

Watching the tourist
OK after 1 episode

[Rogg]

Any fans of 'Sherlock'? The Moffat/Gatiss BBC series.

[Randall]

Never seen it
The tourist was ok

The expanse finished today. Thank god one of my fave tv shows ended well rather than the turgid mess most devolve into.

Hope they make a film or two to finish the book material.

[Rogg]

Parks & Recreation is a delight. Anyone?
