It's probably the best series to come out of America in the last decade

You've clearly never seen Ax Men so.

One year I got a bike for my birthday. So I went peddling off down the road and knocked an old lady down.
'Can't you ring your bell?' She said. 'I can ring my bell,' I said 'But I can't ride my bike'

Nutty American lumberjacks. The lad in the picture (Shelby Stanga) is the craziest of them all.

Got it all set to be taped (nothing can get in the way of Im a celeb in my house). Still can't fathom how they'll stay true to the book and be allowed to air on tv.

watching Trailer Park Boys at the moment

on season 5 just now , its comedy set in a canadian trailer park ! definatly one of the funniest comedy shows around !!

watched American horror story , the other week first few episodes scared the shit out of me , its 11 episodes i think and the first 8 are really good but wasnt too keen on the last 3 eps although its definatly worth a watch !

also watching spooks just now , on season 9 now, its a bit boring getting now but need something to watch to pass the time at sea, i just think with this tv show the amount of people dying and new people taking over is just a bit much sometimes , although harry pearce is still there but i have no doubt his number will be up soon enough.

um tryin to think of any other crap ive watched lately , Falling skies watched season 1 of that was worth a watch if you like that kind of thing which i do.

Homeland season 1 is absolutly amazing , cant wait to get back home and download the new episodes for season 2 , same as dexter , all the season of dexter are pure brilliant and looking forward to getting home to be able to watch the new season of that as well.

breaking bad season 5 ( i think ) is definatly worth a watch if you like it , only first half of season available at moment with rest avail january i think but looking forward to it

I love that show. Loses it's way a bit after season 5 but the early stuff just slays me.

Hoping they wrap this up now. Been excellent so far but the story deserves a solid ending rather than just dragging it on for as long as it makes a profit.
