Sancho Panza Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Rectify season 2 premiered last night. its a slow burner about a man who gets off a death row sentence through a technicality 20 years down the road and moves back to his home town. its really interesting and is manly character driven. not got any real frequency of violence nor any gore it just plods along but it does it so well and with just enough darkness to keep me enthralled. i haven't watched the new episode yet as i'm not really in a head place where i can watch a tv show but im looking forward to sitting down and getting my teeth into another season. i didnt know this but it looks like they might be showing this on terrestrial tv in the first frames of this trailer are anything to go by Edited June 20, 2014 by Sancho Panza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boojum Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Spent much of the day watching Orange is the New Black, and I must admit I'm enjoying it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boojum Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) Just finished season 1 of Orange is the New Black. I thought it was excellent (having initially not thought much of the opening episode) - highly recommended Edited June 21, 2014 by Boojum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
podencoid Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Reruns of Bergerac..... I've been enjoying them lately John Nettles went through a difficult phase with his health in later episodes of Midsommer Murders (we speculated it was too much rich food and consequent high blood pressure) but he was on top form in Bergerac!

revert Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Dominion Pilot was broadcast on Syfy last night so it's available in all the usual places bit cheesy but quite enjoyed it. +1 on Dominion, really enjoyed the pilot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did I mention its made by HBO? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boojum Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Just downloaded the entire series of Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister to watch at my leisure I loved The Thick of It for its venomous satire (and of course the wonderful creative swearing of Malcolm Tucker ), but Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister were in a league of their own in terms of writing, the use (and misuse) of language (especially by Sir Humphrey) was utter genius, often making me chuckle not just for the comedy but for the sheer joy of the writing Edited June 24, 2014 by Boojum 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
