Now watching Rumpole Of The Bailey, a great series. Has got a very young Patricia Hodge too which is an added bonus. :-*

There was some amazing programmes in the 70s both here and in the States. Really pisses me off that so much time and money is wasted these last 10 years or so on reality TV bollocks. >:( :'(

Just realised that series 2 of Under The Dome has almost finished so have started watching series 1 again just to catch up. The main problem I have with it is the ex-army bloke being clueless about filtering the methane from the lake. All you need is several layers of sand and charcoal to sort that out, and with his training he should have been well aware of that. Bad research really annoys me >:(

Read the book Harv, very different.

Don't like King's books, I much prefer the films and telly series based on them. I just don't find his writing style to be readable enough for some reason. :-\

Seriously, the films and tv series aren't a patch becaue of King's characterisation.

Anyone started watching Gotham yet..? Is it any good..?

Still watching Blacklist, I can see this being my favourite programme for quite a while. 8)

Gotham has been excellent so far. Thoroughly enjoying it. Penguin is very well cast.

The FLash has been so so, has potential, but not as good as Arrow.

Not watched Stalker yet, but that is supposed to be very good.

Final series of Sons of Anarchy has been excellent so far, brutal, absolutely brutal. Love that show.

Latest series of Walking Dead has been great. New series of Haven has started well.

Homeland has started quite well, as has Agents of Shield.

Not started on the second series of the 100 yet. Enjoyed the first though.

I realised a while back that I never got around to watching the last series of Fringe so am watching them all again from the beginning. Forgot how funny Walter was when he came out of the Looney Bin. Brilliant, that must have been such a fun part for the actor to play, especially at the beginning lol ;D ;D ;D

Am also continuing to watch The Mentalist, just finishing series 4 at the moment. I think I worked out who Red John is during series 2, going to be interesting to see if I'm right. I think they get him in series 6. 8)

Ooh!!! The bloke I started to think was Red John is in Patrick Jane's list of 7 final possibilities. I think I'm right about it too, and I guessed it sometime during the 2nd series.

I should join the police force and work in CID lol. Have always been good at working out whodunits 8)

Just finished series 5, am tempted to go straight onto series 6 now just to see if I'm right. :P
