Good Stuff on The Telly
On the back of ciaraella mentioning Touch in another thread. Hadn't heard nor seen it so another one to throw on the pile-up of unseen shows.
Watched the first episode of The Bridge last night recorded from the previous week. Another one of those grim and grey Scandinavian cop shows. A saucepan-over-the-head opener that rendered me too gripped to get to the fridge for the last of the mammy-in-law's lemon meringue. Yes, that good. Saturday nights, BBC4, four episodes in, but there's a chance it's still available on the BBC player. Good, gripping or downright mind-numbing. Lash up your recommendations there like good comrades.

Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
I love Homeland but think the series is over now. I watch House, New Girl (Zooey Deschanel), Bones, Criminal Minds, and Raising Hope - great bubblegum for the mind... Addicted to Fringe. Also watching Person of Interest (Jim Cavieziel) and Alcatraz online. Loved the Killing (Danish/original series). Suburgatory and Modern Family are also viewing staples of mine.
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
Me again, i'm going to seem like a right telly addict.......well our sky plus box is like a member of the family at the moment.
Besides Touch we're watching: True Blood, season 4 just finished - i adooooore true blood, Eric is one hot vampire Alcatraz - good so far but as it's be the makers of Lost i'm waiting for the moment where i get fed up and resolve never to watch it again. The Walking Dead - finished a couple of weeks ago but really worth getting the boxset/netflix etc, it's seriously good. Nothing too brain challenging but all good drama Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
Interested in this too.
Have foudn lately I'm flipping, watching re-runs of Family Guy or just having BBC news on in the background. We watched Homeland and LOVED it. Cant' wait for the next season. I watch Desperate Housewives as my guilty pleasure, but I justify it by not watching any of the soaps or any of the reality TV shows like Britain's Got Talent or any of those. Watching Touch too and really enjoying it. I'm a sucker for Kiefer Sutherland though. Apart from Touch and Homeland though, haven't watched anything new in ages and ages. Heard good things on Twitter about the Bridge. Might give it a go. [url=http://www.TickerFactory.com/]

Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
We do mainly online watching these days, so not sure which if any of these are on the regular telly:
Justified - Timothy Olyphant is very hot and does a Walker Texas Ranger impression (lots of shooting, think he averaged one dead person per episode in series 1) Alcatraz - Ciaraella, I'm the same re the Lost thing but the fact that they keep using exactly the same "atmospheric" music as they did on "the island" is already annoying me...will plough on though Revenge - nice frocks, small bit of tension, easy watching New Girl - I think we both fancy Zooey Mad Men - always a winner Grimm - no idea what any of the characters' names are, but it's easy enough to watch and we're not sure if we missed a couple of episodes and it doesn't really seem to matter Modern Family - hilarious! The Daily Show and The Colbert Report - essential watching for all US electioneering/mockery of FoxNews House - I watch this by myself and I'm rationing out the last season Haven't heard anything about Touch or The Bridge...must get Imdb-ing. Have himself checking out where we can watch Once Upon a Time. Don't know anything about it, but it's got a good imdb rating.
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
The only programme I can add to the above is The Mentalist. It's gone a little downhill but still watchable.
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
I'm limited to RTE, TV3 and TG4. My top choices would be:
Mad Men Homeland (can't wait for next season) CSI (NY, Miami, Las Vegas...I'd watch them all) After that I'm not fussed about what I might miss. I'd watch the likes of Greys and Desperate Housewives but can take them or leave them. I used to watch Brothers & Sisters and Parenthood but they're on all sorts of dead of the night hours and I need my beauty sleep. Would really like Law & Order SVU as well but again, I can't seem to keep track on when and where it's on. My guilty pleasure: Home & Away! Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
Homeland and Game of Thrones are the first things to come to mind. Have Homeland recorded so we're a few episodes behind. It's so good though.
Game of thrones actually makes me look forward to Mondays And this series of Mad Men in excellent. Every episode so far has been brilliant. FORMERLY HANDYMAMMY!

Oh, and I forgot, we just started watching Veep. Only 2 episodes in, but it's great.
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
On the fluffy side I love Smash...it's only new but it's brill. On the heavier side I have a series of Damages of the skybox...need a rainy weekend and a nanny!
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
Does anyone know where i'd catch Homeland from the beginning apart from going online for it?
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
Wondering the very same thing.
The Bridge is repeated on BBC4 on Tuesdays and Thursdays I think, so you could get episodes 3 & 4 this week. Can give a quick update for anyone wanting to join in. A big bang opener but nothing overly complicated. Yet. Formerly known as Prince
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
I am going to sound like a tele addict but i watch the following (When i can)
Comedy : How I met your mother The Big Bang Theory Modern Family Girlie : Desperate Housewives Once upon a time Ringer Revenge Greys Anatomy The Vampire Diaries "Drama" - Awake Homeland Grimm Criminal Minds The Big C The Walking Dead Dexter True Blood Started watching Alcatraz but couldnt get into it Missing is another one not on long in states, with Ashley Judd, her son goes missing in Italy and is on a mission to find him, its ok, if there is nothing else on Also a sucker for Jeremy Kyle in the mornings with a cuppa while baby is having his nap!

Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
We only have the 4 (poverty) channels. JaneSmith do you watch Mad Men on one of the those? If so I need to know when it is on!!!!!!!
Re: Good Stuff on The Telly
Oh I wish Broodymissus! What I did was get someone's Sky ID (viewing card or account number) and you can watch it online. Or better still, download it and then watch it offline so there's no buffering taking place! I wonder will RTE bother with it now as Sky Atlantic have purchased it?
