Re: Tele

GOT had been quite slow this season but it's really picked up in the last couple of episodes.

Did anyone see the last 2 episodes of Outlander? Probably the most disturbing thing I've seen on TV....

Re: Tele

The Borgias just got canned.

I have to say it peaked last season and this season (while it has had its moments) has struggled to get going. Will be missed though.

Re: Tele

I've started on season 1 and will see how it goes - I figure it will follow the fate of most US TV series and get progressively flogged to death over time.

Re: Tele

Here are some things I worked out how to do on the Roku:

1) Youtube - For reasons unknown the Roku doesn't have a Youtube Channel (there appears to be some dispute over the fact google want Roku...

Re: Tele

No I haven't. Thanks for that - my better half likes medical dramas so i'll give it a look.

Re: Tele

Stuff I am watching/tried watching:

Vikings - Mixed feelings about this. The production values are great and - except for a smattering of historical inaccuracies - they did a good job of capturing...

Re: Tele

David Morrissey has showed up as the Governor in 'The Walking Dead' and I think he is doing a great job. His accent is a bit strange in places but he's developed a kind of psychopathic stare which...

Re: Tele

I just looked this up and apparently the second series has been on for a while. It hasn't been doing as well in the ratings though.

Yeah the bad guy turns out to be Norwegian - apparently that's...

Re: Tele

I confess I'm torn. I felt underwhelmed by the first episode (it was cheesy in a Terra Nova kind of way and the plot made no sense) but I think there was enough there for me to continue watching.

Re: Tele

Keep an eye out for the remake of I Claudius on HBO/BBC (original was brilliant but seriously dated now). Also 'World Without End' which should be coming this fall.



The Showtime one is focused...

Re: Tele

Last time we discussed this I was the only one who liked it. Personally I loved seeing Jeremy Irons ham it up and the other characters like Machiavelli, Savonarola and the foppish Neapolitan prince...

Re: Tele

What what what ?!?!?!

It's bloody brilliant.

Love the dialogue. 'We’ve got to find these goat ****ers before night fall' & 'What? Is it more embarrassing than being tied to a stake covered in...

Re: Tele

That is really low. I go over that consistently pretty much every month. The Comcast allowance is 250gb, which I thought might be an issue. However despite hammering my connection every month...

Re: Tele

Last episode was pretty good as well when it all kicked off at the farm.



The prison showed up at the end - as did the zombie killing wench with the pet zombies and the katana. That means -...

Re: Tele

I actually liked that one because the Conan Doyle story it's based on - 'A Scandal in Bohemia' wasn't very good; Holmes gets outwitted way too easily. The plot in the updated one was all over the...

Re: Tele

Well, Terra Nova got cancelled. Probably needed to be put out of it's misery as the dialogue was extremely cheesy and the story wasn't really going anywhere. It was costing a massive amount per...

Re: Tele

Yeah - I gave up after episode one. I just felt it was a bit lacking in humour and I struggled to like any of the characters.

Walking Dead is much slower paced this season (except for the first...

Re: Tele

Been watching Once Upon a Time which is not too bad (though I am wondering how they are going to keep it going for a whole series). Is it worth watching the Grimm show as well or are they too samey?...

Re: Tele

Apparently for Walking Dead season 2 there were a fair few personnel changes on the writing team so there were worries about what the quality would be like this time around. I watched the first...

Thanks. :thumbsup:

I was ill with a stomach bug on Friday so -based on this recommendation - I thought I would check out the first series on Netflix. I ended up watching 6 episodes back to back -...

Re: Tele

I heard elsewhere that the pilot was really slow and then it gets going in the following episodes with plenty of sex and violence which should go down well in my household. I'm hoping it's going to...

Anyone got a Roku box? Been a bit of a gamechanger in my household as I have downloaded a lot of shite UK TV and have been streaming it to the TV from my computer. Managed to get the yanks addicted...
