Every night we watch an episode of Inspector Frost, we started with the very first series and we are now up to the 6th series. There are actually 15 series of it. I love Davis Jason:wub:

Me too...all for less than $10 per month. :thumbsup:

I never got into Inspector Frost...to me DJ will always be Del Boy...I can't picture him in any other role. Same with John Thaw...I never watched Inspector Morse because to me he'll always be Jack Regan. :wub:

Stupid I know. :o

That's what I thought when I first started watching but his "Frost" character grows on you and also has some of his Del-Boy quirks. The only problem I have is it can be very depressing sometimes, it's made me cry:(

Off the Map

Medical Greys, style, set on a fancy island.

Basically, it's the same tripe, on a funky island, but the characters are even more obnoxious and annoying.

This was really bad...the scenery was lovely though, oh well.

And Dexter, the cameo's on that show are great, but I still can't get my head around the main dude is married to his sister character on the show :lol:

I watched the first episode of Off The Map...it didn't strike me as very good. I haven't bothered watching it since.

Not for long, the incest must have gotten to them, they are divorcing, although I think the marriage may have been one of convenience anyway

of convenience?

They're all a little odd anyway...but I do like the Robocop chap, he's kind of amusing.

Got to catch up with the first two episodes yesterday.
Good point, it is as you say "Very similar to the first series" more of the same, and I enjoyed the first lot. Its strong suit is in really depicting what it was like to be a slave, and have no say in your destiny, and for some to adopt a pride in the lot you are given as a coping mechanisim.

Bad point, it is as you say "Very similar to the first series" more of the same,
nothing really new being added here.

I just want to know if Bones and Booth are ever going to get it on. :frown:

Most probably although I can't see the attraction to her. She is so "I've got a stick up my butt" in personality and even when she laughs it doesn't reach the eyes. Can only imagine what she would be like between the sheets. Booth would really need to be superstud to make her enjoy it.

The Chicago Code

A little bit cheesy, cop drama looking into city corruption.

Kind of fun though and had a decent pace.

Justified.

That's back for a second series...about the chap in the south who's a marshal, cop type person.

I don't know if I can be bothered though, started to like the series but it just got really tedious and boring towards the end of the first series. No idea what the books are like though, anyone read any?

I watched "Mr. Sunshine", the new Matthew Perry sitcom. Pretty poor stuff. Far inferior to "Cougar Town" which it has replaced in the schedule.
Also watched "Traffic Light" on Fox. Liked it a lot. Nothing earth shattering but at least there were a few laughs in there and the characters look like they have some mileage in them.

Episodes.

Bit slow in the first episode, but really loving it now that it's a few episodes in, probably one of the funniest new shows going...about a bunch of Brit writers that get brought over to LA to redo their show and find it getting changed about without any control.
