NCIS and SVU.

Also watch "Chasing Classic Cars" on the Velocity Channel.

The rest is utter crap.

Re: Tele
 

Where did you watch that?

Re: Tele
 

It's on Netflix, sorry. Perhaps it doesn't belong in 'tele'.

You weren't to know about this thread. ;)

Thank you madam :bow:

"How Not To Live Your Life", a quirky little British comedy on Audience Network, quite enjoying it. The writer and lead character previously had a small part in The Mighty Boosh as Johnny Two Hats :lol:

Major Crimes.

It seems it is a spin off of The Closer, or more rather a rebranding. Trout face has left the team and someone else is now in charge, so it has a new name.

I rather liked the Closer when it began, but it quickly got rather stale, so I don't know about this one, got it lined up and will check it out, but don't think I'll hold out much hope.

What about any of the other new shows? Grimm is back for series two, but I just don't have the will power to bother with it any more.

Re: Tele
 

Well it's shit.

Once the old bint left, they should have just ended it, this isn't a spin off, it's just renamed, with a new boss woman, who is really naff.

Everyone else in the squad also should retire because they are donkeys years old.

Bullet in the Face.

It's a quirky Canadian comedy drama, about a hitman who ends up working for the police.

It's really strange, but it is quite amusing, the first episode at least and certainly worth a couple of episodes at least to see how it turns out.

Eddie Izzard is a guest star too.

Re: Tele
 

I didn't realise it was a comedy drama. I read the other day that it was one of the most violent series ever shown.

Re: Tele
 

It's not that violent, certainly not gory.

It's very cheesy kind of ham violence, lots of shooting, but all very in the A-Team style of cheese.

The comedy is very dry, if it weren't for recognising all the Canadian actors, you'd think it was a cheesy UK drama trying to be set in the US :D

Re: Tele
 

Copper

A BBC America production, set just after the US civil war...bunch of Irish cops, sorting out the murders and robberies and being slightly dodgy at the same time.

It's surprisingly not shit, well worth giving it a few episodes, as the some of the characters are a little stiff, but might have time to grow. Certainly has a interesting storyline to start out with and half decent looking sets.

A lot of faces you'll recognise from various UK and Canadian shows.

Re: Tele
 

Just saw the tail end of this show called "How not to live your life" - It looks bloody hilarious - very inappropriate! Anyone seen this show? I think it's an old show.

Re: Tele
 

Yes it's good :lol:
