Just a shame CBS can't seem to show it on schedule. I've given up trying to record on DVR, have to wait till the next day and watch on-demand.

I only watch the Blacklist because of James Spader - the female lead is terrible. Seriously, female leads - study how Scully did it!

Hostages - gave up on episode 2.
Hello Ladies - after 2 episodes lost it's funny - doubt it will be renewed.

All the new comedy shows I tried - trophy wife, goldbergs - done.

As long as there are zombies and new ways to kill them I'll never give up on Walking Dead.

American Horror Story - the young people on it are just awful. The older ones are great.

Anyone watching The Returned on Sundance? Watched the first episode - very interesting.

the Frog show? Yes, it's very good, but I thought it got a little slow and tedious towards the last couple of episodes.

Frog show :rofl:

Yes - that show. I just watched the first - will watch the second this week. First kinda drags too.

Have you seen all episodes? Tell me it's worth it to watch to the end.

Yeah, I thought so. I rather liked the show, but thought it could have been wrapped up a episode or two quicker. Saying that, took me forever to finish watching it as I don't get that much time to watch something with subtitles :lol:

Anyway, "Cross Lines".

Bit late to the party with this as it's kind of done I think. Has Donald Sutherland in it and a few other recognisable faces.

It's basically a random bunch of cops from the EU with an American, making up a European cop task force, bit like Interpol, but anyway, quite fun if some what daft.

First double episode starts out as a serial killer crossing borders. Bit dry but well paced and potential for interesting back stories.

Same here - watch most of the telly whilst I'm working so this one I need to pay attention.

Cross Lines starts out well but it gets REALLY stoopid as it goes on. Just the pretty faces and locations make it worth watching, Has not been renewed.

I thought the Canadians picked it up?

Anyway, a lot of shows are showing signs of fatigue. I'm impressed Hostages has lasted as long as it has and who is still watching Grimm, Lost Girl, Once Upon a Time, Hart of Dixie, Revenge, Betrayal, Broadwalk Empire, Beauty and the Beast, Homeland, Saf3 and other shows that are past it?

I'm still enjoying Boardwalk Empire.

I would live to watch Broadwalk Empire...but I've only had time to see the first couple of episodes. I haven't seen many of the programs you have listed...the ones I have seen are...

Hostages...gave up after the 1st episode.
Homeland...midway through season 2 I could no longer sit through another episode. Watching Claire Danes is akin to having matchsticks pushed down my fingernails. The whole plot is implausible IMO.

Revenge...enjoyed this until recently. Now I'm losing interest...fast.

I enjoyed the first series and a bit, but felt it dropped right off after that :o

Well I would like to know who Red John is on The Mentalist as the list of suspects narrows down, however, it has been coming on way too late for me thanks to Sunday night football. Twits. :frown:

I LOVE this show. Just binge watched up to last Sunday's episode - can't believe only 2 episodes left - on the edge of my seat here!
