I have been impressed with Aussie kids shows, so I'm downloading this for my kid, but it looks too much like a porn title for me to be 100% confident in doing so.

Helix

It's another crap sci-fi virus type show, but I'm really enjoying it a few episodes in. So no doubt, it'll get really crap and then canned :/

Watched the first one last night. Really not bad for a SyFy show. Worth another look at least.

Also working our way through Fringe on Netflix. More easy, enjoyable TV.

Chicago PD

This is a odd one as it's on a different channel over here to Chicago Fire, but made by the same folks, in Canada apparently.

Anyway, it's definitely a cross over show as the main cop and another one were the cops that were in CF. The bar owners that the cops hang out in are the fire fighter owners of the bar in CF and the EMT's are the same from the other show too.

Over all, it was a pretty mediocre and slow show, but willing to give it another punt after the first episode, hoping it warms up a bit more.

I thought last night's episode was better than the first. Spin offs/cross overs don't usually work out.

Black Sails.

Anyone catch it? It's supposed to be the story before Treasure Island map comes about....something different at least.

Just noticed The Following, is back for a second series....about the serial killer cult thing.

Didn't think that was necessary, but might give it another punt. The cops need to get a bit smarter this time around as they were annoying dumb last time.

The first bit was rather gruesome...I hate all the stabbing and slashing shown in this program.

In two minds on this one, its downloaded, but last season Bacon's character was poor, police were useless and way to many deus ex machina gang members turn up just at the right time in the right job. Took any sense of threat away.

I must be immune to this kind of thing - I kept hearing how gruesome it was and how some people watched it with one eye open - didn't phase me in the least. Maybe if I found the main character threatening I may have thought so.

I won't be watching it - it was terrible last season. I mean, we all know the FBI are incredibly inept, but these guys were like the stooges

Liking Blacklist more and more - due to James Spader - great character.

Anyone catch the new season of Justified? I record them all and binge watch and wondered if this season is up to par.

Anyone going to watch Rake? It's on Fox and a remake of the Aussie show show early last year, which was hilarious so not sure how an American remake is going to be.

I don't mind seeing shootings on films and TV. One stabbing is OK...but multiple stabbings and slashings to one person...no thank you.

I am liking Blacklist more too...and yes it's down to James Spader. Still can't come to grips with the female character though.
