Topic: Anything Good on TV ?

On the Penny Dreadful thread some have mentioned other good TV shows
We might like to check out, as they didn't want to hijack the thread. Why not
Post here any views on good ( or bad)  Programmes or series, worth watching. ajb007/biggrin

Anyone see The Flash this week on sky, I thought it a little simplistic in its story
May have worked better as a 90 minute introduction movie rather than a One
Hour show. Although I'll watch it a few more times before making a decision.  ajb007/smile

It would be great to find out what might be worth watching ?

Re: Anything Good on TV ?

Didn't catch The Flash (he went too fast). I'm really enjoying Gotham, though.

Haven't seen Broadwalk Empire or white collar. Are they any good?
What are they about ?  Mind you I've never watched Breaking Bad either.  ajb007/lol

Re: Anything Good on TV ?

The Walking Dead is probably the best show on TV for me at the moment....I also really like Peaky Blinders...can't praise either show highly enough...

Re: Anything Good on TV ?

Walking Dead, The Wire and now Penny Dreadful is on my list.

Game of Thrones has been and gone in my house for now, the mrs was a big fan however I avoided it as I'm sick of anything gladiator / warrior etc.

Same for me...Darabont has done a tremendous job - although I save the season up and watch them over a couple of days...

As with The Walking Dead - I save this series up and watch them back-to-back  ajb007/martini

I'm looking forward to the return of 'Elementary' next week - although I watch these when they are on...

I agree Darabont got the series off to a great start. And although he didn't stick with the show (for various reasons), it's still going strong.

Re: Anything Good on TV ?

Enjoying THE MISSING, despite not being a fan of James Nesitt's usually self-reverential acting style.

LEGENDS with Sean Bean has been cracking stuff, a clever twist on that style of US show. And great to see Bean as the lead.

And ELEMENTARY's back next week.  ajb007/smile

The Missing is brilliant... very good.

Looking fwd to Elementary, but I've been enjoying Australian Master chef (so much better than the UK version) and just started Portrait Artist of the year over on Sky Arts...

Also enjoying my usual contenders....Blue Bloods and Grey's Anatomy  ajb007/biggrin

Don't know if this will be any good but The Evil Dead is getting a TV show, with Bruce Campbell.  ajb007/wink
