Favourite TV Series

Good start to new BBC drama "South Ridings"

Tomorrow night 5th episode of "Outlaws".

 

Anyone seen Mad Dogs on SKY with John Simm, Philip Glennister and co? 2 episodes so far but enjoying it.

 

Yeah i have, i like it and what i like is i dont really know whats going to happen next.

 

Just seen on BBC1 Lead Balloon was showing.

I love Jack Dee and Lead Balloon is one of my favourite series.

 

Currently going through Six Feet Under. So beautifully written.

Also enjoyed Breaking Bad recently.

 

Boardwalk Empire is pretty much the only program i get to watch regularly. Top notch:sign15:

 

I'm enjoying watching being human recently more than I usally do.

 

Recently got into Modern Family and The Middle.

 

I've been watching My Family with Robert Lyndsay.

This seems to have been going on for ever and I can't understand how it keeps getting made.

 

:sign15: Cheese.com

 

Watched Ken Dodd tonight he was side splitting.:biggrin:

CSI tonight, good one. The new member of the team , reminds a lot of somebody I used to know.:naughty:

 

Anyone watching The Killing? It's superb.

 

No, I'm no good at multitasking.

 

I didn't think anyone watched My Family anymore.

 

I watched yesterday.

 

I watch it out of morbid fascination. And because Janie would so get it.

It's abysmal though. It must cost money to make, so I can't beleive it's funded every season.

 

It continues to get made because people watch it. :dismay:

 

The BBC don't know that I watch it.

I watch it with the curtains drawn and the lights off, so nobody can find out.

 

Wrote off the new comedy Raising Hope on sky a while ago without really seeing it, but recently got into it. It's actually pretty funny

 

Tonight is a bad night for terrestrial , so looks I will have to watch N.C.I.S and C.S.I.

Tonight is always an exciting night in Emmerdale , so that is a must.

Opps , whats the time ?

 

More specifically, it continues to get made because it continues to earn revenue through either advertising sales and/or media distribution (DVD, streaming).

Just like the foosball, it's all about the money...

 

I thought it was all repeats anyway.

 

its the bbc. so its basically contingent on how much back slapping old white guys in suits can handle.

or how many emails points of view receive

 

You should watch "Weeds" on Sky Atlantic it's

 

I don't have SKY in the living room , have it in the back room.

I will get it swapped around one day when I can be bothered.

 

Perhaps you could put a comfy chair in the back room for when you want to watch Sky :rolleye1:

 

2nd season of Sparticus God of the Arena just ended, quality show

 

Actually, it's on the BBC, so it's precisely because it doesn't need to generate revenue that it survives. ITV would have cut My Family, Grown Ups and Two Pints Of Lager and a Packet of Crisps years ago.

If you've never heard of the above, you needn't find out about them. Suffice it to say they are guileless shyte.

 

When is Blakes Seven coming back ?

 

Nice...The Republicans are trying to slash ANY funding for the perceived to be 'librul' public broadcasting system here which makes some very interesting shows and informative broadcasts (National Public Radio and the NOVA series come first to mind), yet the BBC funds tv programs no one seems to have any interest in...

Frustrating...

 

Hogans Heroes - classic

Lost in Space - from the 1970's as well... classic

My Favourite Martian - classic

Alias Smith and Jones _ the yank one not the Alas Smith and Jones from UK which was a classic as well..

The Beverley Hillbillies - Classic

how you doin Fritz - been in the Cellar lately?

My Family is a British television comedy, created and initially co-written by Fred Barron, produced by DLT Entertainment and Rude Boy Productions, and broadcast by the BBC. Ten series have so far been broadcast on BBC One in the United Kingdom between 2000 and 2010, with Christmas specials broadcast from 2002 onwards. An eleventh series has been commissioned.[2][3][4] My Family was voted 24th in the BBC's "Britain's Best Sitcom" in 2004 and was the most watched sitcom in the United Kingdom in 2008.[5]

Set in Chiswick in west London, it stars Robert Lindsay as Ben Harper, Zoë Wanamaker as his wife Susan, and Kris Marshall, Daniela Denby-Ashe and Gabriel Thomson as their children, Nick, Janey and Michael. Since the show’s debut, several characters have left and, equally, several new characters have been introduced. The character of Janey left in 2002; however, she returned in 2004 and has continued to remain on the show since. Kris Marshall’s character, Nick, left in 2005 and has not returned. The character of Abi, as played by Siobhan Hayes, was introduced in 2002 and left in 2008. The characters of Roger and Alfie were introduced in 2003 and 2005, respectively, as played by Keiron Self and Rhodri Meilir.

The tenth series began airing on BBC One on 9 July 2010 and concluded on 27 August 2010. Two episodes from Series 10 are bonus episodes on the DVD.

Series 11 was jointly filmed with series 10 and is expected to air in the spring of 2011.

 

Totally agree on Hogan's Heroes...

Yah, great Pads...made more Channa Masala last night, but my last batch was better. Tried dried chickpeas and though soaked for 24 hours, still came out a bit 'crisp'.

 

I've never seen Hogan's heroes, but if it's as good as Hogan Knows Best, I'll be all over it.

Celebrity Juice makes me snort snot bubbles with laughter.

 

Thats "Laugh-toor" if you are in America
