Garnet Psaltery 7,992 Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 I found this series from 2011 in one of Amazon's pay channels (some of which have very meagre offerings). Going by the first episode it's well done, with interesting characters, a good story, and with time to absorb detail. It isn't half as frantic as the trailer. Link to post Share on other sites

Gage Wirefly 2,348 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Currently on Season 3 of Humans, the final one. Shame it ended after 3, it could have used 2 more to tie it off , great show in either case. Link to post Share on other sites

You know it was a spin-off from a European one -- I might have liked it even better. Scandinavian one I think. Edited January 20 by Luna Bliss Link to post Share on other sites

Orwar 19,188 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 43 minutes ago, Scylla Rhiadra said: It's an historic event. US presidents are changed out every 4-8 years, I don't see why this is any more 'historical' than the inauguration of Franklin Pierce. Do you think that, in a hundred years' time, people are going to look back to today and say 'this was especially significant' or 'this was an important turning point in US history'? People are a bit liberal with calling things 'historical', in my opinion. Personally I'm watching something that contains both history and cooking! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

As it happens, yes, quite possibly. And I'm not going to be around in a hundred years. This is history -- a term which is not limited to only "earthshaking events" -- that is going to matter a great deal to me now, as well as to a few billion other people on this planet.

Scylla Rhiadra 29,509 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Just now, Garnet Psaltery said: @Scylla RhiadraSo, what are you watching today? The forums? 😊 I did, in fact, watch a fair amount of the inauguration, and most especially the speeches -- which, I was relieved to see, mostly hit the right notes, including those delivered by Republicans. The whole exercise has left me feeling a teeny bit better about the future. Link to post Share on other sites

Garnet Psaltery 7,992 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 (edited) @Scylla Rhiadra I should have known better than to ask. [Edited out post for another topic.] Edited January 20 by Garnet Psaltery 1 Link to post Share on other sites
LittleMe Jewell 38,048 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Most recently though, I binged my way through Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the spin-off Angel. I never watched those back in the day and decided it was finally time I did. All of the normal "fall" tv shows are finally back though (or will be by end of month), so I'll be going back to watching those weekly shows. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

[Edited out post for another topic.] Well, more in keeping with the spirit of the thread, I can tell you that I have been binging recently on Joanna Lumley's various travelogues for ITV and the BBC -- most recently (i.e., last night) her "In the Land of the Northern Lights." She's just wonderful, and I like the way her narratives focus as much on the trivial as upon the monumental. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Garnet Psaltery 7,992 Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 Not quite as entertaining as Anno 1790, as the chief player was lopped from a tree, but it's in the same vein, and the costumes are pretty. Also there's the cutest urchin ever in the second episode. Link to post Share on other sites
Ceka Cianci 8,012 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I started to watch Fraiser again.. I don't know what it is, but some series I put on a loop and rewatch as soon as the one before it is finished.. I love, King of Queens, Last man Standing, Fraiser and sometimes will put Friends in there.. Maybe it has something to do with looking back on those time periods or something.. I only turn them on to help put me to sleep.. which ,they do that very well and I get really good sleep.. Aaaanyways, I have Fraiser on cycle now.. This show just never gets old for me.. It was so well done, I think.. This is where Niles Doppelganger shows up at Fraisers loft withDaphnie. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
