I've started recording that. Is it any good? I'm the worst one to ask.I thought everyone loved Ride On Time I tuned in knowing nothing about it and being driven to distraction trying to place where I've seen one actress before . Anyway, it's weird, but I usually like weird. I can see why some might find it too daft to bother with. I'm sticking with it for now, though I am famous for liking shows and then giving up on them. It's making me think of a US show (that I better not name 'til you've watched your recording) that I watched as far as midway through season three (of four seasons). I made it through every season of True Blood and Bates Motel before I dropped them with the final two episodes to go. Gave up on Game of Thrones after 5 series, I think. More recently I didn't bother with the final ep of The Luminaries. Not enough Tamwar off Eastenders, far too much of woman with one facial expression, literally this : One long running show that I made it from the very beginning to the very end was Lost. It left me feeling that I wish I'd only watched the pilot ep and no more. Whenever I wonder if a show is worth sticking with, I think of all those wasted hours on Lost and ''I'm not going through that again'', so cut my losses to come babble on Haven instead. Suedehead: ''I've started recording that. Is it any good?'' You were only looking for a simple Yes or No, weren't you ?! Yes ( so far).
I watched The Last Wave over the last few days and thought it was pretty good. There were elements of other shows such as Channel 4's Misfits.

^^ I've not seen Misfits. The show that The Last Wave made me think of was The 4400. I liked it up to a point. It didn't get better as it went along.

Better than us on Netflix. Last wave was ok, not sure it really knew where it was going though, Misfits was very good for two seasons, then a change of actors made me lose interest. Cant believe you gave up on GofT and True Blood PCBear, and Lost was worth imo, but I know the ending split opinion, a bit like GofT, if I've got that far with something, I'm seeing it through to the bitter end.

I thought Misfits survived the change of cast fairly well, as did Being Human on BBC3.

Just finished Stumptown, very good, watching a show on Netflix called Zone blanche, but changed to Black spot, 1st season was excellent as only 8 eps, and just started the 2nd season, really enjoyed it so far.

The HeightsIt ended on a cliffhanger. One of the main (cleanshaven) characters was sat on the couch , receiving shocking news. In the next episode he was still on the couch but now has a full beard and is ten yrs younger (and played by another actor obvs). It threw me for a minute.

Umbrella Academy but think I'm doing it wrong. It's not grabbed me yet.

Watched Away with Hilary Swank on Netflix - saw it had some pretty harsh reviews, but personally I thought it was very enjoyable.

After months of taking a break we finally finished Season 3 of Hannibal. Actually one of the best TV shows I've ever seen - immaculately filmed, well-written, gorgeous and horrifying at the same time. Not sure I'll ever sleep again mind

Started Ratched on Netflix - first two episodes have me hooked. I am glad because Ryan Murphy can be a bit hit and miss, but this is definitely the former.
