I always used to watch series that I had started to the bitter end. Not any more. Dumped quite a few in the past 12 months. Have better things to do Still don't know if I should have watched Locke en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locke_(film)An interesting concept Yeah I watched it all the way through and I am still not sure why, it is an interesting concept and it is I guess ok but it lost my attention at times to the point of boredom. |

I reject more pilot episodes than I end up following, as it should be I guess.

I will usually give it more than a pilot. Some of course I don't even get through the programme

I know now to steer clear of anything by Marvel or DC Comics since I made the mistake of trying Agent Carter. That didn't last longer than 20 minutes, even in spite of starring Hayley Atwell.

You are missing a treat with Agents of Shield (Whedon). Give it a go

I could say the same to you about GoT!

Aha. I tried a few episodes !
Could well be the Whedon effect on Agents of Shield. He does make fine TV

I didn't like Buffy or Angel. I loved Firefly and Serenity (must watches).
I simply can't stand all that X-Men and Avengers stuff.

Loved Buffy and Angel, Firelfy and Serenity, Sarah Connor. Hated Dolls House
Is X-Men a Whedon job ? Doesn't look it, being rather naff

Colony - now at Ep.4, definitely worth watching. Josh Holloway (Lost) and Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break) are both very watchable as they inadvertently end up working against each other in a near-future invasion.

The Five. Wasn't sure what to expect, turns out to be a British drama about a boy who disappeared at age 5 and the Five friends who were responsible for his safety. Convoluted and difficult to follow, the end of Ep.2 ends up as a shocker. Definitely going to continue with this one.

Agree, the Five is so far turning out to be quite gripping throughout - I am up to about episode 6 now and it keeps getting better and better.

Finished watching series 2 of 'Better Call Saul' last week and was impressed, the second series is significantly better than the first, which I was a little disappointed with considering it is effectively a spin off prequel to Breaking Bad which was superb.

GoT last night was another epic episode. Can't say anything to spoil it but each episode is precious and a visual treat, not to mention making my skin crawl every time Ramsay makes an appearance. His level of evil makes Cersei seem like a stroppy babe in comparison.

Really enjoyed The Tunnel: Sabotage on Sky Atlantic. Na couldn't get on with it myself - probably the subtitles putting me off if I am entirely honest... |
