You should watch Castle. Everyone should watch Castle. Saying that, the last series wasn't that great.


I love castle although I only caught the first few episodes of the new season. Gonna have to wait for the DVD now.

Dear makers of Fargo.

I particularly enjoyed this weeks episode, but nobody should ever have to see Martin Freeman having sex.

Thanks,
Everyone with eyes.

Eurgh season 3 finale of Revenge.

The laziest, most obvious twist they could do and been hoping they would never do it for the sheer ridiculousness of it but alas.

I was already dubious on the point of a 4th season and it just seems like they've done this for the sake of an extra season.

Worst thing they could have done.

Bloody stupid.

Despite the fact its obviously meant to be like a posh American Eastenders, its actually quite good in an incredibly camp, this is so stupid its funny way. But yeah, that "twist" was so bad. I liked the rest of the finale, apart from him still being alive. Just why?
BANDS I LIKE FOR BLOODSTOCK!!!

I watched the first episode of OITNB about a year ago but it didn't click with me at all. It should have done - it had boobs and everything - but it couldn't seem to make its mind up whether it wanted to be a serious drama or some kind of comedy so I never went back to it. The acting left an awful lot to be desired as well.

You should stick with it. It does have a weird mix of comedy and drama but it's mostly the latter and it get's really really good. There's a reason why this is being hyped all over the place (the only Netflix exclusive I've ever seen advertised on television).

For real, go back and watch a few more episodes and before you know it you'll be like Emily Bishop watching Breaking Bad.

My wife keeps mentioning that program too. Man, you Brits really liked it. I hope to find a way to watch that too some day.
