^^ the tracy ulman show was ancient wasn't it?
^ probably why canadians are so funny, common background :) why don't you get any more? probably because we stopped making good shows. :)
the office was funny, bit restrained though.
Jaaaam and Chris Morris stuff might not have made it across the atlantic.
you should check some out if it didn't

^ Nope, just started, third episode now. One sketch is ISIS model bureau, so definately not ancient :)
Seriously need to see it, very original! It is on IPlayer atm.

Ok, Sense8 just became pointless. I'll stay with it till the end of season 1, but unless they manage to keep me awake I won't look for season 2.

Watched the first episode of the 'X-Files' reboot and I thought it was like it never left. Always a big fan and now where they took the story is great.

On Netflix I started on 'Awake' only one season saw it on a scifi watch list. Pretty clever show I can see why the main stream didn't take to it. Not many scifi parallel dimension story's do.

Sense8: finished season 1 last night. As I rightly supposed, nothing happens. Goodbye, Wachowskis.

Penny Dreadful: a couple of episodes.
They told me is better than Crimson Peak, which is the best Del Toro has ever done (and I'm not a Del Toro fan). So far I don't think so. Cinematography is fantastic, and Green and Dalton act the hell out of their characters. But at the end of the second episode I wasn't really interested in the story. I might try another episode or two, don't know.

Stan lee's - 'Lucky Man' after a couple episodes pretty good, I would say best treatment he has recieved most are just to cornball for me. 7.5/10

'Nightmare Worlds of H.G. Wells' His series of short stories and after the first two episodes really good. 8.5/10

I still did not finish the first season of Bloodline due to time but wow, it is getting intense and morphing into a Psycho Thriller. Just a couple of them left for me.

"The Blacklist", deep into season two. The plot twists, turns, bounces back and forth. The conspiracy never ends...and who can say no to a good conspiracy? I am very entertained at the moment. Had my doubts in the beginning of this season though, but now I am glued. :)

Binge watched Peaky Blinders yesterday (holiday if you wonder how a man did that on monday). It's quite astonishing to be honest, and 2nd season is better than the first.

^ Been watchin the reboot of x-files and loving it, wish there were more than 6 episodes.

Finished Season 1 of Peaky Blinders and really enjoying. There was a cliff hanger at the end of the season and while looking at IMDB to see if the show is still going and how many seasons kinda spoiled a bit for myself. :(

Also watched the TWD mid season starting backup where I got a bit of a spoiler just randomly on a news site another bummer :(
