General Television Series Thread

[Kev]

Might as well have one all purpose thread for tv series too.

I've watched a few recently and have to say I generally love Anerican television.

First off, gutted that Andy Whitfield died, was not expecting that, RIP to a great Spartacus


Recently I've enjoyed a few shows. Falling Skies was really very silly but quite enjoyable. Teen Wolf was surprisingly good, and the girl Allison is stunning. Thoroughly recommend that show to people who like that kind of Twilighty guff.

The American Wilfred lost it's way and got a bit weird, but it did lead me to check out the originall Australian show, which was brilliant, my favourite comedy in years. It is so worth checking out, I've watched both series right through twice now, so much funnier than the American remake which I think is shit by comparison.

The latest series of True Blood was very good, really enjoyed that too.

Next up, along with Dexter and Walking Dead of course I'm really looking forward to Terra Nova which starts, I believe, this month.

The trailer looks promising, it's the most expensive tv show ever made apparently, and it has dinosaurs so it must be good.

Here's the trailer.

I got tired of Wilfred too. The long running bit about Wilfred fucking the teddy bear got really old quickly. Don't have time to check out the Australian version now but might at some point.

The Australian Wilfred is brilliant.

Here's a couple clips





It's much better than the US version.

I only watch one programme and that is Dual Survival on the Discovery channel. I love those guys and they inspire me to make another jungle adventure next year at some point, but to take it a step further.

A programme I liked watching has recently finished, Beaver Falls, was on E4, good light hearted fun.
