I just downloaded the last three episodes of The Walking Dead, and I have absolutely no clue why I did so. Its just not a good show. They need to figure out a way to wrap it up this year, but that will never happen.

It was the final episode of the 2nd series of Whitechappel last night, gutted thats over, hope the bring out a 3rd series next year.

Getting right into Homeland now also, this is gonna be superb sunday night viewing.

Another worth catching thats started recently is Kidknap & Ransom starring Trevor Eve, caught the first couple of episodes, looks promising.

I find every accent in that show to be strained and fake, it really gets on my nerves (yet I still watch it).
I agree it needs to be wrapped up, but with it's current popularity it's gonna keep going.

Am I the only person who enjoys Walking Dead then?

I think it's a good solid show. I'd like a bigger budget and more varied locations but they only have they can't afford to work with.

The special effects are always decent and I like the characters.

Just don't see the point of the black dude though. He has had about two lines in this whole series and has been totally ignored.

Maybe with Dale gone he might get some screen time now.

Jeff Corwen on Amimal Planet. I like his show a lot. I learn something new every episode and he is funny in a geeky/corny way.

I didn't realize that Dual Survival and Man Woman Wild had both been cancelled after two seasons.

Man Woman Wild was enjoyable enough for a terrible show, but I get that only people like me who have a strange interest in survival shows (except for the truly terrible Bear Grylls show) would like it.

Dual Survival was actually pretty good though.

Walking Dead was pretty slow in the first half of the second season but has got me re-engaged over the last two episodes and anxious for the finale. Breaking Bad is a great show for those of you that haven't heard.

I think they are both really fun shows. I agree about Bear being a bit pants. I liked him at first, but compared to Survivor man he is just 'reality' survival.

I was watching that Jack Dee series Lead Balloon yesterday and I really enjoyed it. His character seems like a more dishonest variation of me. I don't fib like he does, but I definitely relate to the almost constant pessimism and cynicism.

Not laugh out funny or anything, but well written IMO.

Fucking hell. I was watching Dual Survival last night and the non-hippy guy cut up his own arm and then congealed it by setting it alight with a type of gunpowder. That is so hardcore. What an absolute warrior.

I got the first series of 'Breaking Bad' off our kid the other day and watched all 7 over 2 nights. It's not over here in the UK and dont know if it is planned to come over, but what a show, really good. Hopefully getting the 2nd series tonight or tomorrow!

I have been watching Big Bang Theory and How I met your mother - naked man episode, also CSI whilst I was on holiday. It was something I would not normally watch but they were good.
