The new series against the old is like comparing Shakespear to Mr Benn. This new series is cheaply made, badly acted load of steaming shite. Its so bad even drink doesn't make it watchable
Looking for something new to watch on TV

If political drama is your thing, I've quite enjoyed Spin (Les Hommes de l'Hombre) on All4.
It's no 'Borgen' but it's not a bad attempt.
Also started watching 'Forever'. A 200 year old man working in a morgue in New York solving crimes. Fairly light hearted stuff and a bit formulaic but easy watching.

Meandered a little and wrapped up quickly when cancelled but something a little different to stare at.

Finding followups to successful progs being made which are really lame, badly made ripoffs, X Files, Heroes Reborn to name two!

I thought the same and persevered. It doesn't get that much quicker but ends quite well and surprising.

Well you know what I mean, season finale and all that?
Unfortunately, there has been plenty of series that I've not bothered with when they've returned or just fallen out with as they've gone on. Would I watch the 2nd season? Probably not unles the trailers show something just a little more speed and excitement.

Doesn't the wicked witch psycho lady excite you just a little bit?

Yep, 'Alice' - her lips and that glint in her eye are very sexy indeed. I like her character a lot along how they've fit her into the ongoing story.

Yep, I did like Forever and mourned a tad at its passing. Plenty of further potential there and better than so much crap that seems to be getting renewed. I also agree on Man Up His Own Castle - I persevered to episode 7 but then stopped. Too damn slow and meandering. Yon lassie was bonnie though...
Currently watching Deadwood on Dodgy's recommendation as I missed it first time round. Very good indeed but I prefer the more railroad-centric, Hell on Wheels, starring Anson Mount, Common & Robin McLeavy.
