| What's on TV | |

| Definitely off topic! | |
| There's a lot of good stuff on the box right now - from dramas, | |
| to comedy's to talent shows. | |
| What are you all watching? Or do you disagree, and think | |
| everything on right now is rubbish!? :o :D | |
| I'm personally enjoying The X Factor right now (despite all the | |
| controversy surrounding last night), and they're showing re-runs | |
| of Fawlty Towers on Gold - John Cleese is so funny :D, amongst | |
| various others. | |
| Only thing that seems to always be missing is a Geocaching show | |
| - there are podcasts, so why can't we have a caching chat-show? | |
| :D ;D | |

| X Factor is not my thing, but it is on in the house sometimes so | |
| I cannot escape it. I bought 5 copies of the Rage Against The | |
| Machine track a couple of years back to help the anti-X Factor | |
| Christmas No1 campaign... Don't hate me for it ;D A lot of | |
| people follow the show so it must have an appeal that I just not | |
| grasping. | |
| I don't watch a lot of TV. I like a good movie. I watched the | |
| directors cut of Bladerunner on TV the other night. The few TV | |
| shows I do watch at the moment include the latest series of | |
| Whitechapel, though I have not followed it before this series. I | |
| watched the first episode of Agents of Shield the other night.. | |
| not bad, but I don't know if I will have time to carry on with | |
| that one. | |
| For comedy relief I occasionally watch an episode of Family Guy. | |
| We also have Big Bang Theory on quite a bit as it's Tom's | |
| favourite show of the moment. I do find that quite funny, but | |
| only because I see a little bit of all the main characters in | |
| myself. | |

| :D - I don't think an X Factor winner has had a Christmas | |
| number 1 since then, actually :o | |
| Ahh we really don't watch enough movies - which is a shame :( | |
| haven't heard of Bladerunner, will need to check it out :) | |
| Haven't ever watched The Big Bang theory despite many people | |
| saying how good it is - I'm sure I will one day :D | |

| X-factor - what is that :o | |
| Bladerunner - now that is a classic film, got the directors cut | |
| DVD :) | |
| It's that time of year, so the Mrs is glued to that dance | |
| programme that has just started on the BBC. | |
| I got an amazing deal from Amazon for 6 months of full | |
| LoveFilms, so catching up on those films or series I missed, | |
| either via Internet or post :) but it's due to end in Nov. | |

| I remember seeing Bladerunner at the cinema In 1982, its still | |
| way ahead of its time and fairly true to the book. This was one | |
| of Philip K. Dick's masterpieces and I think it was one of the | |
| few treatments of his books that he was involved with before he | |
| died. "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" is a great SF book. | |

| An update on my latest TV watching.. well, not a lot has changed | |
| :D The new series of Big Bang Theory is showing on E4 currently | |
| on Thursdays, so am watching that. | |
| A new american comedy series started this week straight after | |
| Big Bang, called Brooklyn Nine Nine, it was actually quite | |
| funny. I find US comedies quite often don't do it for me. | |
| Although half of me is american I still don't get some of their | |
| style of humour, like many of them do not seem to understand | |
| ours. After Brooklyn on the same channel they showed another | |
| comedy series 2 Broke Girls, after a few minutes I just had to | |
| turn off as I was just not getting any laughs.. I knew when it | |
| was supposed to be funny because of canned laughter, but I just | |
| didn't get it :P | |
| Not a lot of time for movies lately. I have been given a few by | |
| my brother for Christmas on DVD to get through sometime. One was | |
| 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter' which I have watched on two | |
| sittings yesterday and today as not enough time for a whole | |
| movie in one go. It was absolutely ludicrous, but a good fun | |
| action horror at the same time. | |

| I would be interested to know what the new Riddick film is like | |
| too. I have seen the first couple. Out of those two I actually | |
| preferred the first one, even though it had a much lower budget. | |
