Favorite TV Shows

[prayfordaylight]

OHHH I'm slowly making my way through them as well. Can't miss them this time around. If I do, LOL then I will buy them on dvd. Can't get enough!!!!

Miami Vice DVDs are really cheap - about $10-15/season.

I'm SO freaking disappointed with Downton Abbey's season finale. I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it yet, but I watch TV to escape, not get depressed.

Very disappointing! I saw Dan Stevens in a play here in February, and already knew about the ending, but resisted the temptation to stage door afterwards and express my disappointment

I'm going to visit Highclere Castle this Summer on a trip to England, and am pretty excited about that. It will be cool to walk those grounds, and see where it is filmed.

Does anyone here watch Call the Midwife? I like that one a lot as well.

And am of course really happy that Mad Men is back on. Hello Don Draper!

Has anyone been watching "North America" on the Discovery channel? It's a documentary and really interesting! They are catching animals and nature doing very interesting stuff. I think they said it took them 7 years to make it. Tom Selleck narrates. It's on on Sunday nights at 8 pm central time. For me, must watch!

Thanks for reminding me, Brooke. I saw it advertised, but haven't watched it. It sounds like it would be similar to that Earth series the Sigourney Weaver narrated several years ago.

That sounds right up my street, Brooke. I will see if I can find it online.

Is anyone getting excited for Under the Dome?

What is Under the Dome?

I meant to say earlier that I watched the first episode of the spy thriller The Americans a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed it. I adore Matthew Rhys and I can tell it's a series that I could really get into. Can't wait to go home and catch up with it!

Under The Dome is a Stephen King book that has been made into a 13 part series for television, starting June 24, I think. I was a big Stephen King fan in my teens and as a young adult, but finally realized I needed to venture out more. I have not read Under The Dome, but wish I had, as I really like comparing the books to the movies/series.

I will admit, Stephen King books rarely come off well when made into movies, although there are a few I have enjoyed. But, just like going past the scene of a car accident, I can rarely not watch. He's involved with this one, so here's hoping.

OHH I've heard of that one before and will watch it when it comes on. I love those thriller/horror books. I adore Stephen King. My favvie is the Shinning book/show/movie. LOL. I would love to watch Under The Dome though.

Thanks for the info, Cathy - sounds good! I like Stephen King. I love Misery (both the book and the film.) Watched it numerous times and still find it darkly amusing. He's a great writer. I'd like to get into more of his books.
