I love Irish accents, they're brilliant. I also quite like South Asian accents, especially female accents. I know a girl from Pakistan who has one of the most brilliant accents you've ever heard!
Funny you should mention TV shows, I'm in the process of deciding what to watch on TV and since Virgin Media has a ****e selection of programmes, I'm considering watching an episode of Terra Nova we have recorded. Anyone watch it? Is it any good?
I still need to watch The Wire, Breaking Bad, Mad Men and Boardwalk Empire. So much TV, so little time.
I looked briefly but couldn't see the Wire, typical Virgin Media. Rubbish selection. However, they do have Terry Pratchett's Going Postal which I might watch some time! I watched Terra Nova, seemed quite interesting. Not a big fan of dinosaurs really (though the first two Jurassic Parks were good), but I like the concept of humanity rebuilding itself on an untouched and wild Earth.
Not as good as The Walking Dead. Well, I´ve never watched The Wire so I wouldn´t actually know but The Walking Dead is right up there.
The thing I'd don't like about American series is they never know when to finish them. I liked Lost and Prison Break but gave both up before the end. Sky Atlantic in theory has great programmes but I can't be bothered to watch things for years with no resolution to the stories. Perhaps it's to do with getting older and not having time to waste
The only things I watch on actual TV are the mindless comedies that repeat on Comedy Central and E4. All the best shows are on HBO in America, and I "acquire" them online.
