    Urgh. Nearly at the mid-season break of "Gotham" Season 2. After a very good start, has just turned back to the crap show season 1 was.

    1 episode of "Mad Men" Season 1 to go, At the moment can't see why this is such a massive American show, but hopefully the future seasons will pick up with proper story lines.

    Watched "The Life And Times Of Tim" Season 2, and that was very good again. Love the humor. Little 15 minute Animated episodes about a man failing in everything he does.

    H2 In Search of Aliens, fascinating stuff, were the Nazis really on the verge of creating a time machine?

    We are nowhere near a time machine.

    Just finished watching this boxset which my daughter got me for my birthday

    please log in to view this image

    I've always been fascinated by Hitler's Third Reich and to this day I still find it incredible that such an evil man was allowed to rise to power. Really graphic images and original films, many in colour on these DVD's and would recommend everyone to view these if they are able. Hitler's henchmen were just as evil as him and the atrocities commited beggars belief. It is also amazing how the 'Gestapo', a relatively small secret police force controlled a nation of millions.

    Just when you thought you knew everything about the Nazis ....................

    Just watched the first episode of 11.22.63, the mini series of the Stephen King book. (For those who don't know, it's about time travel and the main character going back in time to prevent the assassination of JFK, with all the various paradoxes that time travel presents etc)

    Looks quite good from episode 1, well made, and should get better and better, my potential problem is that I have read the book and I would find it hard to believe that the complexities and subtleties of the story will translate to TV...

    Worth a look though.

    I've got it on my list. I like Stevie King, so have been interested to see it.

    I see the next series of "Ripper Street" is to be the last. Not surprised really, there's not a lot left to clear up!

    It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 11. As funny as ever!

    Mad Men Season 2. Still don't get why this is such a massive show. It's just pretty mundane.

    Watched the first 4 episodes of Daredevil Season 2. Been a brilliant start. All 4 episodes have been very good, dark and brutal.

    Might start Mid Morning Matters Series 2 today, to break up the blood and violence with some of the best comedy around. Can't wait to see new AP content.

    Garfunkle & Oates Season 1. Pretty funny. A female version of Flight Of The Concords. Not as funny, but still pretty amusing.

    House of Cards Season 4, first half has been very good again.

    You're The Worst Season 1. Really surprisingly funny. A look at a modern relationship between two totally noncommittal people who hate everyone else.

    Daredevil season 2. Started off quite good but I'm finding the stuff with Elektra a bit tedious and boring, wish they just carried on with the Punisher storyline.

    100% agree. We have seen....6 or 7 episodes. Early Punisher battles were class, Elektra is so annoying and boring story-line. The court case stuff is pretty boring too. Still enjoying it, but in comparison to the early episodes. Not near as good.

    The Punisher was the best thing about the start of season 2, they should have kept the action going a bit longer, since Elektra arrived it has slowed right down and I don't really care too much about it.
