2021 TV Watching.

I've finally started watching series 2 of Pushing Daisies. Whoever thought a series centring around solving murder cases by bringing the dead back to life (briefly) could be so heartwarming? It's wonderful.

I have two episodes left of His Dark Materials series 2 (I'm loving it) and enjoyed series 3 of Westworld.

I also started watching Always Sunny in Philadelphia again (I only saw up to series 4 and a few other episodes). I forgot how low budget the first series was. It's still good, but definitely picks up from series 2.

I adore IASIP. It was my reason for getting Netflix and I watched the entire series twice. Hoping to catch McElhenney’s Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet, but it hasn’t appeared on any of the channels I subscribe to.

I keep meaning to check out Pushing Daisies but haven’t gotten around to it. I’ll watch that next, I think. I loved Wonderfalls, which is massively underrated IMO. It’s by the same people As Pushing Daisies and has Lee Pace in it too.

I'm a great fan of Bryan Fuller's earlier work. If you haven't seen them I recommend Dead Like Me and Wonderfalls. Both kind of defy description.

Wonderfalls is something else I have on DVD but haven't watched yet. I'll look up Dead Like Me too!

Those who felt that the Pacific Rim was a bit of disappointment I recommend checking out Netflix animated Pacific Rim Black. It is very different take and the series has more depth then the movies ever had. There are a lot of holes that needs to be filled, but they only have limited time to do it. I personally looking forward for the next season.

 

[Dave Vicks]

Currently Season 1 of FRINGE.

 

[Droflet]

Hang in there, Dave. As I've said, season one is a tad conventional but it develops into a ripper series. Enjoy.

Is that the one with the rotating crystal skull at the beginning.? Used to frighten us as kids that one.

Up next Arthur C Clarke's MYSTERIOUS WORLD. Documentary

Where are you watching that? As @paranoid marvin said, for some of us that would be a serious nostalgia trip.

 

[Dave Vicks]

Yes crystal Skull.DVD.

Finished watching season 8 of Spiral and thoroughly enjoyed it. The ending, however, would indicate that this is the last season. It’s maybe not a bad thing. Better to go out on top than carry on and ultimately die a slow death as storylines run out of steam.

It is the last season.

I haven't seen it yet. I'm worried that main characters will be killed off. (I'm happy for you to say yes/no to that, in spoiler tags.)

I think telling you one way or another would spoil your enjoyment. If, for example, a character was in jeopardy but you knew they survived, it would mean no tension in the outcome. Note: do not take that statement for anything more than it is - an example.

What I will tell you is that Roban is not in season 8 but this isn’t a spoiler. Just in case you don’t recall, he retired in season 7. I missed him but it was still a good season.

I actually don't like that kind of tension, where it's a character I like (which includes all the long-term cast). I found plenty enough tension re-watching earlier seasons where I knew what happened!

Hunting through my DVD collection, I’ve settled on watching the classic BBC drama Fall Of Eagles (featuring a youngish Patrick Stewart as Lenin).

 

[Dave Vicks]

OT:I wonder if DVDS will go the way of the CD.
