I watched Elementary from the beginning and initially expected it to fall flat (I find most American network dramas to be too flat and "networky"), but I ended up really liking it (including the end,...
I finished watching Elementary last night with the missus. Back when it was announced, I was extremely skeptical, as it initially seemed to be an easy cash in on the success of Sherlock. However,...
Does Netflix offer a non-dubbed version?[/QUOTE]
It does. That was the version me and the missus watched. And it definitely lives up to the hype.
Absolutely love this show. So glad season 3 is almost here.
Oh, wow! So cool you've discovered Blake's 7 after all these years. I haven't watched it in decades - glad to hear it still holds up. It was *the* show to watch back in the day. I might try a...
Recently, after watching it on and off for the past decade, I finally reached the end of Blake's 7. The final episode is exactly as brutal as I'd heard. Quite a devastating finale, but also, a...
I just finished watching the first series of Fleabag. Overall, I really liked it. The main protagonist was deeply flawed, (which is to be expected in a British sitcom,) but still likable. Definitely...
Recently, I watched the documentary series The Ripper on Netfliix. This was a rather horrific watch, but not just for the reasons you might think. It covers the murders, investigation, and eventual...
It's fantastic, isn't it? I really wished it had somewhere to properly stream outside of the UK, especially with the recent remake so easily available by comparison.
That reminds me: I need to watch One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I hadn't realized until recently that Ratched was supposed to be a prequel.
Yeah, I’m really confused, too. With the new setting and adjusting for inflation, surely Dime Dreadful would make more sense? 😉
Ah, I need to watch Prime Suspect. Absolutely loved Cracker, and I've heard PS is equally good.
Is this worth a watch?[/QUOTE]
I liked it a lot. Good characters who show their best and worst sides. It's a tad melodramatic at times, but I was captivated by it throughout.[/QUOTE]
Ooh,...
Erm...was it ever "cool"? :P
I'm glad to see that actress is still in comedies that are at least a little bit different. I always remember her as Nancy in Peep Show.

Oh yes, I heard they remade it. I still need to watch the original series.[/QUOTE]
I didn't know this was a remake. I don't know why I keep watching it. It just gets more ridiculous the further...

I need to get back to watching Veep. What little I saw of the first season was okay, it just wasn't The Thick of It. Matt, I swear to you, The Thick of It is fucking comedy gold. Made me a fan of...
With House of Cards, try the original miniseries. The plot progresses much faster, and Ian Richardson is fucking brilliant. I've enjoyed the remake, but I think it does help knowing where it's going...
