General Television Thread

[Barry in Ireland]

I've felt like this thread has been needed for a while for TV shows that we're watching but don't necessarily want to start a new thread for.

Anyway, I'm watching the second season of Sherlock along with the Brits and just watched the second episode. Anyone else? Did anyone else find that second episode really...weird? I mean like too close to science fiction for a Sherlock story?

I managed to finally watch the second episode of Sherlock the other night. I thought it was pretty great, dude that played Henry was brilliant and I will watch anything with production values like that show has. Original Hound of the Baskervilles story was always a weird one, and I thought they did a decent job of making it a little more coherent.

Should I just send these notes to Sherlock, the BBC, London, England? I think they'd be useful.

New season of Justified tonight! Although I doubt they can top Margo Martindale as season villain.

Justified is a great program!

I love Sherlock and the two Moffat episodes (the opening episodes of both seasons) are some of my favorite tv things ever.
I've found the series 2 finale a alternately good and just okay.

I watched the first episode of Sherlock last night, it was so fun, I can't wait to watch the other two, and then, watch them again. TV is rarely that fun. 10 of 10!

Agreed. While I found the situation that Sherlock found himself in compelling, the episode distinctly lacked some genuine detection going on. It kind of turned into an action movie rather than a detective show.

Justified is probably my favorite non-comedy show on TV. Pretty psyched for tonight.

I've really enjoyed Sherlock so far (haven't seen the Reichenbach episode yet), especially how these stories have been updated while keeping some of the central plot points. Looking forward to "The Red-Headed League"!

I've been loving the clips from Nathan For You:

Nathan For You: Interview With A Seven Year Old

I don't think there's any way to watch it in Canada yet. Even though he's Canadian!
