The Sopranos...Oh how I miss it.
Kath and Kim for a laugh in an Aussie stylee and Dinnerladies/Phoenix Nights for a laugh in a Northern stylee.
Terry & June
Early Doors.
(If 2 DVDs count, that is. It came in a box!)
i watched the whole of ally and loved it. Every episode, although jon bon jovi was pretty crap.
Now watching shameless, on series six.
when I've finished that I'm starting Glee.:)
I bought Star Wars - The complete saga yesterday. All 6 films on blu-ray. Now I just need a couple of days to write off and watch them....
That run has been a regular feature in my life from time to time. Although they are never usually in the right order.Quote:

You're in for a treat. It's near flawless right through the first four seasons.
Escellent stuff. The first hour of the 1st disc hooked me instantly !

Also Game of Thrones season one. Having missed it first time round and having enjoyed season two, even though it took me a while to work out what the heck was going on, its really great to at long last fully understand the plot :)
I have enjoyed the first two series of Game of Thrones. My son and daughter have read all the books in the Song of Ice and Fire series but I have waited till the end of each series then read the appropriate book just to fill in any blanks in the stories as they can be a little confusing working out where everyone is and what the history was. It was a bit of a shock with the events at the end of series 1 and the events beyond The Wall at the end of Series 2 made a good ending too :cool:Quote:

Up to series 7 now. Probably my favourite ever television show.Quote:

Rumpole of the Bailey. Complete, all seasons from those tax dodgers at amazon for 15 quid inc postage. I will raise a glass of Chateau Thames Embankment to that.
the Fly episode did it for me, and the undergound lab in general.Quote:

You missed out the drooling labrador, the third kid, the GRANDkid!,the home office, the overgrown garden, the piles of dirty running kit, the bikes, the track day car,the modelling room, the long list of DIY 'must do' tasks and all the other things that, somehow, irritatingly mean that I cannot find the 25th hour to settle down to a nice long sesh with the box set of Fawlty Towers, Father Ted and Monty Python that beckon with the tearful sadness of ignored presents from Christmas Past!
Same with me on Saturday Wheeze. As well as being discounted they were buy one and the second one was half-price of whatever it was already discounted at.Quote:

Just noticed your signature Alf. GoT?? ;)
Yes well spotted Stolly :D I am not saying I am a big fan but I bought Mrs Alf a T shirt with 'Khaleesi' on it. Well she is the wife of the khal at Alf towers :rolleyes::DQuote:

Today finished watching Game of Thrones (seasons 1&2) and for a cod medieval/sword & sorcery tits and ass-fest, I found the first season too downbeat for words. After slogging through that, it perked up no end in the second. It found a sense of humour and fairly rattled along. Really looking forward to the next season, as long as they don't kill 'the Imp' that is, best actor and character in it by a street imho.
currently working my way through Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 10 (the New York series)
my fave episode used to be "The Doll" from season 2
but has been usurped by the "Palestinian Chicken" episode, which is a work of genius :D
I cringed at that programme on TV there was a meeting with some school kids and he just came across as this superior-upperclass english gentleman.Quote:
