After looking through this topic, I can find threads about films and books but nothing about TV. Hence I thought it would be cool to share with each other what we are currently watching, the good, bad and ugly TV shows, series we are addicted to and just anything related to TV!

Looking forward to hearing what you are all watching :heart:

    I'll be honest once I get hooked on a series I can't stop watching it- friends, desperate housewives and pretty little liars to name a few :heart:

    Haven't watched much TV recently but now that I have a month off uni, I'm looking for a new series!

    Came across Homeland on Netflix, wasnt sure if I'd like it but gave it a shot. I've only watched a few episodes but this could be a potential winner for me :heart:

    Of course :) Netflix is TV in my book :p

    Love hollyoaks , but I'm so behind! I haven't watched it in ages, I need to get back into it!!

    Sounds awesome, what's elementary about???
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,875,648 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Since netflix counts, I'm rewatching Orange is the new black and also Orphan Black!
    Elementary is very similar to sherlock holmes, I personally find it to be better

    I love Homeland too! Missed the latest season as I had completely forgotten what happened before so I'm going to watch that after I've finished my current love: The Bridge.

    It's a Danish-Swedish produced series and the third one just aired on BBC4. The first two are available on Netflix. It's a crime drama where police forces have to work together because parts happen in both Malmo and Copenhagen. The lead Swedish cop is thought to have an autistic spectrum disorder (but this is never explicitly said) and the way she acts is absolutely fantastic. I know not all of you will be into subtitled dramas, but it really is fantastic :heart:

    Doctor who but last of this series on Christmas day so gosh knows when that will start again D: I never miss eastenders or corrie - sometimes I record it and end up with like five to catch up on! I've been watching the royale family a lot lately - pretty much watched all of the seasons when I was poorly and fell in love with it. My all time favourite thing is Miranda and I literally watch it every night - I swear I know all of the words to all of the episodes by now! :d
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,875,648 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Is it just me who finds there isn't much on over Christmas? I've been watching a lot of films and other stuff I've recorded. At least it means I've got space to record other things.

    I tend to watch a lot of films (kids ones, usually) documentaries and game shows, such as The Chase and Countdown.

    I'm the same , I just find new series to watch in Netflix instead.

    I love kids films too........I think I like them more now compared to when I was a kid lol

    I also enjoy watching the chase, it's fun trying to answer the questions, half of which I have no clue........ I just keep hoping for science questions!!!

    I'm slightly worried about the amount of useless information I've picked up from watching quiz shows! Pointless is good too.

    love it when I you get addicted to a new programme but it's crap when you get up to date !!!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,875,648 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I'll refer to my Trakt profile, easier to see than listing. Only thing that isn't really on there are quiz shows, because I vaguely watch them these days since I don't watch TV, I catch the odd one here and there when I bother to use catchup stuff.

    I need to catch up on Fargo, Limitless, The Middle at the mo, at least the ones I'm interested in catching up on.

    I'm currently addicted to 'Community' on Netflix - the episodes are pretty short so it's very easy to say to yourself 'just one more'!

    It's a comedy set in an American community college and it's very easy watching :)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 687 Incredible Poster
    I love all the Australian soaps like Neighbours and Home and Away :)

    Always forget how much I enjoy "Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway", gone off TV a bit but this really cheered me up at the weekend......was laughing my head off, this young womans parents followed her everywhere and she didn't know, until they showed videos on the show :hyper: Also like seeing how many questions I can get right and looking forward to the Simon Cowell thing on saturday :)
