Blackadder is one of my all time favorites, especially the 4th ww1 period season. Once you're done with the series (and assuming you'll like it ) make sure to see "Blackadder Back & Forth", a 1999 follow up tv movie.

Sat down with a cup of tea and my Tele last night, lights dimmed, and started watching the second half of season 7 in Mad Men. **** I missed this show. So good.

Love Mad Men. Since I was born in 1960 a lot of it really resonates with me as far as the home life/family stuff goes.

I just finished watching the first season a few minutes ago, by the way, and I'd definitely say it keeps up the quality all the way through. |

I can definitely see the Oldboy / The Raid comparisons, the fight scenes in Daredevil were so entertaining, especially the longer takes.

I don't think anybody hasn't loved this show on this site. I'm gonna have to go finish my Frank Miller Daredevil issues pretty soon.

Almost embarrassed to say it but I'm a Downton Abbey fan.
My sister and I have been closer since our parents died. She visted us and clearly wanted to discuss Downton Abbey. I said that I don't like soaps and wouldn't be seen dead watching something like that. She bought us the Seasons 1 -4 Box Set for Christmas. As Season 5 was due to start (in September)we decided to start watching it at the end of July. We watched the entire 4 seasons before September (36 episodes). We watched the first season in two days (9 episodes - never done that before) IT'S FANTASTIC!!!!!! The writing, the sceenplay, the characterization, Absolutely awesome Acting and the sheer spectacle. I have to say that it's spoilt all other drama for me, it's amateurish by comparison. For those who disagree I give you 140 million viewers worldwide per week. Go on the IMDB website and look at the awards its won (view page by page) |

In light of Letterman's final show, here's something interesting that ties in with the music of Bob Dylan and the punk world. It's actually a really good read.
