What TV are you tuned into currently?

[Ebdim9th]

For me it's the season two opener of Chris Carter's series Millennium, "The Beginning and the End", quite possibly one of the finest moments of television, perhaps even among many movies, ever filmed... Frank Black is a profiler who has stumbled across a dark pattern behind all the serial killers he's been tracking, one of apocalyptic proportions. He's being driven inexorably toward his destiny by the Millennium Group, who are profilers like himself (or is that all that they are?), and some the killers themselves, like the one in this episode, played by Doug Hutchison, familiar to viewers of the X-Files as Eugene Victor Tooms.

At this moment I watch TV series Supernatural first season on my DVD. On TV I re-watch Haven.
A new series call Happy Town started on our channels, have seen that too. Usually I don't like to see
TV series except if a very good one start then I try to see it.

[Spideyman]

I remember Millennium, very good show-- keep watching!
I need to catch up on Haven.

Am totally addicted to NCIS and BONES. They are my must watch TV.

[Shasta]

Too much.

But I am currently enjoying Being Human on the SyFy network. And Parenthood!! I LOVE Parenthood. Everyone should watch it.

[Tim D.]

I don't watch tv on tv anymore. I wait for whatever I want to see to come out on dvd/blu ray. Currently I'm catching up on season 7 of Supernatural. I am completely obsessed with Breaking Bad. I anxiously awaiting for the 3rd season of Justified to arrive in the mail. And I am excited, bordering on giddy, waiting for the release next month of season 2 of Game of Thrones.

[bookworm101]

American Horror Story Asylum.

[Shasta]

waiting for the release next month of season 2 of Game of Thrones.

Have you read the books? Because I am not looking forward to this season.

[GNTLGNT]

...CBS Evening News and Jeopardy...which officially makes me an old coot...

[Ebdim9th]

Even shows like the one I mentioned, in the late nineties, are old-school now...

[Tim D.]

[QUOTE=Shasta;561452]Have you read the books?
I've read the first three, though It's been awhile.

[tenngolfer]

I caught up on Haven over the weekend, it keeps picking up. Should be interesting next season. I also just finished my second show of Continuum, good so far.

[Lina]

On TV I am currently re-watching Charmed, I just love this show so much that I am ready to watch it again and again.

[Shasta]

Just started The Following. Did anyone else check it out? I thought it was pretty good.

[Moderator]

We watched it and will probably watch again to see how it goes. At least they're airing all 14 episodes without a break--that gets so annoying when they put those long breaks in between to the point that you almost forget what the show was about.

[exzel]

I’m giving "Continuum" a chance. Interesting premise. The premier was better then the second of the series (only 2 shows aired so far). Hope they don’t take it the way so many other shows go... and fail, by overdeveloping the characters and their relationships, and disregarding what made the show popular in the first place.

(I took notice though... they got a lot of guns up there in Canada. :eek2:)

Missed part on original show date, but it will repeat Friday at 9PM. Woo Hoo.

I could seriously hurt the inventor of the "midseason break."

[Lily Sawyer]

Well, Downton Abbey, for starters. If you want a good funny, try this: http://www.happyplace.com/20538/down...on-3-episode-2 -Just be warned there are spoilers in it if you haven't seen this particular episode (Season Three, Episode 2).

I also just saw Anthony Bourdain's new cooking contest show - The Taste. It's not as good as I'd hoped it would be but I'm giving it the Three Strikes rule.

Am anxiously awaiting the return of both Grimm and The Amazing Race.

Call the Midwife and Nashville are also faves.
I watch half an hour or so of Chuck Todd in the morning or Rachel Maddow in the evening on random days, but I always try to watch Washington Week in Review - I dig Gwen Ifill et al.

And the stray episode of Big Bang Theory is also occasionally caught.

[Tim D.]

I just started watching the 3rd season of Justified on blu ray. Excellent show. Anyone else a fan?

[Tim D.]

This is but one of the reasons I can no longer stand to watch tv on tv. Between incessant commercials, ad blurbs for other shows flashing across the screen and weeks long breaks in the middle of a season it's just too distracting. I choose to wait until a dvd release so I can enjoy the show in peace. Seems like I remember when I was a kid a tv season of 22 episodes would run Sept. thru May with a few re-runs scattered during the course of a season. Now some 22 episode shows take a 7 week mid-season break. Wtf?

[carrie's younger brother]

Hawaii 5-0 has been kicking butt lately. Love that show! Eagerly awaiting the return of Spartacus on Starz tonight. I need my gore/sex/cheecake fix bad!

[Shasta]

I am. I know you're probably schocked since we have nothing in common.

[Tim D.]

What's your opinion of Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

[Sepia and Dust]

I could seriously hurt the inventor of the "midseason break."

I don't mind the midseason break so much. What truly and righteously pisses me off are the mini-breaks they take. Supernatural is one notorious offender. One episode, then two weeks off, then two episodes, then three weeks off....

Currently, two episodes after returning from the mid-season hiatus, Once Upon a Time is on a three-week break.

Yup, that's the kind of thing I was talking about.

Huge fan -- three episodes into the current season.

[twellwood70]

The SyFy network for me...it never gets old.

[blunthead]

What TV are you tuned into currently?I'm always tuned into a TV currently. Even if it's battery operated.

[Mary19]

I just caught up on all seasons of Sons of Anarchy, quite a task but I loved it! Watched season premiere of Spartacus, love that show too. I must admit, I love American Idol, Xfactor all those singing shows I can't help myself!

[mustangclaire]

I'm a documentary kind of girl, currently stuck on (here in UK) American Pickers, American Restoration and Man V Food. Also, my fave show of all time Top Gear has just started here again in England. I keep telling myself must watch more drama!!

[Ebdim9th]

What's riding my televisual currents lately are rewatches of Smallville. Watching with a friend and his daughter, but if I wait too long between visits she runs out, gets the season/ next season and finishes/ starts watching it without me....

[fljoe0]

I found an interesting show on netflix streaming. It's called Locked Up Abroad, It;s a National Geographic show and there are 3 seasons of episodes on netflix. This show is about people who have been jailed or kidnapped in various countries around the world. The show consists of an interview with the people who were locked up and video reenactments of the events. Many of the arrested were people who stupidly agreed to be smuggling mules and got caught. Some are people on the show were vacationing and got kidnapped by rebels. One of the episodes I saw was about tourists in Uganda who were kidnapped by Congo rebels in the late 90s. Interesting and scary stuff. I know I don't ever want to go to jail in Caracas! There was an episode where a couple of college aged British guys got thrown in jail in Caracas. The prison they were showing basically had guards to keep people from getting in or out and none inside. The inmates had guns and knives. It was a wild place.

[hossenpepper]

I just started watching "Falling Skies" via Amazon Instant Video. Just watched the first episode. Looks decent.

[sarge73]

I've been following it. I look forward to each episode.

[sarge73]

I enjoy watching this alot.

[MicahWumbo]

Eh.. I'm going to get made fun of for saying this, but I watch shows on MTV like Awkward. I used to watch American Horror Story, but the second season did not get me hooked whatsoever. I plan on watching the new show based on Psycho called Bates Motel, which will be on A&E this month. They're also making a show on CBS based on Stephen King's novel called, "Under the Dome", which will air sometime this Summer. I'm looking forward to those shows.

[fljoe0]

I saw an episode of "Locked Up Abroad" that was about Billy Hayes (Midnight Express). Billy Hayes was on and he told his true version of the story. The movie was reasonably accurate but there were some differences and he added some details. It was very interesting.

[kingricefan]

I watch Two Broke Girls (I am so totally the dark haired girl!!), Two and 1/2 men, Modern Family, The Middle, will watch Doc Martin when I'm flipping channels and come across it, Antique Road Show (love to see the folks faces when they find out gramma's old piece of china is worth trillions!!!), This Old House, Ask This Old House. As you can see, there are no continueing story line shows, cooking shows or (un)'reality' shows on the list. As most of you have said- I hate being involved in a show only to see two episodes and then it's 'break' time for a couple of weeks, then another new show, then break time again. Ridiculous!! The last time I got involved in a series was for 'Twin Peaks' and that was cancelled. Since then it was only 'Lost' that I got sucked into. Nothing after that on the drama side of things. Just don't trust the networks anymore, seems like they just cancel a show after three episodes if they don't get mega ratings.

At the moment I'm watching an old James Bond film, Goldfinger while waiting on the Tennessee Auburn basketball game to come on. Shows I have started watching recently (other than my random documentaries I pick out) are Continuum, Haven, Elementary, Grimm, Being Human, Big Bang Theory, Zero Hour, and in the last few weeks, The Walking Dead (watched the first 2 seasons in a couple of weekends).

Elementary is really enjoyable. Did you know they canceled ZERO HOUR?

[tenngolfer]

No I have not heard that, it was decent, had potential. I really do like Elementary, one of my favorite shows now.

[charmed_one3]

I really like BBC's Sherlock. So far there have been two seasons, and they begin filming the third season soon. (In just a few days actually.) Although, living in America, it is hard to tell when they will show the third season on PBS.

Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays Sherlock, has become one of my favorite actors. It's not too often that I go all "fangirl" over an actor, but I just loooove him. :love2: That deep, rich baritone voice of his makes me go all wonky in the knees.

I also really enjoyed the second season of American Horror Story over the first. Jessica Lange as Sister Jude was wonderful. Great acting on that show. I've read that Kathy Bates is joining the cast for the third season....I really hope that is true!

[Lily Sawyer]

I really do like Elementary, one of my favorite shows now.

Hear, hear. It's nice to see Lucy Liu in a role in which she's not a Snark Queen or trying to karate chop someone at their knees.

[Milica]
