Exiled_Rover Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 It's probably been mentioned, but I'm not searching through 19 pages to find the relevant comments. Battlestar Galactica, what a great show. Everything is top notch - acting, directing, writing. I'm on the last episode of season 3 now, thanks to TV Links. It's compelling viewing and has me absolutely hooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozz Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 What kind of accent does the voice of Peter Griffin out of Family Guy have? Is it Boston-ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourLaneBlue Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Oz - it's a Rhode Island accent apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I'm in the minority, but I liked the second season better than the first. The guy who plays Sobotka did an excellent job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozz Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share Posted May 7, 2007 I know I keep on going on about it, but Ideal is on BBC3 at 9.30pm tonight. Watch for the cameo appearance of Mark E Smith near the end-absolutely magic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste B Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I watched Heroes as well, it was really good.Two episodes,i think they were repeats.I think Monday night is the first showing. It was a bit confusing at first , but i think i'm gripped now.With that and Primeval, that's two good shows ,i'm enjoying. I just want Dr Who back now........I just love Dr Who. I cant believe that there are only 2 posts on Heroes, which up to now has managed to displace (an admittably poor 24 s6) as the must watch program. Even featured a previous doctor for a few episodes. Hopefully it wont suffer from second season blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flopsy Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I missed the first few epsiodes so im waiting for it to be on BBC 2 in the summer Anyone else watching house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshireblue Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 House is top drawer. It's been on 5, Hallmark and various other random sky channels so I've just about seen them all now. Series one is the best, with so many belly laughs that it is actually getting painful to watch. Hugh Lawrie is absolutely excellent in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovermatt Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I've been watching the latest episodes of The Sopranos. Best. Show. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
American Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 House - Hugh Lawrie playing an American complete with the accent. Damn immigrants taking all of our high paying jobs away from US citizens.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youandwhosearmy Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I've been watching the latest episodes of The Sopranos. Best. Show. Ever. Although i like the show, seen them all. I always think its slightly overated. Alot of episodes are pure filler, and if you notice not alot happens quite a few episodes in a row. Coupled with the fact there doesnt seem to ever be a central theme or plot. Shows like Prison Break, Lost and 24 completely blow it out of the water if you ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovermatt Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 The lack of 'action' is sort of the point. The strength is in the writing and the acting. It's intelligent, dramatic televison and is vastly superior to the likes of Prison Break, Lost and 24 (the latter two are particular favourites of mine). The same could be said of The Wire yet both it and The Sopranos are widely regarded as the best television shows around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flopsy Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Anyone else thinking that Dr Who's absolutely rocking at the moment? And I hope this Saxon thing isnt anywhere near as random as the Bad Wolf from the first series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt ever do a thing like that Episode 20 (5 Years later) however is one of the best bits of telly i've watched in ages, but dont really want to give any spoilers if I can help it.

Coming to BBC2 soon for those without Sky. I think the show is brilliant,it showed all the episodes again on Bank Holiday Monday, but like Prison Break, if you miss a few episodes it gets hard to keep pace with the plot.I haven't got Sky at moment,except for the sprts channels, so shows like Heroes, Supernatural, C.S.I, and Shark keep me entertained.I'll have to just do witthout Lost and 24 for now.I wish Sky one would buy Big Brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adopted scouser Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Bump Thanks to a certain moderating asian taxi driver on here, I'm hooked on 'Heroes'. Up to episode 15 now, have I passed the sci fi channel yet ? Every episode seems to have an "aww f*** off" moment in it (accompanied by a big smile) I mean, Hiro's Dad ! Brilliant television.
