What was the last TV show you watched?

[AmateisGal]

There's a series on Netflix Streaming of nature documentaries where they hide mobile cameras in different animal populations - polar bears, lions, elephants (and one or two others that I haven't seen yet). The seres is called something like "The Spy in the Heard." (If you can't find it, let me know and I'll hunt out the exact name). It is well done, informative and the cameras themselves - well camouflage as rocks, bushes, etc. - are part of the fun. But to your bigger point - yes, nature is incredible and we continue to learn so much about it.

Oh, cool! Thanks for the tip! We'll search for them.

TCM showed a bunch of James Dean television apperances last night. Dean was a regular on the T.V. anthology shows of the early 50's. More often than not he played a hood, delinquent, thief... lost soul. You could see him honing his craft... learning his trade. Good stuff!

Interesting, that in one of the shorts, they had two soon to be million dollar actors together. Dean and Reagan!

Outstanding. What a comeback..!!

I thought he was finished after the first round. He almost was a few times, but showed more resiliency than I thought he would. Huge win for him. Huge loss for Mousasi.

Some NFL today. Loved the Niner game. Hated the Cowboys game.

 

[Doctor Strange]

Binge-watching season 1 of The Knick, a Cinemax series with Clive Owen about a NYC hospital in 1900, produced/directed by Steve Soderbergh. (I don't have Cinemax, but HBO On Demand has the first season of The Knick available as special freebie for a couple of weeks to advertise the upcoming second season.)

The show's very well done, but I'm finding it difficult to have much empathy for any of the characters. Even the always excellent Owen, playing the brilliantly inventive chief surgeon who only survives the rigors of the job (and the depression of the endless stream of patients dying on the table as new techniques and equipment fail) by spending each night in a Chinatown opium den, then injecting himself with cocaine the next morning and right before performing important operations! Talk about a flawed protagonist...

Boy, surgery back then was terrifying!

Fear of the Walking Dead - always getting worse.
The Strain - always getting better.
Life of Pieces pilot - I hope they can avoid a too speedy pace and canned humor. I like the cast (except for Brolin). There's a lot of talent collected, so it has potential if they avoid overwriting it and turning it into every other formula comedy on TV.
You're the Worst - I like this show, and I'm disappointed they flung it at the FXX network buried away from the main FX channel.

Doctor Who - The Witch's Familiar; Was a good part tow to the season starter. It'll make you think twice about going near a sewer, ancient or modern.

Doctor Who - Genesis of the Daleks. Classic Tom Baker Doctor.

Had been catching up on So You Think You Can Dance. Dang, those dancers are impressive.

Cheers!

[AmateisGal]

Hitler's Final Days on the National Geographic channel. I've watched a LOT of documentaries on Nazi Germany, etc., but I was blown away by how much of this footage I had *not* seen. I'd estimate I had never seen 85% of it.

It was a very well done documentary, too.

 

[Touchofevil]

Monday Night Football and Fear the Walking Dead. I am liking how FtWD is going.

I got a notice from Network On Air that, for this week only, they are having a 60% off sale on their ITV programmes - and there are some real bargains to be had for a TV fan of 40 yrs up. Sure, there's a lot of dross and it amazes me how some of the stuff of the past has even managed to be committed to DVD, but there are also some mighty British TV classics - such as The Prisoner, The Champions, The Persuaders, Department S, Man In A Suitcase, Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), The Saint, Danger Man, Sapphire and Steel, The Sweeney, The Professionals, Space 1999, plus Piece Of Cake and many other wartime series, plus a lot more and all at super prices.

I've just got my order in.

*Please note that these are all Region 2 DVDs/Region B Blu-Ray discs, so anyone outside the UK will need a multi-region player to play them*
