Surprised by how good Orange Is The New Black is. It's a Netflix series about a middle class woman who goes to prison. Very entertaining with an excellent performance from Captain Janeway.

You were surprisingly right about this - both in terms of this being surprisingly good, and me being surprised that Janeway was the big russian Babushka lady. That snuck up on me.

American Horror Story: Coven - on the TV. Is it good, is it not good. Stayed tuned and I shall reveal all!

Oh and the new season The Office US is great.

I swear I could have edited American Horror Story: Coven better than the people who do it and make it a thousand times better. Too many cuts. Did they learn nothing from last season?

HOWEVER, it has Officially The Worst Theme Tune EVER.

Also, too many boobies.

On both accounts, great song, great tits.

Gratuitous boobies.

The theme song is awful, awful, waily shite.

Boobies are never gratuitous.

Was getting pretty bored after a couple of episodes and then fucked it off completely when the heartwarming, kooky nutter woman made an appearance, complete with her quirky, plinky plonky music. Just fucking awful.

Finished two series of Suits and have just watched the first episode of S3.

I am still totally in love with Donna.

I do think they're trying a little too hard to make her super-secretary, though. And she can't do it as well as her namesake in the West Wing.

Just finished the 4th season of Arrested Development, which was hilarious. For me it was the best, so i don't quite understand all the so-so reactions to it online. Also, that's quite an intincrate plot for a sitcom, isn't it?

The fakeblock storyline was the funniest thing

Masters of Sex is very good if you like Mad Men

8 Episodes to date, given the title there is nudity but not as bad as shows like Game of Thrones or True Blood.

New show with Karl (Dredd / Eomer / Bones / Ceasar) Urban called "Almost Human"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Almost_Hum ... _series%29

Quote:

The series is set thirty-five years in the future when humans in the Los Angeles Police Department are paired up with lifelike androids; a detective who has a dislike for robot partners is paired up with an android capable of emotion.

2 episodes shown so far and seems interesting

I started joining my wife watching New Girl, and it's surprisingly funny. It's much better than How I Met Your Mother, at least.

Aye, New Girl's pretty good.

I have never flounced. Flouncing involves announcing it before you leave.

That would probably have been funnier if I'd actually done it and hadn't just immediately forgotten instead.
