    thanks guys.. I'm a dizzy Rascal! Ginger.. it's awful isn't it? it's like being really drunk but without the fun, not that I really remember, it's been a long time since I had a drink! . I'm rewatching Orange this eve to recap for season 4 next week.. it's is poignant and often sad, but I like that the characters are all so human.colourful and vulnerable... I like seeing their back stories, to understand where they're at.. most of the girls had dysfunctional families.. I can relate with that.. I'm lost for things to watch, I've done Better Call Saul and Sons of Anarchy.. I love being able to binge watch lots of episodes.. My faves are def american crime dramas .
    You might like IZombie :) Theres two seasons to watch through on netflix, its about a doctor who becomea a zombie and uses her powers to help solve crimes :)

    me too WW :) Lambyr.. BB was the best thing I've ever watched, series wise!! Genius! from the script to the cinematography!

    Breaking Bad is definitely one of my favourites, even though by the end of it the only characters I didn't dislike were Hank and poor Jesse... he's a complete bumface at times but I couldn't help but feel sorry for him after everything that the poor silly fool went through.

    It's hard for me to rate shows because the ones I enjoy generally get pride of place depending on what I've seen most recently.

    I love The Sopranos so that'd be one of my all-time faves. Was a huge fan of the reimagining of Battlestar Galactica from the 2000's though that sorta lost its way by the middle of S4 and the last episode was kinda meh.

    I like Game of Thrones, but the more it's diverged from GRRM's source material the more haphazard it's becoming. I actually think it may have peaked in S4.

    Sons of Anarchy should probably have ended two seasons earlier. The last season was just silly to me!

    I like Orange is the New Black, and I also like Netflix's version of House of Cards.

    Not gonna say it's the best thing ever, cos it isn't, but there's a Canadian cop show that's borderline comedy-drama called Rookie Blue which is a good thing to watch when you don't really want to have to think about stuff! There's some serious things in there from time to time but it's much less serious than most... even Blue Bloods is more gritty in my mind!

    Gingernutty, you make me feel tired just reading what you're up to. I rarely go out during the week any more.

    I am just back from a ballet trip to Brum (my culture for the year). Interesting journey home as half the roads appear to have turned into rivers.

    I still haven't watched BB! I think I may be the last person alive to get to it..... one day.....

    You can't beat a good binge watch. It's looking like a wet dreary weekend here so finding a new series to get stuck into may be in order.

    I've never binge watched anything - I tend more towards binge reading.

    Having said that, Gitdog does appear to have some sort of ethical objection to people sitting there doing nothing. Working from home, he's fine all day. Sit in a comfy chair to read or watch TV and after an hour he's in full on harrassment mode.

    P cat's a PITA when I work from home. I was trying to type with him draped over one arm the other day... and he's big! He's also very fond of just plonking himself down on the laptop.

    Binge reading is also a very fine use of the day :D

    I think the last time I binge watched anything, it would have been Lost or Prison Break? I don't do it much at all anymore, as I think that there's much better things I could be doing with my time, and it especially bugs me when D does it as he can sit there for hours sometimes. I guess I'm just not a one for sitting still for long!

    I've never watched BB either tea, and I can't say I'm interested in it either.

    Post about referendum.

    I don't think I can penguin a picture, so I will leave a big space before it. But this actually helped to cheer me up a bit because it felt as if others were supporting my (fairly non-contentious I think) view...... I hope it helps others as well
