What are you watching on the television?

I watched that new Scottish comedy The sunny last night and it's top stuff, also there's even more Scottish comedy shows on the way next week with How did I get up there & Scot Squad. (on the 26th & 27th)

The new series of Futurama starts on Sky 1 at 7pm tonight! Just checked the listings and there it was: New: Futurama. Final Futurama, too.

Double post, but just to pass on the following: we're watching The Fall and The Missing, both of which are really creepy police thrillers. Despite the shudder factor, they both come recommended (though you should really watch them from the beginning).

We're also into MasterChef: The Professionals. I really miss Michel Roux Jr. - Marcus Wareing can be a bit of a jerk sometimes.

I just finished watching Terror in Resonance (or Zankyou no Terror if you prefer).

Major Ending spoilers:

Probably shouldn't be bothering posting something so insignificant, but I just needed to say something after that ending. Obviously if you ever plan or even so much as think you might watch the series then you shouldn't open that spoiler tag.

The Missing is a strange animal - how can a really slow show that primarily consists of James Nesbitt frowning at things be so compelling?

Will say that it really didn't need to be 8 episodes long. Got a horrible feeling I've called who did it already...

He frowns so well, though! If the finale drops the ball, I will be rather angry.

The Newsroom, which is still excellent as ever but I can't believe there's only one more episode to go & it will be done forever.

The fourth season of one of televisions best current shows, Person of Interest. Which has finally started to air here. After last season's last third it's good to have it go back to a quieter pace and tone, it gives what went down last season some nice contrast as it didn't really let up the pace or intensity after the first few episodes last time. It's also fun to see the gang trying to fit in to real life, Reese in particular getting grilled for his usual knee capping antics now he's a proper cop.

The Missing ended in a terribly creepy way. Thanks, team! The Fall finale is tomorrow... can't wait to be unsettled further, just in time for Christmas! /

Just watched all 8 episodes of Sonic Boom which is rather good.

I thought I posted here a few days ago but clearly not, as I was going to update that I've watched season 1-3 of Game of Thrones.

Which was fantastic, now I've got to wait till the 16th of Feb when it's released on Blu Ray.

I am going to ask for the books for my birthday.

Glad you enjoyed the show! It's a good time to get into the books too, as the show and the books have really begun to diverge from one another over the past series.

I've also seen seasons 1 - 3 due to that 12 days 1 throne catch up that Sky done over Christmas & have also enjoyed it massively, I still have season 4 sitting on my sky box as well.

See a woman at work her husband watches it and has read the books and she's says that he says that there is much difference so far. After asking him after I said I might get the books.

Broadchurch, which has made an interesting start. Also, Celebrity Big Brother, which seems much the same as ever.

Do you mean isn't much difference? Well, it is somewhat faithful, but the show omitted a few major major plot points over the last series and judging by the information about the next series that I've heard so far, there's only going to be more differences down the road.

Yeah meant isn't, thanks Jay though a

I'm hoping to watch Channel 4's Cucumber some time soon. I hardly ever watch the TV, and in this instance I'm hoping this rare television depiction of gay society isn't toe-curlingly cringeworthy/a freak show.

Shows that I'm watching at the moment: Agents of SHIELD, Arrow, The Flash, Castle, Star Wars Rebels, Supernatural and Agent Carter.

Star Wars Rebels

Is that any good? I watched a couple of the promo videos they had up on YouTube ages ago, and I was a bit unsure of the tone.

So tonight is arguably one of the biggest sporting events of the year The Super Bowl.

Who's watching

One of the biggest sporting events already happened today.

Yeah good to see Djokovic win

Like I give a fuck about Tennis.

For some reason, I've found myself giving a bit more of a fuck about tennis in recent times. Not really sure why. Possibly because BBC Sport had a live feed that, due to breaks in play, gives enough of the details (which would be impossible for, say, football).

Not that it was worth following. Murray was giving a decent account of himself, and then seemed to have a complete brain fart.
