Well I thought orphan Black so-so. Something I have enjoyed is the Young Montalbano, which airs on BBC4 at nine tonight. Subtitles don't put me off, I love the scenery and sound of their language. I think I might learn italian

First season of Orphan Black was awesome. Can't wait for season 2...
Anyone watching "Under The Dome"? Still can't make up my mind about it.

'By Any Means' tonight looks kind of interesting. A kind of 'Mission Impossible'/'Hustle' style of thing. Know next to nothing about it other than the trailer though..

First couple of episodes were fun. I just hope they don't spin it out too long. I did not know there was a second season already.

Only for the TV guide I wouldn't have known it even existed until today.

As it turns out, I'd rate it 'OK'. The 'heist' itself was rather predictable but it was generally well acted by a pretty high grade cast. Given Eva Green's prominent role in the trailer for next week's it seems they may be going for 'big name guest star' each week to try to cover over some of the shortcomings. Overall nothing particularly spectacular, but hell it's either that or, well not much, frankly... Edit : It might not be Eva Green. Sounds like her though.

I saw a documentary on parbuckling the Costa Concordia last night. It was quite good to say they've only had a week to put it together.

Yes - have read the book and also Steven Kings notes on the series and why it is different from the book Overall enjoying it oncv I got over the "But its not the same as the book" rant

Breaking Bad - it's good, it just moves too slowly for me personally.
