I've just started it. Got 40 mins in to the first episode but it was late so turned it off. Looks good though.

Still haven't managed to see a single episode of anything all the way through, and that is going back about a year.

Family and a dog mean I never get to watch anything without interruption. And binge watching is totally out of the question.

You'll love it I think. I'm afraid to say anything about it, don't even want to hint at it!

By the way, finished the entire Luther run, very good it was too.

ION, I've nearly finished Sarah Connor Chronicles and it's good, but it's taking some real plot and logic liberties in some episodes.

Early this morning I finished my binge of Grimm season 1.
I've already started season 2 but I'm back in work tonight so I'll not be able to complete the season until some time after Thursday night.

I've really enjoyed Grimm. It just keeps getting better.

There is something very definitely great about it, but I'm just not able to put my finger on what it is.
It may just be the combination of writing and acting coming together but there's a finer balance than that in the overall show.
I really enjoyed the first season and I'm looking forward to getting through the second season.

How I watch will depend on when in a show's run I get into it.

Mostly I watch as they are broadcast (within a week or so), but if I don't start watching a show at the start and then get into it, I'll binge my way through the episodes until I'm caught up. Best/worst (depending on your PoV regarding binging) was Community where I watched all 4 seasons in under 2 weeks...

I'm binge-watching Grimm after two fools on here were talking about it ;)

It's the TV equivalent of popcorn but that's all I want currently.

I'm gonna let From Dusk... build up then watch those. I also need to go back to Vikings as I only watched the pilot - has anyone else been watching it?

I tend to binge-watch my fave shows. However, as "watching" now appears to be more of a "leave it in the background whilst I do something on my phone/laptop", I tend to try and savour episods more often.

Apparently there's books too, and comics. I could see it working even better in those formats with decent writers.

Oh, and Bitsie Tulloch is beyond cute.

She's not as cute as another character that enters later on, which I'll say nothing more about for the sake of spoilers.
