It does nick elements from every other cop show, including the lead female being a bit of a slapper. This seems to be de rigueur these days. _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

Ruth Wilson's in it again. I may have serious concentration issues when it's on.

The Eagles documentary on BBC2 is brilliant, iPlayer it if you missed it.

I'm a few episodes into Person of Interest and really enjoying it - recent news stories about the UK and US spying on it's citizens en masse gives it added kick n'all. And I think I know where Jonathan Nolan got the idea from if you've ever saw The Dark Knight  _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

Just finished watching the first season of Orphan Black. Very good and gets my recommendation. Don't want to say too much about it as the basic premiss is one of the big reveals IMO. However it's present day SF if that helps...

Heard good stuff about this. Might have to stick it on my ever growing 'to watch' list. Mark

Really enjoyed the second season. More season-long story arcs and less "case of the week" episodes, and lots more on Harold Finch's backstory.

I'm watching The Returned (or Les Revenants) and it's really bloody good.

I don't think I'd heard anything about it. Was looking at the TV guide to see what time Once Upon a Time was on and I saw this was on after it (different channel). I expected it to be much more like The 4400. Very pleasantly surprised that it wasn't (not that I didn't like The 4400). Mark

I do enjoy Castle - I like the little Firefly references.
