It's all academic for me anyway since I gave up a few episodes into season 2 after really enjoying the first.

Yeah, I saw the first couple of seasons and then stopped watching.
Having never really got back in to it I can't say that I'm particularly excited by a new season, but I've friends on Fb who are in fits of squealing already about it.

The Agenda on ITV - I like it but I can only watch it if the politician isn't a complete arse, and this week it's Harriet bloody Harman.

Amazon's own TV offerings are crap from what I've seen :(

Bosch - Holy cliche, Batman! His ex hates him, he's being falsely accused... Everything about this show is wrong - the script, the acting, the attempts at comedy... Shocking considering it's competition.

Alpha House - There's no need to laugh at Republicans when they're a joke IRL and you haven't got a LOL joke to your name. This isn't even lazy Sunday night, lightweight comedy, it's just lame full stop.

New-look iPlayer unveiled by BBC

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-26529371

I'm gonna much about with it later on the PS3 - it certainly hasn't carried across my favourites yet, if it ever will.

Quote:
The service will also host exclusive comedy content from Frankie Boyle, Bob Mortimer, Meera Syal, Morgana Robinson, Micky Flanagan, Matt Berry and Stewart Lee.

Film-maker Adam Curtis is producing three projects that will be available from July.

"[iPlayer] frees one from the constraints of scheduling and format on the traditional TV channels - and I think that may allow stories to become far more emotionally involving and complicated," he said.


That I like the sound of.

Terry Crews up for Luke Cage

:)

Can't really see Elba taking the role; he's a big guy but Cage is enormous.

Quote:
Long-running US sitcom The Big Bang Theory has been extended for a further three series, broadcaster CBS has said.

The show, which centres on a group of high-functioning science "geeks", is now due to air until at least 2017.

The most recent series, which is screened on Channel 4 and E4 in the UK, was seen by almost 20 million viewers in the US.

What will they do when the actors become obviously far too old to be doing the jobs they have them doing in the show?

The show has been going downhill recently IMO. I think it has become less "geek chic".

You can't pretend to be living like students and doing what is the US equivalent of postgraduate studies when you're 30.

They're not living like students. They do laundry, have a fairly clean living space, one's married, and they own property. They're all in possession of their PhDs, with the exception of Howard, and whilst it's never exactly made clear just what their jobs actually involve (beyond "research", but again, Howard clearly is involved in building for the space programme at some level).
Or do you just mean it's high time they went to work in a suit?
