TV Shows...What are you following?

Season 3 of The Americans hasn't even started here yet, I didn't realise it was already over.

Not that I'm advocating it, but if you are creative, you can find all of season 3 online. I will say that while it was still head and shoulders above most of the shows on TV, the third season was perhaps the weakest one. The girl that plays the daughter is getting older, and they're having some trouble figuring out what to do with her. They also got backed into a corner with Nina being shipped off to prison. I think she was going to another TV show, but then they decided to keep her around. Plus, she doesn't get naked and show off that great little ass of hers.

I thought Humans was very good. It's been renewed for another season. I really like the BBC stuff, 3 Musketeers, Ripper Street, good stuff.

I usually like the BBC America programming, but it's been weak as of late, at least to me. I never got into Ripper Street or 3 Musketeers. But, there's a new series of Luther coming this fall. If you didn't see it before, you can find the first three series of it online. There's also a new mini-series called London Spy that has Ben Wishaw in it. He's been pretty good in everything I've seen of his on the beeb. I have high hopes for this one.

Watched a few episodes of Luther but couldn't get into it. Love the theme song tho, London Spy sounds intriguing.

-I don't know why but Season 3 of The Americans, which begins its run in the UK this week, has been relegated to a graveyard channel called ITV Encore which presumably can only be accessed if you have a flying saucer wedged into the roof. I don't know why unless there is a feeling Season 3 shows terminal decline. Not all of these drama series make it past 1 and 2, Orphan Black is one example of something that could go on forever, to nobody's advantage, but given that garbage like House of Cards is into series 3 or 4 or who cares which, one wonders who makes these decisions.

I have such a soft spot for Orphan Black.... It's strange, same girl, but I have a favorite, and one I think is sexier than the rest. And it's the same girl. She's pretty talented as an actress. But I think that show is starting to run out of story. It could go on forever, would kind of like to see it go out on a high note.

From what I have been reading FTWD is doing very well. I think the 6 episodes was to test the waters and see fan response. I think it will be back.

[Stavros]

No idea what FTWD is. I bought seasons 1 and 2 of The Following yesterday and am half-way through season 1. I can't decide if I like it or not. At times it is plain daft -I doubt a mass murderer would be allowed direct access to visitors in prison-, at other times it rings true of the internal dynamics that can take hold of people in a cult. The hand-held camera shots are irritating. I don't think it was shown on UK tv unless it was on one of those satellite channels.

Fear The Walking Dead. FTWD

[svin_renigoth]

I'm excited for the Mr. Robot season finale tomorrow (postponed from last week). I love this show. It's an obvious homage to Fight Club, minus the fighting, and there's a bit of American Psycho sprinkled in, as well.
I'm also following FearTWD and I'm looking forward to Fargo season 2.

Season 1 of Fargo just appeared on Hulu. I'm like 6 episodes in and I'm really enjoying it. I like how they tie it in with the movie by showing the fate of the money that Steve Buscemi buried in the snow. I'm looking forward to new seasons of Arrow, The Flash, Backstrom, The Blacklist, The Last Man on Earth...and probably a few more that I can't think of at the moment.
