"The West Wing" seems dated?

I've got some "Blake's 7" here ...

currently watching Southcliffe, new on channel 4. So far, looking very good.

I remember Blake's 7.....I think I was 7 when it was cancelled. I did hear rumours of a new version a while ago, but never heard any more????

Lixarto

They did say they were making a new version - I may even be able to find out. Leave it with me.

Blake's 7 was awesome, always had the hots for Servalan as a youngster

Glenys Barber was gorgeous. But I confess to knocking a few out over Servalan.

I see your Blake's 7 and raise you one Flash Gordon - Space Soldiers.

 

I suspect I may have overbid - I should probably have started off with Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons to draw you in...

Still working my way through Breaking Bad in anticipation of the upcoming finale.

Waiting for Homeland to start again and just started watching Ray Donovan, which is awesome thus far.

We just finished watching The Returned. I liked it, even though I did wonder how they were going to squeeze all the unresolved stuff into the last episode. When it ended, we looked at each other and went "huh??". Then the announcer said series 2 is planned for next year.

We're also up to series 4 in The Sopranos box set. It's still my favourite tv series ever.

Game of Thrones box set next.

Don't Trust The B----- in Apartment 23, which is one of the funniest things ever to be on TV.

Great recommendation, cheers! Hadn't heard of it, just watched the first couple episodes last night. Fantastic! Only Parks & Rec makes me laugh that much. (honourable mention to New Girl and The Mindy Project too)

PSA: Breaking Bad is back this month! August 12th, Netflix.

I've only just started watching Breaking Bad. I'm a loooong way behind!

Right, "Blake's 7" - a 13 part series is being made in conjunction with the Sci Fi channel. That's all I've got that's concrete, there's a lot of speculation which is likely all nonsense anyway.

Just rewatched The IT Crowd on 4OD (now there's a decent app on the ps3), still funny.

That is going to be amazing.

Or dreadful.

I don't really mind either way.
