That Tig is one weird screwed up dude. I see Clays grubby fingers all over those home invasions too.<br />

[spoiler]Turns out you were right, not overly surprisingly, I still wonder if he is working with someone else as well.[/spoiler]<br />

Revolution has aired ep 1 & 2, and yes you have to ask what happened to the electricity and power (I mean why did anything powered, be it powered by electricity or not suddenly stop working)<br />
<br />
Looks watchable, certainly not a must watch...got a wee concerned to see JJ Abrahms is involved, I still havent forgiven him for Lost! -

I watched the first half of the opening episode(s) and thought, what a crock of shit. They just set up a scenario without any rhyme or reason or attempt at explanation and then kicked off a story in this 'new world'. I stopped watching but kept the recording going just in case.<br />
<br />
Last night I thought I'd give it a bit more effort and watched the rest, followed by last night's episode. It looks like they do actually have some kind of 'mystery' behind the lack of power and even a backstory being explained at a reasonable rate. Still way and wondering how much time I'll give it to grab me but my feeling is that it's either going to get better or worse very quickly. -
Its Abrahms Lost influence!!<br />
<br />
Yeah I usually take 5 or 6 episodes before I decide if I dont like something (in the case of Lost it was 5 or 6 years) -

I lasted 1 and a half seasons of Lost before it lost me.<br />

I have to admit to being a fool in watching 10 episodes of Alcatraz in hope each time that they were going to advance the actual story more than just a snippet each time. Once burned.... -

Geez, gotta love the cameos that SoA manages to conjure up. First King, then Goggins[b], now McHale[/b]. What others have there been?<br />

I had no idea who you were talking baout until the Missus pointed him out!!!<br />
<br />

never watched Community (googled Jeff Winger)<br />
<br />
Was an odd character though. -

No love for Boardwalk Empire S03? Nucky gets nasty and a new bad ass is in town.<br />
<br />
[b]Downton Abbey S03 another good watch [/b]and if you like DA then Parades End would be worth a look.<br />
[/quote]<br />
<br />
Yeah just just started on that this week, gotta love some of the dialogue and indignation at some of the situations, hilarious!<br />
<br />
Finished S3 of BSG, great series, just the right amount of chessiness, and had a looksie at ep 1 of Strike Back too, looks like my cup of tea. -
I think me and Mrs Mariner are the only 2 people in Australia watching "Strike Back", it's already been bumped to the 11.30pm slot. Fuckers.<br />
<br />
3 episodes in and Season 2 of "Homeland" is ticking along nicely. I was wondering how they were going to drag out a second season, but its pretty good.<br />
<br />
Still liking "Vegas" as well. It's a pretty simple premis, but it's entertaining TV. -
ANyone seen Elementary, another take on Sherlock Holmes with Johnny Miller & Lucy Liu
-
Certainly a lot of death in SOA this season although am wondering if the one we think from the end of the last ep will happen due to what he knows. <br />
<br />
Walking Dead started on tv here last night at the prime time of 2230! WTF! It is only what 4 weeks behind yet they slot it in that time slot? I hadn't intended watching it on tv with ads....any who, picked up where it left off, pretty good. -

Shit no, having Clay skulking around plotting Jax's downfall is what is driving the story at the moment. You can now see why the obvious kill off didn't happen. -
I wasnt talking about Clay...<br />
<br />
[spoiler]the very end of the last ep with Jax following Juice after confirming he was a the 'snitch' if he allows him to live given what he knows and can confirm...[/spoiler] -
Ok, my bad assumption, I wont read your spoiler yet as I was busy last night and am yet to watch the latest ep.<br />
<br />
I have the first of Elementary to watch but haven't as yet. I liked the UK recent series so much I'm hoping that the US one in the same vein doesn't ruin things for me. Will approach with trepidation.<br />
<br />
A Series I have been slowing chipping away at is Alphas Series 2. Series 1 showed enough promise to see where they are going with things and I nust say the quality has improved. Any series like this will have a lot of holes and credibility issues but if you suspend them and go along for the ride it's not a bad watch. Gary, the austistic guy, is really quite good and the writers serve him well. There are some subtle funny moments that come from him. Having a scene where the two hot chicks in the cast have a pash was a nice touch as well.<br />
<br />
Person of Interest S2 is now 5 episodes in so must do a catch up on that to see if it is still chugging along OK. -
My brother has been saying good things about a new series called Arrow he reckons I'll enjoy....<br />
<br />
I have so much on my list to watch at the moment (havent started Elementary yet)
