Ha! Gary. Ms Cato No1 has been trying to get me into graphic novels with the main one she's pushing being "Preacher". In this the main man has the ability to use THE WORD which makes anyone obey him and he off handedly told one of the characters to go fuck himself. Sadly said character had to cut off his own cock to enable him to stuff it up his arse.<br><br>This did not end well for said character.

<p>Yeah I think JJ was better than Daredevil, and the proposed crossover also includes Luke Cage as well (the big black guy - who I understand marries JJ in the world of Marvel)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Tennant (aka the Purple Man) had a daughter, again, in the Marvel world, so unsure if that will come through in the series at some point.</p> -
<p>looks pretty good</p>

<p>JJ Abrahms is a busy man! </p>

Yep, there is going to be a Defenders show where some of these guys team up (like a small scale Avengers). Then an Iron Fist Show, Punisher as well. JJ & DD are getting new seasons too. Forgot Luke Cage as well. <br><br>
If they are all as good as the first two we are in for a treat. -

Ah yeah, I remember that now (the crazy Queen) - I think that just because Lagertha doesn't get naked I've obviously blocked all the other nudity in the show.</p></blockquote>

She doesn't at all? Was thinking of watching the series properly, but that has put me off a wee bit.<br><br>
Anyone know if Walking Dead is coming back, or was this series only 8 episodes? -

<p>Not that I know of, but clearly going through by my last few posts it's better to ask someone else. ;)</p> -

Has it been abbreviated due to FTWD or is normal to cut a series in half like that?<br><br>
Nepia: No way you would have missed that. No way

<p>Nah it has always had the break over Christmas, I expect all those extras that play the Zombies musta needed a break from the gruelling schedule and toll the part takes on them! </p>

<p>Saw Ep1 of 'Stan Lee's Lucky Man'.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Looks promising. I guess the reason it is titled that way is because this is a Stan Lee idea that he has not already done in the Marvel setup. Despite the clumsy name this is a Brit production starring James Nesbitt as the usual brit style broken copper (bad gambling habit and broken marriage). He meets a mysterious woman one night and wakes up with cash and an odd bracelet on his arm that he cant remove. Turns out he can now control his luck (which looks very hard to get a hang of). Good luck seems to have to balance out with bad. eg the bad guy he owed a lot of money to dies (good), but he is suspected of involvement (bad).</p>
<p>Production values are good and the characters are interesting.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One to avoid: That new show on TV1 with the woman that is found in Times Square with no memory and covered in tattoos. Complete load of bollocks. Handled well the premise had promise. There could have been character development and a slow realisation of how this came about. Instead with the first half of the first ep (and about a day in real time) it is established that the tattoos are clues to future crimes and she was ex special ops. Although she has no memory she has retained fighting abilities and linguistics and will now tag along with a cardboard cutout FBI agent in a procedural. </p> -
Yeah blindspot is a bit crap. Lucky man has promise from the first episode. <br><br>
One to avoid is a detective drama with pippin as a New York detective tough guy. I can't figure out if it's supposed to be a piss take or serious, the co lead is a good actor, but how the fuck is Dominic Monaghan a tough guy? Ridiculous. -

They had a brief explanation for it. A doctor somehow worked out in milliseconds that she had been given a very rare drug that removed only parts of her memory. Explained as "she knows what music is but not who the Beatles are" -

<p>The creative plan is for the series to introduce new characters and civilizations, existing outside of the mythology charted by previous series and the current movie franchises.</p>
