Finished both Malcolm in the Middle and Futurama on the weekend.
Really enjoyed MITM, Futurama, like Family Guy and other similar series, have some great episodes and some shit ones, but by and large are just OK and easy time fillers.
Just started My Name is Earl.
-
Watched S1 of Billy The Kid, is pretty good, supposedly based on his life, touching on his childhood as an Irish immigrant through to his seemingly unwanted notoriety as Billy The Kid.
Also finished Dark Matter.
Was pretty good all up.
all these new Jason's managed to find the right Chicago at the same time, and I think it was the original abducted Jason that found his way to his family...I guess the other thing, is there must be multiple Jason 2s out there as well, while there is also his mate Leighton that he sent off with 50 vials.
Be interesting to see if they do a 2nd season, and where they go with it.

Dark
German apocalyptic time travel thriller.
Starts out genuinely interesting and compelling in the first series but ( like so many other shows ) just descends into utter shit in the following couple of seasons.
The time travel goes from exciting and surprising to convoluted, confusing, ridiculous, depressing and just utterly fucken boring.
I’m annoyed the girl is still making me watch it.

So, turns out Dark Matter had 9 eps, not 8, decent finish that I think points to not needing a 2nd series, whether they do another or not, who knows.

Top notch telly, creates suspense like no other.
Excellent recommendation.
Haven't found it suspenseful as such - but a bloody good series. Gritty, well-written, well-acted. No cliches or stereotypes. A really fresh watch
-
@Victor-Meldrew that's interesting, I can't think of another show that built tension for me as well as this.
I was typically on edge for the last ten minutes of every episode as was the other half. But maybe that's a Jeff Daniels thing for me

Are you a fucking lunatic?
It is/was fucking good... and yeah, got a little bit confusing - but there's a website for that. A really fucking well done and well thought out website for that.
Get smarter, enjoy it.
(Genuinely... that website is fucking well done, and I needed to trawl through it before each episode to remind me of what the fuck was the fuck.
And if that ain't for you... maybe... Love Island?) -

But it’s still shit. This last season is dragging and it is SO fucken boring.
If Time Travel is gonna be in a TV series/movie it has to be full of action ( Terminator ) or hilarious ( Back to the Future ) this is well and truly neither.
I think you liked it cos it occasionally had tits in it.

I thought it was really good with only the last season going a little bit OTT with the time fuckery.
But it was never boring for me.
I'm currently watching All the Light We Cannot See (it has the main guy from Dark in it), it's pretty boring despite the WW2 setting and Hugh Laurie/Mark Ruffalo.

Does it need some entertaining time travel in it?

It actually became an ok show - plus only 4 eps.

I hear you there - the third season I recall was exactly the same as season 1 but with the characters switched around - unbelievibly lazy writing. I gave up totally 2 shows into season 3.

I wish I had.
I watched the whole thing because I was made to.
Every single character had only two emotions. Confused and/or Angry. No happiness just confusing ridiculousness which reached its peak when there was four versions of the dark haired chick ( Martha ? ) interacting with each other.
Give me flux capacitors and Skynet any day.
