Another new show which I saw only last night is Supernatural. The first episode is very good and scared the missus.....

As you can tell its all about the Supernatural (ghosts and stuff). Its well shot and the special effects are very good.

Really enjoyed this pilot show and looks like a show I will be sticking with.

Treshold, Watched eps. 1and 2 and it's going on my watch list. Cool show sofar

Head Cases, watched the first ep. and thought it was pretty decent, got some laughs out of me so I will see what the next couple of eps. will do.

How I met your Mother, saw eps.1 can't tell much of it yet. Seemed to be pretty standard comedy. Dougie Howser guy was funny tough.

Just Legal, OKish not really good, have to watch a couple more eps. to judge it better.

My name is Earl, normally 20min comedies are crap this one is decent got some laughs out of me so will try a couple of eps.

I think I'd rather save a few up before watching it. I'd hate to have to watch Lost 1 episode per week, watched the first series over a period of about 2 weeks and I'd like to do the same with the 2nd. Apparently the first episode of series 2 ends on a cliffhanger (no surprise there then) , it would be nice to have the next one ready to watch! I've got all of series 4 of 24 to watch yet so I'll probably do that before starting Lost series 2.

Your right it is far better to watch the episodes in a row rather than one a week. I just havent got the will power to resist. Fair play to you for waiting.

BTW you will love 24 session 4 its a good one.

This is so b****y annoying being restricted in my downloads, it's just not right with so many shows having to be waved away in the hope of having enough bandwidth left this month to get the few I CAN NOT miss

Just hope some programs I can not get will turn up in the UK over time, btw anyone heard if SKY1 have secured Las Vegas season 3?

^Agree, five months since I finished s1 but it was definitely worth the wait, seems some of the rumours could turn out to be true.

I would say its good.
Its actually the wife thats into it. But I sort of got into it when she started watching. The first season is pretty good, especially the pilot.

Season 2 is also fairly good and I just started on season 3. Though to be honest season 3 is starting to feel a bit same-ish or repetitive.

Still, if you have the time, go for it. OC is also filmed in HD so the quality is good if you can find those 700mb dl's!

Surprised SKY1 have bought Nip/Tuck forward but I suppose they want to try and capture some of the CH4 viewers even if it means putting Rescue Me back a few months.

It'll be the first time I have watched Nip/Tunk on SKY1 and not downloaded it

I liked the idea of Rescue Me but I was disappointed with the execution.

I've seen it in a November listing but obviously until SKY start promoting it you have to take any listing with a pinch of salt

I love Rescue Me, second season was perhaps even more close to the edge with some disturbing images/situations and the usual laughs, if you didn't take to the first season then the second isn't for you either

I tried with RM, I watched probably about a third maybe even half of the first series but it just didn't gel with me. I like Denis Leary and make a point of watching just about anything that he's in. and I thought that some of the scenes where he was having a heart to heart with his brother were brilliant, but some of the supporting characters didn't seem to have any depth to them and were more like caricatures rather than actual people.

Ok, watched Love Inc. and it's crap. Also watched Criminal Minds and it's pretty decent show, nice cliffhanger at the end. Will try a couple of eps.but it has to get a bit better.
