Wolf Hall is very good.

I must confess, I went back to see the rest of Sons of Anarchy.  I have decided, in retrospect, to rename the show.  It's better known as "Guns of Anarchy" due to the high body count from such weapons.

I'm constantly looking for more good British Comedy.  I've seen most of the more obvious classic stuff, just found Saxondale (thought we'd seen all the Steve Coogan stuff) and am waiting for more Peep Show and also Stewart Lee.

Have you seen Black Books?

Estragon: I can't go on like this.

No.  Not yet.  We just discovered Saxondale, and are rewatching Peep Show in anticipation of the final season.  I'll check that out.

Ah, now I remember.  We weren't so keen on it.  Don't like the laugh track for one thing.  Bill Bailey is great on Q.I., so we were sort of bummed that this didn't work for us.  I do like Jimmy Carr's standup, speaking of Q.I. panelists.  We've watched Jo Brand on Getting On, which we like.

Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

The Man in the High Castle

This, at the rate of an episode a night.  Now at #8.  And I also just watched the pilot to "You're the Worst."  OK, but the jury's still out on this one.

My kids are warming to Supergirl. I'm not completely convinced yet.

This whole "don't mention Superman or Bats" throughout all the DC shows out at the moment, is quite frustrating.  Mainly because Barry, Oliver and Kara are pretty crap at being heroes, let alone super-heroes. The entire seasons' storylines are something that either Batman or Supes could sort out in a breath - literally in one case.

They need to man up.

What? They don't (didn't?) have pox on Krypton?

Not until the Europeans arrived.

My cable provider or the networks are really scraping the barrel. I think TNT is just running time to kill to fill the time.

Whoever dumps the "free" content to the on demand library dumped the first season of From Dusk Til Dawn in the "free" movies category, so I watched some of that.

The writing can be a bit kludge "Tonight the surprises will keep on coming" but it beats the poo out of CSI redux. We actually get to see Big Kahuna Burger, the franchise in "that" scene of pulp fiction. We actually have a big Kahuna Burger in Imperial Beach.
