Ziva's dead and DiNozzo leaves to raise their daughter he didn't know about.

I remember Ducky (David McCallum) from The Man from U.N.C.L.E. TV series. He was a secret agent battling the global crime organization THRUSH.

I'm watching Containment in the vain hope that it might get to be good.  That's highly unlikely, so, no, not my favorite, but I need to watch something between episodes of Game of Thrones.

Apparently Weatherly is getting his own show where he plays dr. Phil.

He was in Sapphire and Steel, too. With Purdy.

Purdy sure was purdy.

After a year of waiting for its return Bloodline season 2 was released on Netflix. So horrible. I am very sad. Its like they threw plot lines into a hat and just pulled them out at random. Literally no storyline fits together. I feel 100% certain there was no storyboard put together on this one. But, Yes, I did watch the whole thing. As one would do just hoping that it gets better as time goes on. Oh well, back to watching 30 Rock from start to finish for the 3rd time. Now THATS a show that never let me down.

The BEST TV show on the air is The Amy Schumer Show.

Really digging preacher, but it's damned near impossible to talk about it without spoilers.

Two characters that died in a previous episode are back. My mom got all pissed that we were getting a fractured non-linear timeline ala tarantino, but nope, it's something else.

I honestly didn't recognize Ruth Nega from her previous role on agents of shield, and I gave up on that show shortly before it supposedly "got good". When she was on aos, her entire role was to "be mysterious" an angle I am rarely fond of. And people who haven't read the comic don't know poo about tulip, but her intro was pretty damn' unforgettable.

This was probably the slowest episode of preacher, but it was an interesting trip down the road of consequences from the hard hitting action the previous world building episodes.

Also, cassidy in the pointy hat and poncho are bless'ed classic. That's a solid halloween costume right there.

Ugh, I can't sleep.

I'm watching Orphan Black.  It's sort of jumped the shark a while back and I'm like, oh get it over with already.  I'm into Season 4, but the show appears to be ongoing, like The 100.  I'm sort of tired of both of them for throwing increasingly implausible twists into the story lines.  I get the impression that the writers expected the show to go for a couple seasons and when they kept getting renewals, they were hard pressed to come up with new plot devices, so we get stuff that's basically retreads from other series.  I guess this is the problem with a large number of tv shows.  It's the rare program that has cast and writers who voluntarily quit because they realize it's time to end the project.

Billions with Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis.  It's really engaging.  About Wall Street, insider trading and the efforts of the law to rein it in.

I started watching another Showtime produced drama, sort of gothic horror set in Victorian London -- Penny Dreadful.  It has relatively high production values and a good cast.  I've seen two episodes of the first season so far, not great but entertaining at least.

Nice to see you around, Nobbo.

I admire your fortitude. I didn't get through the first episode.

That show really must be pants.  I haven't heard a single good word about it.

Personally, I'm ploughing through American Horror Story. Season 3 at the mo' and Kathy Bates is just marvellous.
