    My Wife and I just finished the Shogun series from 1980 on DVD. Now we are on to the new season of Blacklist, the first season of A Discovery of Witches, and the 2020 series of All Creatures Great and Small. We tried watching the new Walker Texas Ranger. Ugh, delete.

    Just watched the 5-chapter Part 1 of Lupin on Netflix. They say a part 2 is confirmed and is coming soon.
    I loved these 5 episodes. Very charming show, with great action, great acting, nice storytelling, compelling characters.
    I particularly loved the French locations, all places I have visited (including Étretat).
    This series is rather perfect. 10 out of 10.

    A few other of my favorite series are
    West Wing
    House
    The Middle
    Young Sheldon
    Dead Like Me
    Grey's Anatomy

    One of my guilty pleasures was the original TV Roswell Series. The new one isn't bad but its a lot darker and I don't know if it go renewed.

    What's Fast and Loud?

    I'm just facepalming I timed out in my edits to add Avenue 5 to Sky One.
    (hence there being a gap there, I forgot the name of the show in time).
    I'm not even sure what network, but I've Tivo'd Sabrina The Teenage Witch and had a phase of that show over a year ago.

    Fast and Loud is a great car show on DMX on Freeview 8pm weekdays. Well worth a look if you like old cars turned into hotrods. Funny too, the garage owner is what we Brits would call a character.

    Are you referring to the 90's kid show on Sabrina or the more recent Netflix show that is definitely not a kid show?

    90's Sabrina.
    Turns out it's Channel 5 'who knew?'
    I got my retro on re watching

    All the seasons from start to when she went off to college.
    Although, I remember the Sabrina college years but never saw it when it was new to me in late 2018, but then I saw older episodes I had seen before get added into that TiVo folder.

    Sky One is showing the Superbowl Live...

    That's pretty unexpected, since I don't remember anyone promoting it.

    Kansas just won the coin toss.

    I had Sky One on already, turned on the TV, whatever, next thing I know; there's a Superbowl starting in the background?! - A Superbowl that I heard about in the news earlier, by chance.
    The Buccaneers are the first team ever playing at their home stadium, random fact the news told me, earlier, but here it is, on in the background, Yay!..
    Something cool to watch.
    ...
    It's like the American version of the FA Cup.
    Not really a TV series, but a win nonetheless.
    I'm watching the Superbowl, and I never even tried. That's awesome, I didn't have to upgrade or subscribe or even have to change the channel! :D

    It's on BBC1.
    You don't even need to watch commercials.

    Well they're just peddling it to us huh.

    Was a time when the NFL moved into Regent Street and they played Wembley.
    What happened to that?

    ...
    Swear every time someone makes a touchdown, someone plays Welcome To The Jungle; I keep hearing the intro.

    UK Sports could learn a thing or 2.
    Apparently my local team's the only one with cheerleaders, who knew they all didn't have them.
    [​IMG]
    I swear I went to school with that blonde one there; go Eagles!

    Still, no Welcome To The Jungle when someone scores a goal, yet.

    Covid happened to it.
    They were playing at least one game a season in London.
    Superbowl coverage here goes back to at least the 80s. Channel 4 used to show it along with their excellent Kabaddi coverage.

    I wished we got the American Commercials, apparently that's half the fun, and a big deal about Superbowl TV, Sky One aren't giving me ad breaks, and since finding out BBC got it, I flipped between the two and I'm seeing more or less the same thing.

    Different UK studio, BBC got that live guest on couch, Sky One got that 1 guy on a couch with webcams, as well as 2 people on the ground in FL; with Sky Sports microphones the couch talks to...
    I'm seeing a 2nd guy on the couch now, American guy, so, I guess Sky's not as fussed about COVID as I thought.
    I'm seeing as much game as BBC.

    I just did another test (because I could), another comparison, since BBC One HD is 108 on Virgin and Sky One HD is 109 on Virgin, this test was pretty easy, but I did the test, and it turns out Sky One's like 3 seconds ahead of BBC One when it comes to sync; I can see something on Sky One, turn to BBC One and wait for it.

    Just a random test.


    Okay, now I'm seeing an advert on Sky One while BBC is in the studio showing replays.

    Ooo! One of the ads if for Resident Alien, Thursday at 9, on Sky One.

    I'll catch them on YouTube later, I'm just happy it's on.

    I mean, Welcome To The Jungle should come to all sporting events in my opinion.
    I keep hearing the stadium playing it, that's a good idea.

    I'm surprised there's no Superbowl thread going on tonight.
    Must all be having Superspreader Superbowl parties instead...

    How many parties will be in the news :(

    stupid covid.

    Can't have a party now without the police busting it up and fining you for having a party, if there wasn't a pandemic going on, I'd be all over that policy.

    IDK if I'm going to watch it all, the people I want to win are winning, the show ends on Sky One @ 4:30 am, I'm not that invested, it's really not my timezone, and I'm wondering what else I can watch.

    *I changed to Comedy Central, South Park is on...
    S04 E13 Helen Killed The Musical...

    think I'm gonna turn back to Sky One.
