    I watch Defiance. I'm three episodes behind atm though.

    Enjoying the new Falling Skies? I haven't been able to get into it as much this season for some reason. Not the same when the war is so even.

    Any good? Seems like a decent premise and I'm a fan of Grant Bowler.

    I still like the show, but yeah it's not the same. First two seasons they were scrounging for every little thing and they were constantly on the back foot. Seems like more of an out and out sci-fi show now rather then a survival type show.

    It looked gun the first couple of episodes. It started to get a bit episode-to-episode though without an ongoing theme though so I stopped watching it religiously. Plan on catching up soon.

    Yeah indeed. If Season 1 was like this, I probably wouldn't still be watching it tbh. Keeps me interested because I know the backstory and want to see a resolution but it's gone a bit far now.

    Ah fair enough, not a real fan of that. Although it was done pretty well in Fringe. Might give it a go once I finish off Revolution.

    Yeah I would've liked this story arc to come in later. But I can imagine them going back to Season 1 style in the future if there was some sort of double cross etc
    Wasn't a huge fan of the time skip either.

    I reckon a more ongoing theme is coming; you can even tell what it's going to be. There just wasn't enough time invested in that arc in each episode for a little while IMO so I stopped being really interested for the next episode if you get me. Looks promising anyway.

    I'll hit you up when I start watching it.

    Anyone keen on the Mole coming back? should bring back Bowler as host, was a gun show

    Yeah, the time skip is what ruined it for you. During that time they've made solid bonds and alliances with the rebels and new alien duders and even the war up, but you never saw any of that, and that would've made a great season on it's own. Now it kinda feels independent as you haven't had this gradual change in type of show, it's changed in the time skip, now it's too sudden.

    Yeah, agree with this.

    Downloaded the latest got, walking dead and 5 seasons of parks & recreation.

    I've kept reading that its funnier/better than modern family, which I'm a huge fan, but from the couple episodes I saw when it first came out, I was a bit meh.

    Anyone like it?

    I've got a couple of friends who are big fans who said it took them a few episodes to get into it, but then they really loved it. Worth sticking with apparently.

    Got a bit bored of Hannibal. I still rate it but it lacks...something.. that makes you want to watch the next episode immediately.

    Tell me more about it. I saw the promo. Not sure if it's worth a watch or not.
