Magic Marmalade 22nd Feb 2025		Parks And Recreation 2009 - 2015	Rated 3/10 I found four seasons of this on DVD in the charity shop, so decided to see what all the fuss was about... ...Singularly unimpressed. I sat stony-faced, and unmoved throughout the first episode of this "The Office"-humour knock-off, and was bored stiff. I called it quits after that one, and don't need to see any more. 1 person found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?

Magic Marmalade 28th Jan 2025		The Walking Dead 2010 - 2022	I found the first season DVD in the charity shop last week, and have watched it all now - pretty good, very strong Stephen King vibes, rendered in a fairly good stab a realism for the genre. I will pick up any subsequent seasons I find as and when they turn up, but will not go hunting for them, as I don't really "do TV", as I can't commit to any story that can't be told in under 3hrs. - One major plot gripe though (Spoiler!) at the end of the first episode, the dude ends up in a tank... A TANK! Stay in, and drive the bloody tank, you fool!...It's a TANK!!!!
jimbo2021 28th Jan 2025		Born Free 1974	Never knew they made it into a (short-lived) television series.
MR B PAGE 23rd Jan 2025		Born Free 1974	There are 13 episodes for 1 series and will broadcast as a re-run on the 5/2/2025 for Rewind TV.
MR B PAGE 17th Jan 2025		Twin Peaks 1989 - Now	R.I.P. David Lynch.
23skidoo 15th Jan 2025		Turn-On 1969	The story goes that it was cancelled mid-broadcast and the legend has it some places never even completed the broadcast. Why it failed has been a discussion for half a century, but the general consensus is American viewers (or perhaps more accurately network bosses) weren't accustomed to the type of surreal comedy, without point in some cases, displayed here. Monty Python was still a few years away, and Laugh-In was pushing the envelope about as far as it could be pushed. If Turn On had been made a few years later, or for something like PBS (which is where Python thrived) it probably would have done OK.
MR B PAGE 15th Jan 2025		This Is David Harper 1990	R.I.P. Tony Slattery.
MR B PAGE 14th Jan 2025		Kingdom [2007] 2007 - 2009	R.I.P. Tony Slattery.
MR B PAGE 14th Jan 2025		Whose Line Is It Anyway? 1988 - 1999	R.I.P. Tony Slattery.
23skidoo 10th Jan 2025		I Am Groot 2022 - 2023	Technically the series ended in 2023 as there has been no news of a third season, however as of late 2023 there was still hope for a third season. I'll put an end date for now.
23skidoo 10th Jan 2025		Power 2014 - 2020	Someone took off the 2020 end date. As I mentioned Power Book II is not a continuation of the original series, which concluded in 2020. I put it back.
23skidoo 10th Jan 2025		The Penguin 2024 - Now	As of early January 2025 media is reporting that a second season is under consideration and the show hasn't been cancelled. However the first season was intended to be a miniseries. Then again this has happened before (the UK miniseries Victoria was supposed to end after 8 episodes and ended up running 3 seasons. Ditto Star Trek: Picard wasn't planned for a 3-season run either until it did.)

albert 5th Dec 2024		The Banana Splits 1968 - 1970	The British version differs to the USA version with different running times per episode, they might have chopped the segments and rearranged them into different shows, There were a lot of comments about this on Amazon when the series first got issued on dvd. In case you are not aware, there is a Banana Splits horror movie which was made a few years back. The lovable bunch are now animatronics which go on the rampage after learning that their show is to be axed. I don't think it was a successful transition.
MR B PAGE 2nd Dec 2024		T.J. Hooker 1982 - 1986	T.J. Hooker will broadcast again as a re-run for Legend TV channel on the 13/12/2024.
