Dr Doom SUBS 20th Jul 2023		TV Picture Box (1966 - 1993)	[YouTube Video]
Dr Doom SUBS 2nd Nov 2016		TV Limmy's Show! (2009 - Now)	[YouTube Video]
Dr Doom SUBS 11th Jun 2015		TV Doctor Who (1963 - Now)	Just a request to please not add any other selected cast members. The plan for TV world is to expand it as and when it grows so it's probable that an important show like Dr Who will have a page for each episode or at the very least a page for each 'season'. Try to think of the current page as a 'holding page' I think just a list of the Doctors would be fine for the time being.
Dr Doom SUBS 9th Jun 2015		TV Take The High Road (1980 - 2003)	Apparently this is being repeated on STV at the moment (which is why I added it) and has developed a cult following watching it for cheese value. I have pretty much zero memory of it from the time other than the theme tune.
Dr Doom SUBS 7th Jun 2015		TV The Indoor League (1973 - 1978)	[YouTube Video]
Dr Doom SUBS 23rd May 2015		TV The Avengers (1961 - 1969)	I'd add all of them all in order they were used.
Dr Doom SUBS 20th May 2015		TV Vilse I Pannkakan (1975)	[YouTube Video]
Dr Doom SUBS 13th May 2015		TV The Young Ones (1982 - 1984)	The last time I saw an episode of this I thought it had dated terribly so I'm intentionally avoiding it now. I loved it as a kid and some things are maybe best left to memory!
Dr Doom SUBS 13th May 2015		TV George & Mildred (1976 - 1979)	Surprised to see this was only on for three years. It seemed like more (In a good way) Must have been huge as it certainly made a cultural impact. My cat is called Mildred and people often assume there was another one called George! (That's not the 'Cultural Impact' I hasten to add)
Dr Doom SUBS 11th May 2015		TV The Banana Splits (1968 - 1970)	[YouTube Video]
Dr Doom SUBS 29th Apr 2015		TV True Detective (2014 - Now)	Rated 10/10 True Detective - Season One. It's hard not to believe that we're currently living in the middle of a 'Golden Age' of television when something as wonderful as 'True Detective' appears on our screens. With Hollywood now more concerned with SFX driven Superhero blockbusters and suchlike it now feels that TV is where the really deep, intelligent and interesting stuff is happening. With 10-20 hours to tell a story (or more often stories) there is a freedom to be character and script driven and that is certainly the case with TD. The friction between the two main detectives played by Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson is completely engrossing perhaps even more so than the actual solving of the crime. I won't give too much away about what happens in the first season of True Detective but let's just say that if you enjoy dark modern crime fiction like James Ellroy (LA Confidential) then there is every chance you will LOVE this. It's a dark labyrinth of 'Southern Noir' and once you've watched the first episode you will be obsessed until you've watched them all. You may need subtitles unless you happen to live in the South of the USA! My favourite US TV show since The Sopranos. 2 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
