    LOVED Broadchurch season 1. LOVED it. Olivia Colman is AMAZING. But (those who have not seen it) be prepared: it is NOT a "feel good" show. Season 2 also good, but not AS good (a little overwrought).
    Luther was a little OTT for my taste. But Idris is always good.

    I agree entirely, especially about Broadchurch season two. Absolutely worth watching, but no where near as good as the first season. And I know what you mean about Luther, but since there weren't that many episodes and they were spread out I still really enjoyed it. I actually feel the same way about Sherlock.

    I did know that, but I've never actually seen the musical. Musicals aren't really my thing, but I have no less respect for the actors/actresses in them. The skill it takes to act AND sing in one movie/show/play is remarkable.

    Was that Brett singing? I noticed at the end of the video, the credits mentioned two other singers: Vic Damone and Bill Shirley. Did they voice over the part where Brett sings?

    It's not him singing. The voice of Audrey Hepburn was also dubbed, and I think that singer died last year.

    That's a shame. Though it really sounded like it could have been Jeremy singing that.

    Anyone ever catch that show called Breaking Bad? It was pretty good.

    You know, I have never seen it, but I really want to.

    Guess I'm just too lazy to start. I'm even behind on "Game of Thrones".

    I can't finish it. Not because it's boring - because it's rushing towards a horrible conclusion and I just can't look. I can handle Better Call Saul fine, though.

    On season one of Game of Thrones for the second time. I really enjoy watching it again and catching little things that didn't mean much when I first saw it.

    Westworld, better call Saul, black mirror. Breaking bad was great. Still watch walking dead at this point only because I'm committed. Show is kinda bad these days though.

    Did you watch Parks and Recreation? I have never liked Amy Poehler and decided to try this show just because. I love this show now, were almost to season 6. She is still super annoying but ties the whole show together. Ron Swanson and April and Andy are awesome. Aziz isn't my favorite even though I think he is great.

    The hard part is comparing it to The Office. It is like the same show with different characters. I gave it 5 episodes or so just to be fair and the wife and I love it.

    Well if it's like the office in that regard then it must have good characters in order to be entertaininG. A lot of what I feel makes the office so good is the characters. I think the show was much better when Steve Carell was portraying Michael.
