I love a good vampire story 

Those series are often better than the description indicates.

Buffy is my all time favourite tv show and you could never have guessed from the description what quality the writing, acting and storylines were.

 

My fave show from this year was The Killing

I loved the big fat gypsie wedding programs (that was this year wasnt it ??? )

Hotel Inspector

3 in a bed

The restaurant inspector

Masterchef (the professionals)

Great British Bake off

My transexual summer (wonderful touching documentary)

I agree with these as the two drama highlights of the year. And Gillian Anderson was in both of these.

Umm was she in "Crimson" Loro?..*scratches head* I can't remember her? there were a fair few cameos though... Put me right ... but maybe you're thinking of her in Bleak House?

She's fantastic on BBC anyways

But most importanly - somebody agrees with me on The Crimson Petal and the White

Yes I did Avalon... wasn't it funny?  

She spoke perfect english too, seemingly without an accent. 

It was funny, rosie.  And I loved the way she was poking around in stuff like she does in 'The Killing'

I don't watch much TV. Partly because of my hearing and partly because the vast majority of it is so much dross. Thus if I do watch/listen it's got to be something really enjoyable. Generally not too long either, though I did watch/listen to the 6 hours of Pride and Prejudice the other day.

 

So, what have I watched this year.....?

 

Merlin

Dr Who

Masterchef

CSI

The Apprentice

Big Brother (boy, was that tough!)

Strictly Come Dancing

The odd film here or there

Although... it did make me miss her... 

If the BBC can put her in that, maybe....

I can't get into Dr Who! 

Is it as good as they say now? I do like that Matt Smith. I couldn't stand the last scottishy-quiff-overacting one  

FM

I've stopped watching the Soaps so that's left me with plenty of time for other dross: Big Bro, Z Factor, Strictly etc.  All froth and bubble stuff which was made more enjoyable by nattering in the highlight threads.

 

I've enjoyed Downton Abbey and the recent Great Expectations 3 parter mainly because they're a bit of light drama. Always caught up with the Graham Norton Show, HIGNFY and I tried out The Cafe on Sky 1 but that was a real slow burner which never really got going.  Other than that, I've been dipping in to BBC4 and watching a few music biogs.

Cosmopolitan

Spongey - I really loved Without You - I'm going to watch Public Enemies next week with Anna Friel too - I like her

 

I've watched and enjoyed

 

Downton Abbey

The Apprentice (and Junior Apprentice)

Scott and Bailey

Strictly

Corrie (I can't give it up)

and I'm behind but still watching Grey's Anatomy

 

I'm sure there's more I've enjoyed

 

 

edit

 

Dr Who.. how could I forget Dr Who?

 

and

 

the Good Wife

Aww, David Tennant wasn't THAT bad, surely?

 

I have to admit I was a bit dubious about Matt Smith. But he was great, right from the start. He plays it quite quirky. but doesn't overdo it, IMO. I like it.
