What have you been watching this week? (w/e September 18)

Posted on September 18, 2009 | 2 comments |

Thank God for September. The schedules are starting to fill up again and there'll be more for everyone to watch from now. Merlin's on tomorrow I think, but I'm not sure I'll be tuning in. You?

Episode three of The Fixer was a bit of a letdown, with nice Kudos cinematography covering up for Spooks-style silliness and character weirdness, but still not bad. The Daily Show's back – yey! Mad Men continues from strength to strength. Vampire Diaries doesn't, and I'm watching the second ep of Supernatural later.

Dragons' Den online edition has now arrived on BBC2 and is a more sedate affair. Liking them online dragons a lot, especially Julie Meyer who's quite inspiring in her way. Everything else I watched I think I've reviewed now.

As always, no spoilers unless you're going to use the <spoiler> </spoiler> tags, please

    Just watched Merlin. I have been missing it since the end of series 1... Love that show. And it was a strong start.

    But during the week in question...

    I saw Supernatural and oh boy. I adore it. This show has really improved tenfold on its humble "X Files-lite" beginning. The stakes are so high now and I really feel for the brothers.

    Mad Men was exceptional this week in my opinion. I adored the fantasy sequences and pretty much the whole episode. Even Pete failed to annoy me.

    True Blood had a so-so finale.

    The other thing I have been watching is Outrageous Fortune series 5 on home-burnt dvds as I failed to find the episodes online and needed to pull strings with real life kiwi contacts. The lengths I go to...

    I need to watch Peep Show and I guess there was a Derren Brown Event this week (though it didn't seem to cause as much of a stir...?). Tomorrow...

    I am not sure when I will find the time to finish watching Rescue Me or Better off Ted (or my Dexter season 3 rewatch). Work is hell at the mo...

    I tried to watch Merlin at lunch, but couldn't get more than 10 minutes in before I got bored. Supernatural was great though.
