Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

From a comment made by bubblegun in another thread I thought I would start a topic about binge watching TV. So what do you tramp through quickly and how often have you watched said shows. I'll binge through most stuff, currently on Auf Pet & watched it more times than I care to remember. Fav season is #2.




Only added a prefix cause I couldnt post a new topic without it.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

24, Desperate Housewives and Family Guy. Could watch these shows over and over again :)

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I'm currently regoing through Star Trek. I'm on s1 of TNG ATM.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I'm currently watching Gang Related.
I watched the pilot and liked it, but 'forgot' to watch when it aired

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Got all 9 series of Roseanne to watch :-) not seen it in years. Hope it is still funny.

Scott and Bailey, ITV drama, watched the first season last night.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

M*A*S*H was a pretty staple view diet for my wife and I, wish we could have the BBC versions without the canned laughter. It's 20 min programme fits nicely in the "just before bed" slot.

ATM I'm catching up on the Aussie Rules Football. The wishlist pulled in the HD versions (silly thing, don't have HD). Trouble is the rest of family don't like it so it's either late night or in 20 min (quarter) chucks between the kids watching repeats of The Simpsons/Futurama.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Me too! on season 4 now. The show's getting darker but I still love it.

Darling buds of may.

Been watching it over the last few days, I do enjoy David Jason, a very funny man.
Also Catherine zeta Jones is the added bonus :)

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Stargate SG-1. They've put the whole series back on UK Netflix, and unlike Sky, they've got the widescreen versions of the earlier series and the re-edited pilot.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Not TV but just binged on all 8 harry potter films over 3 days :) phew *wipes brow*

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

There is a last film watched thread here

http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/23...-page-294.html

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Ah yes I know but this thread is about binge watching and watching 8 films from a series of films over 3 days would in my book be binge watching plus I don't want to rate said films :)

Maybe this should/could be moved to general entertainment.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Well if you have watched a film or series of films you can still post in there.

This is a binge watching TV shows thread.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

My bad :D

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Watched the first two seasons of American Horror Story

Some great plot twists and fantastic casting, Jessica Lange is simply superb.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Fringe, up to S2E09 at the moment :o:

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Up until last week I watched Dexter on Netflix, and could not believe the ending I just sat in front of the tv stunned at the (rubbish ending) IMO.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Animé in HD and widescreen. 50 episodes of 25min each plus a follow on feature film. With the new HD smart TV I can play them off my portable HDD instead of watching on a small PC screen. :)

Burn Notice, getting through this at a steady rate.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I had a 'Haven' binge over the weekend, I had six episodes queued up that I just hadnt had time to watch, so now Im just waiting for the finale next week.

Burn notice done think chuck may be my next target.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Christmas films with happy endings. :D

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Ultimate survival Alaska.
Watched season 1 yesterday and half way through season 2 today.
I watch anything about Alaska and it's on my list of places to visit.

Finished ultimate survival, now watching The Legend of Mick Dodge. A very funny, knowledgeable outdoors man who lives in the temperate forests of the Olympic peninsular, Washington state.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

ReGenesis, although i don't know if 2 or 3 episodes a night is a binge.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I think anything more than 2 shows on consecutive nights would qualify.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I was going to say 3+, which is the same definition, I believe.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I'm working my way through The Americans at the moment.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Hardcore Pawn - Know its rigged but still entertaining :)

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Trying to binge watch Breaking Bad but I'm struggling to stay interested.

You seen the million dollar one yet?

Keep going it does get better!

Started on Chuck the other night, forgotten how entertaining the show is.

Got to the last episode of chuck season 2, starting season 3 tomorrow:)

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Finished that the other week. It was brilliant :)


Started on Netflix's Marco Polo yesterday. Pretty good so far (3 eps in out of 10).

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

The 4400 forgot how good this was.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Just put all 4 seasons of Game of Thrones onto a portable HDD to watch on the smart TV in the lounge. Could take a while. :)

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Love Games Of Thrones (especially Jon Snow aka Kit Harington) :D

I'm binging on Forever atm.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Not having Sky Atlantic we've never watched it, apart from some clips, so I think it's going to be a nice treat.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

We've just watched the first three episodes. Absolutely superb. I can safely say we'll be binging on this.

Now at least one of those dragon eggs has got to hatch. Don't spoil the surprise.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Anyone heard much about 'The Affair' from Showtime ?

It starts on Sky Atlantic tonight and I was wondering whether its worth a look.

Link

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Im guessing from the title that its one I will avoid.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

lol that's why I asked , it seems an ok cast but don't know to much else.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Bloodline on Netflix in 4k and season 35 of This Old House.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Outlander and bloody good it is too.

Thank goodness this show wasn't around last year otherwise Alex Salmond would've highlighted it to all Scots and they'd be independent by now.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

One of the show's my wife loves. Not my barrow tho.

Watching Penny Dreadful, on ep7 of season 1, it's superbly written and we'll acted.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Watched first two series of GOT. Brilliant. But for the moment Maxheadroom, the series.

I remember these on MTV but forgot how good they were. Effects from their era but the stories really hold up well.

Got the DVD rip with the background material as well.:)

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Watching The Librarians Season 1 atm - quite entertaining, loosely a bit like Warehoue 13.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Similar to Warehouse 13 but came long before it. Might be worth watching the movies.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I tend to alternate my tv between adult dramas with good doses of sex and/or violence in them, sci fi/fantasy shows and "wholesome" tv shows.

I am in wholesome tv mode.

A series appeared on ITV in the afternoons several years ago and I caught a few episodes and was hooked. I don't think the series was ever finished by ITV which was a shame and really it should've have been in primetime but I have got my hands on it.

I am binge watching Everwood.

It's a story about a New York brain surgeon who moves his son and daughter to a small town after his wife is killed in a car crash.

This is one of those series' that the yanks do really well. Really well written, really well acted with great comedy scenes too. It stars Treat Williams as the dad and former child star Gregory Smith (now in Rookie Blue) as the son. These two on screen together are electric and are THE show.

As long as you don't mind American family values with heavy "message" ridden story lines, teen angst and lots of teenage shouting and sulking, this is highly recommended. I love it!

Seriously considering digging out those Waltons boxsets or Michael Langdon stuff when I'm finished with this.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

The Prisoner. Watched first two episodes last night.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Watching Tomorrow people.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Cowboy Bebop. Critically acclaimed as one of the best animé out there. Got it in 1080p with optional Japanese speech and English subs.



We're half way through the TV series but this clip is from the movie spin off.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Fringe, in between up to date shows.

For those who've never heard of it, think X-files without the E.T aspect. It's very well scripted and moves away from a procedural style in season 2.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Just watched all 10 episodes of Santa Clarita Diet.

Netflix new Zombie horror/comedie staring Drew Barrymore, it was really good. Pretty dark humour due to the zombie eating people thing.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Yeah Fringe was pretty good. Watched it when it was shown first time around. One of those shows that I couldn't miss.

---------- Post added at 00:06 ---------- Previous post was at 00:03 ----------

Watched the trailer on Netflix the other night. Thought it would be something I liked. Will give it a whirl once I'm up to date with Vikings. Vikings is a firm favourite in our household. Fell way behind following the birth of our son. Now that he's in a regular sleeping pattern we can catch up with this and I'll finally get to watch the last series of Boardwalk Empire :D I miss sleep

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Watching all 6 seasons of Teen Wolf again.

I cant believe they are ending it after just 6 seasons when its so popular.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Going to start this tonight. I've missed Tim Olyphant since Justified finished.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

The last thing I binge watched was Wyonna Earp, it was pretty good, looking forward to season 2.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Timeless.

Really quite good.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

At least someone likes it :D

It had an interesting story arc but the procedurals were just too dull for me to consider riding it out.

As the point of the thread though it is actually something I'd probably binge watch at a later date. Just knocked it off my weekly viewing schedule.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Quantico S1.

Good show. It's not perfect. Someone involved in the production obviously likes montages as there seems to be at least one in every episode, which is annoying. There are also various plot points that just seem to appear just when the plot needs them to. It does generally avoid the character suddenly becoming an expert in a subject when they need to (think Chloe in 24), although the pretty blonde cheerleader type suddenly becomes a l33t hax0r (hacker) in one of the episodes, despite showing no interest in technology before.

Good series, with some flaws, and the main actress (Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra) is a good actress.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

The Tunnel: Sabotage.

Gave it a miss because of the hectic scheduling issues they had, given that it involved a lot of terror attacks on France in the midst of actual terror attacks in France. Definitely as a good as the first season. It's non procedural so only focuses on one story arc over 8 episodes, 5 down and 3 to go.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story

Available on UK Netflix

Great cast, bit mortified by Travolta's appearance but still. The most incredible not guilty verdict I've seen.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Just finished watching The Magicians, Seasons 1 & 2 (26 Eps over 3 weeks).

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

What are your thoughts on it?.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I actually quite enjoyed it.

I was a bit wary of it to start with, wondering if it would be another teen show.
It turned out not to be, and I soon got into it and found myself wanting to keep going, its really quite dark in places.

Now looking forward to Season 3 (Next year).

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

I tried about 5 episodes of the magicians and didn't continue. I didn't dislike it though so there's a possibility of revisiting it.

Currently watching Agents of Shield. Why I dismissed this and never gave it a go past the first episode is beyond me. Just finished Season 2. There's some ridiculous clichés persistent throughout but it is derived from a comic source I guess and doesn't take away from the enjoyment.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

The Prisoner (original 1967 series filmed in the lovely Welsh village of Portmeirion), just been repeated on True Entertainment. Seen the odd episode before, but finally got round to watching all 17 episodes in the hope it would make sense. It didn't of course, but it was great none the less. If anyone can explain the last episode to me I'd be more than grateful (!), think the writers must have been using much 60's herbal medication !

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Not exactly binged, as I tend to get bored with most TV shows if I watch more than two or three episodes in one sitting, but I've just finished watching season 3 of Gotham. Excellent ending to an excellent season. I have to admit, I did lose interest during season 2, but stuck with it, and they've improved the series no end.



I know it's been shown, but I've included spoiler tags as the scene I talked about was such a nice surprise, I don't want to ruin it for those who haven't seen the episode.

Re: Binge watch TV, what are you binging on ATM.
 

Gotham was certainly much better in Season 3.


I'm currently watching Season 3 of 12 Monkeys, which was released all in one go.
