8 episodes of The Wire season 3 - sheer class

Off to see Harry Potter tomorrow with my the wife and eldest son

Yesterday I watched Sherlock on the telly.
I think it is a nice show. Would love to see the second series.
It's co-created by Steven Moffat, who's the headwriter and producer of Doctor Who at the moment, and Mark Gatiss, who wrote several Doctor Who episodes.

I've also seen the new Torchwood series and it's really cool! *horns*
I really like it that it's one big story. The first two series where great as well, but Children Of Earth was so good! Loved it. "Miracle Day" is going to be great as well.

Yes I know.
27 August 2011 Doctor Who will be back with an episode called "Let's Kill Hitler". Not really a Doctor Who title, if you'd ask me.

Now watching Angra's Rebirth World Tour DVD ... and it  *horns* One of the few musical DVD that I have watched more than once entirely.

I've been watching the Satellite DVD 'Evening Dreams'. The music is  *horns*, but the overall performance is quite boring. The singer keeps his eyes closed all the time :-\.

I've watched a few episodes of Flikken Maastricht a way back. It was better than I expected! And Maastricht is a nice place (except for all the crimes ;) ).

Still, I like UK detectives/police series more.

I've just watched All Creatures Great And Small, but my dad and I just call it 'James Herriot'.
We have all series on dvd. I LOVE it. I dunno why... It's so comforting, or something. As if we take a look at better times, although quite clearly this isn't always the case! Every age has its own sorrows.

We just finished series 3. Next is series 4 with another actor for Helen, which I think is a pity.

Anyone into this series?

I already know! ;)
And Peter Davison's daughter plays the Doctor's daughter in Doctor Who (with David Tennant as the 10th Doctor). But perhaps you knew that as well!

I saw some of the series years ago.  Also read all the books.  They were excellent ... and yes, somehow comforting.

Once again, not a "Now Playing" thread, as I watched this movie last week: The Man From Earth. One of the best movie I ever watched. I can't say more about it, and I advise you not to google it, but rather to watch it on DVD without reading any plot sum-up. I know this may sound weird, but believe me, that's the better way to do it!

Yup, saw a lotta that some 30 years ago. I was living in a dorm, sharing a kitchen with a vet student, so you bet  ::)

A bit like Little House On The Prairie.

Anyone say cheese ?  :D

And whose doctor is Doctor Who ?

When he arrives, the patient says "You Who".

Hey guys, am I gettin a bit too sarcastic in my old age ?  ;D

The Man From Earth

Draco, I don't think that this short plot summary from IMDb is a spoiler; on the contrary, it actually got me stoked:

"An impromptu goodbye party for Professor John Oldman becomes a mysterious interrogation after the retiring scholar reveals to his colleagues he is an immortal who has walked the earth for 14,000 years."

Hope it's OK with you  :)

It is, but Pink Floyd was always more a visual spectacle then a true live act without the lights and such so on this DVD PF looks barely naked.
This makes it quite real but then in a surrealistic way.
