This could be a busy thread for the next couple of weeks as some big shows return.

It's not exactly a big show but The Mentalist returns to 5ive at 9 on Friday.

True Blood - Series 2 - FX HD - Friday 26th Feb - 10pm

Straight after Lost, so great stuff for those who don't do Fridays in the pub....

(Still nothing on the FX website about Dexter Series 4

)

Bump...

I'm confused. I recorded the last episode (the first one) but it wouldn't let me series link it so I set a reminder for this week. Now looking at tvguide.co.uk it's episode 1 that was just on.

Was it also on last week?

Was supposed to be first episode debuting tonight (hope so - that is all I've taped)

assume you mean True Blood

DrBunker · **Posted:** 26 Feb 2010, 22:56

Yes. I think I must have recorded a catch-up episode from last season...oh well, there are plenty of replays this week.

Razorback · **Posted:** 26 Feb 2010, 22:57

Just checked the 'True Blood: Season 2' episode guide & tonight's is definitely the first one

A few Sky 1 programmes which have had a mid series break are returning this week:

House tonight 10pm

Fringe Tuesday 10pm although there was a new one shown last week it must have been one they had missed out as it contained somebody who died in an earlier episode.

Bones & Cold Case both return on Thursday night 10 & 11 pm.

Suddenly I'm going to have to keep an eye on how much recording space I have left on my hard drive :lol:

Doctor Who is back at Easter apparently, thats just 4 weeks for everybody to write off the new bloke without giving him a chance.

He'll be crap.

Tell me about it. I'm busy catching up on films I recorded years ago whilst my wife prepares for some exams just to make room for all of the returning series!

About effin time. It's been a 3 month gap and I've almost forgotten the first 10 or so that were broadcast. Any clues on why Sky have started doing this?

DrBunker · **Posted:** 08 Mar 2010, 08:06

It confused the hell out of me when checking tvguide.co.uk for an alternative time to record this new "series". I don't remember it ending half way through. Are the breaks enforced by the US? They tend to pause shows mid-season for various reasons (Superbowl, Thanksgiving, national holidays, etc.) and we wouldn't be allowed to show episodes before them.

It's not as bad as Bones though; they stick the episodes on in the wrong order so dead/left/new characters just appear all over the place. Luckily it's not the sort of show that has a particularly important time-line.

Darbyand · **Posted:** 09 Mar 2010, 17:24

House had a 6 week gap in the US between Nov 30 and Jan 11, then another month's gap in Feb. They've just shown episode 15 over there and 11 over here so that would be about right, Sky had one big gap rather than 2 separate ones.

Still annoying. I preferred it when they delayed the start and just showed it week after week.

The final series (or is it just an episode) of Ashes to Ashes. Good Friday BBC1 9pm.

Wahhooooooooooo!!!

Totally excellent !!!!!!!!!!!

DrBunker · **Posted:** 22 Mar 2010, 22:16

Didn't this start yesterday? I had a reminder pop up to record it but forgot and planned to watch it on catch-up.

Shaggy365 · **Posted:** 22 Mar 2010, 22:27

There must be something wrong with your pop-ups :

BBC link

Wiki link

... and having just seen the trailer, there was a photo of Sam Tyler !!!

Could it be that he's going to make a return?

Am now getting seriously excited. (but don't tell Mrs S)

DrBunker · **Posted:** 23 Mar 2010, 09:20

Phew, I'll change the reminder!

Just flash Forward to catch up on now.

I saw the trailer again last night and I realised that I'm really looking forward to it too. I think my kids might be too hopefully!

DrBunker · **Posted:** 08 Apr 2010, 20:21

A bit late but the new series of Outnumbered (the best comedy in the world for 30ish middle class parents

) starts at 9.30 on BBC1.

Just watched it. The kids seemed a lot more scripted than in previous series. Now Karen is coming across as a smart-arse precocious brat, rather than an innocent who hits the nail on the head while the grown-ups are flustering about. Still a couple of laugh out loud moments though.

Always has to me on the rare occassions I have failed to turn over quick enough. Very annoying and not at all funny IMO.

The Apprentice - or rather Junior Apprentice BBC1 Weds 9pm

Couple of things that might be worth a look tonight

9pm BBC2 - Grumpy guide to the 80's
10pm Ch4 - Derren Brown Investigates.... Psychics

bloggie · **Posted:** 11 May 2010, 00:02

Watched both of those before reading what you said there. The filofax seems even more quaint and outdated in retrospect and Gold Blend adverts. If Clegg does a deal with the Tories then no doubt there will be similar symbols. At least there was Manchester music somewhat ironically. I even had one of these that I put a proper keyboard on eventually then replaced it with the ST version.

Quid pro quo there murf. Virgin were showing it on tv on demand but it's disappeared now. Over to FX I go...
