I'm behind by at least a season, but hey, this is me so what else is new? ;)
My husband and I recently watched Wallander (with Kenneth Branagh), Cracker (with Robbie Coltrane) and got caught up on Season 4 of Downton Abbey. I've got Season 5 on hold at the library and can't wait (Even though...uh... I have to! Ha!)
We'll be catching up the most recent season re: Game of Thrones soon but I have to admit I'm pretty darn nervous about that one! I've heard the rumbling and grumblings and I know it's going to be super dark so I'm trying to prepare myself for what's to come...
Same to you, Oak and Dee! *grin*
Hi everyone!My dear Renee,how was season 3 and 4 overall of Downton Abbey?!?I really need to caught up too but I have some doubts!

I really enjoyed them, Savvina. I'm fascinated by all the character dynamics, the consequences of people's actions, all the stories that so often interconnect in fascinating ways.
There have been some unexpected surprises, even some dark and difficult things that I know caused some controversy -- but that's also part of what makes it so compelling for me. This whole upstairs/downstairs aspect and how different people's lives and experiences are...
Where are you doubts coming from? Did your feelings change while you were watching the show? Did you hear some things that bothered you or you weren't sure about?
I read online recently that some people felt the show wasn't as good as it was in the beginning. I find this is a common complaint when it comes to most shows and people are entitled to their opinions, of course, and have their reasons for them.
That being said, I am still intrigued by it and looking forward to more! :)
Glad to hear it's even better! :)It's definitely one of my favourite series and exactly because of that upstairs/downstairs vibe!
The thing is when I tried to caught up it was during school so naturally I preferred to take nap than watch it because I was exhausted all the time.Anyway my new series obsession (THE MUSKETEERS [BBC]) second season is quickly ending (well,it's already done,I am slowly catching up) so I need a new show!Downton Abbey is next now ;)
Well the doubts came from the fans,saying that the following seasons aren't that good!
Thank you by the way,you really got me excited now ;)

Hmmm. Well, it's all subjective, isn't it?
I mean you may find you really like them once you start watching them again or you may find yourself agreeing with some of the fans that it's not as good as it used to be.
I wouldn't say it's better than when it first began. I'd say that it's still quite good and I'm still interested because I personally love more character driven shows. You'll only know for sure what you think once you begin the journey for yourself. I hope you'll really enjoy it and that I'm not leading you astray here! *grin*
I love BBC TV - I haven't watched The Musketeers but I'm going to see if they have it in at the library so I can check it out!
Have you ever watched Luther or Sherlock? Some brilliant stuff there too...
Yes it is subjective!I really can't wait to start!
BBC never disappoints me!
Sherlock??INFINITE LOVE!
Luther??GOD!GENIUS!
The Musketeers??I am just going to say ARAMIS!

*LMBO!*
I see you're a total fan of some of my faves!
Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman are amazing as Sherlock and Dr. Watson and I just love watching them in action! (Check out the newest pic re: Season 4!)
*
Luther - oh Luther! So brilliant, wounded and intriguing. Just incredible stuff.
And his dynamics with the ever so dangerous Alice? Fascinating...
*
As for Aramis? Very nice...
Definitely must look into this further! *grin*
Alice..LOVE her!And I totally agree with the fascination and the action of Sherlock and more specific of the pair Benedict&Martin <3
Oh,and just look at ARAMIS!

Oh, I'm looking! *LOL*
I've just learned from a quick Google search that the character's name is René de Herblay aka Aramis (played by Santiago Cabrera).
He's got a cool name if I do say so myself! Ha ha! ;)
I like Santiago, too!
Welcome to my cult,the appreciation of Aramis cult! ;)

It would be great if you could 'like' or leave a comment below the link above so Q gets some visibility on the GR feeds.
...and we'll be doing the same for a few others of you here once you get your stories in :)
Have a great weekend!
Oh thanks Oak! I hope anyone that checks that out enjoys it!
Mod
Hmmm...Can't believe I'm the first one here. It's kinda creepy, actually.
*runs off scared*
Morrrning *echo*Heeey!! Wake up!! Where is everyone!?
*grins and waves from the balcony, deliberately leaning back while basking in the sun
You better step away from the balcony. You might have an....accident. *evil smiles*
Where you been Kat!? I have missed you
Mod
LOL! I've missed you too Shari!
*tip toes slowly toward H.A. with hands outstretched*
*clutches the rail under knuckles are white and starts to tremble
Things sure have gotten homicidal around here lately...I hope everyone's having a great Saturday!
*smiles sweetly* Nothing homicidal here. I was just explaining to H.A. that the balcony might not be a safe place.How is your Saturday!?
Anybody else waiting on the juicy tidbits from Comic Con. I watched Conan last night and he was there for it, interviewed the cast of Walking Dead and Game of Thorns.
Mine is nice so far. Glad to see you are showing concern Shari about the balcony and all O.o
Mod
:) Other than that my Sat has consisted of work...and now being with my puppies enjoying the outside.
Awesome Sarah, just keep those dogs off the roof!
