How come Emmerdale has a sweet factory which has a packaging line and a distribution section but no visible production line? Maybe the sweets are made by Oompa loompas in an underground cavern somewhere....
Television Best and worst of Television!

How come you spend enough time watching Emmerdale to consider such problems?
Sometimes I get lonely......
Just rewatched Band of Brothers on Blu Ray. Such a well made show...
The last five minutes of that series are truly amazing. Throughout all the episodes you have a group of veterans talking about the war. At the end of the last episode they make an appearance again, except this time a name appears on the screen next to each man. You watch the series assuming they are random men talking about World War Two, but in reality these were the men in Easy company being portrayed on the show through the war, just a great moment.

Yeah, I agree, Band of Brothers was a really well made and well filmed series.
As was The Pacific, same genre. Excellent execution.
But surely all TV is shit????
Except for motor sport of course.....

Just got around to watching the Easter special of Jonathon Creek. What an absolute load of bollocks! Please, someone who watched it, explain why it wasn't a pile of poorly scripted bunkum that made no sense at all. The plot, what there was of it, was just so thin and was obviously written around a single concept of how a body could completely vanish in a locked room. Two hours of my life that I will never get back.
I have finally got around to taking the advice of a friend and watched a few episodes of "the big bang theory". Funniest thing i've watched in years. Now own seasons 1-5 on dvd.
Also, Fridays are now great again with the return of Not Going Out and H.I.G.N.F.Y.

Best of TV
In the 90's it was the X files until they ran out of episodes
--------------------------------------------------------
24 when it first came on TV was brilliant until Sky bought the rights..you're wasting your time watching it on SKY because of the ad breaks ..its much more intense to watch non stop on DVD - the greatest TV show ever
Terminator the Sarah Connor Chronicles was good but the TV station pulled it off when they did not give it a fair chance
Family Guy is brilliant for late night laughter

Friends when it initially came out was great laughter for Fridays until they all wised up about having air time share...they've could have cancelled the show because they all demanded equal pay
Big Bang Theory is amusing when I get a chance to see it
Anyone into Frasier ?? back then
--------------------------------------
The revamped Buffy THe Vampire slayer series from the disastrous film version is the standard set about fighting monsters and demons
I was a Supernatural fan back then

Watched both and thought they were disappointing - not up to past standards.
cider_and_toast I quit enjoyed Jonathon Creek. I find that my enjoyment of a program is related to my expectations, sometimes something really piss poor can be really enjoyable, providing your expectations are set accordingly.
I am getting in to Revolution at the moment, that almost guarantees that it will be dropped after 1 series, as everything I get in to seems to be (V, Terra Nova, although Falling skies is doing OK!!)

Yeah V and Terra Nova, and TN was just getting interesting...!
I find things like Jonathon Creek and House which follow a set format I.E Impossible case/mystery going nowhere for 40 minuets or so then a breakthrough by the the protagonist and hey presto what do you know problem solved NEXT.
It's great to begin with and then it just becomes same ol' same ol'....
Boring.....
House isn't too bad (Just about bearable.) because his character does develop a bit, but Creek! is he still living in that bloody windmill?

That's because you will never find out how the bloke met the kids mother.....
Just like you will never find out what the fuck "Lost." was all about....

Aye. Just a reason to prolong the show and to shit it up.
Never got into Lost, thank fuck, the people i know that watched it lost the plot along with the producers.
