Mars! (Not the planet) (And not the BBC 'Life on Mars')
Ages ago I bought this Taiwanese soapy show called Mars. A touching story of boys, girls, racing, evil twins, dastardly stepfathers, etc., etc. because 
dangermousie was having such fun watching it. I also got Meteor Gardens (a similar story of love and angst); I actually watched that but somehow Mars got put on the DVD shelf and lost behind other things. But now
dangermousie is going to rewatch it and I will be doing so with her. I am ashamed to say how much I am looking forward to wallowing in unabashed angst for a while.
And this is a bit random but
sutekh had a bit on the viewership of Doctor Who during the Curse of Fenric which got a viewership of 4 million (eek!), with 57% of the audience over 35, and only 23% under 15. Curse of Fenric is for me perhaps the best McCoy I've seen, but it does have that distressing tendency to toss far too much on screen and let the viewer sort it out as best they can. I was happy that whoever directed it had Sophie Aldred not do as much of the shouting as she usually does.
