Sanctuary is totally a top priority.

I also need to watch Downton Abbey, Cougar Town, Game of Thrones and Luther from that list.

And like 4 billion other things. Seriously. My list of stuff I want to watch is so insanely long. I'd be able to get through it all faster if I had Netflix or something, but I do not, so it's all downloads for me.

Yeah, I've honestly been meaning to start it for like a month now, and still haven't. MAYBE I'LL WATCH THE PILOT TONIGHT.

Idk if I'll like Luther, tbh, because everyone says it's super dark, buuuut I figured I'll give it a try. We should totally coordinate when we're watching the shows, though, because yay someone to talk to!

And yeah, I've still a bunch of British 6-episode seasons I ~acquired last year that I thought I'd breeze right through and...haven't started. I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN HARDWARE, YET. I'M SORRY RC. ♥

And yeah I tropped netflix a few months back, so same boat here. Laaaaame.

Oh, these are just shows I haven't watched at all - I watch Merlin ♥ and 30 Rock and Sherlock. AND OHMAN I'M SO PSYCHED FOR ALCATRAZ. My love for Sam Neill knows no bounds at all.

I tried Bored to Death and wasn't keen on it, and honestly the premise of Boardwalk Empire doesn't interest me, just as I'm not planning on ever watching Breaking Bad.

Portlandia, though, I do actually have on my external and do plan to watch - I've got a few short shows like that that I forgot to list (such as Miranda), but yesss, thank you for reminding me!

I've seen a lot a lot of Midsomer Murders over the year, and I lovelovelove the show, so yesss I definitely plan to watch it all the way through at some point. Same with MacGyver, although obv very different shows, haha.

And I've seen maybe an episode or two of Spooks - I'm not usually keen on shows with high turnover rates w/in the cast, and I think that's one of them? Or am I mistaken on that? Maybe I should give it a chance, though - thank you for the rec! ♥

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS.

I have to see that guy in a non-awful role!

(Also I totally remember him in SGA as Teyla's friend, now. I don't remember if I said that.)

Considering my mom & I just quit Hell on Wheels because everyone is awful, perhaps I should give Mad Men a pass. Hrmmmmmmm. I was informed by Sin that I need to watch Generation Kill, lol. It's not at the top of my list, tbh - when I watch war things, I tend to prefer WWI/WWII/Revolutionary War stuff. Plus I prefer homefront things, anyway, by a long shot, soooo. Idk. She said it's only 7 episodes or so, so I'll probably give it a chance.

Yessssssss I've been meaning to watch Jeremy Brett!Sherlock for ~two years! \o/

I haven't seen The Wire, and I don't really have any inclination to do so? I tend to shy away from anything considered ~gritty, tbh. I don't do a whole lot of gritty. I hated Se7en. But idk, I don't know much about it, so.

oh hey btw Cougar Town was also in my to-see-eventually-but-no-big-rush list, and then I watched it, and it turns out everyone is right, and you should bump that up.

ALSO I seriously do want to watch the Jeremy Brett Sherlock, even though I've been lame and kind of failed at that the last month or so.

I need to go back and watch the first half of the first season of Cougar Town before season 3 starts in March. In fact, I'll probably start from the beginning and watch the whole series to current before the new season starts.

I've heard lots of good things about Empire Boardwalk, but I haven't gotten around to seeing any of it.

I've been meaning to watch it for so long, but I haven't, alas.

I've heard good things about it too, but I thought that it looked a little ~gritty for my taste? I tend not to like it when every character is super flawed/asshole-y, but I might just have the wrong opinion of the show, too - I don't think I know anyone who's actually seen it.
