Bake Off - I wasn't sure what it would be like on C4, especially with such odd choices for hosts, but it hasn't lost its magic.

C4 News - still gets to the heart of the stories in a way that treats you like adults, rather than the way the BBC and ITV talk down to you.

Home and Away - not watched it in months and got a bit samey. It seemed to have less attractive people in it by the time I stopped watching, which might have had an impact in my decisions (apart from Kat, the police officer, who is sensational).

The man in the high castle and exorcist season 1, season 2 is out later this month

Looking forward to Narcos 3 coming out. Not sure it will be as good without Pablo but the trailer looks pretty good. 1 & 2 were top notch for me

Nashville.

Preacher, Animal Kingdom, American Gods all enjoyable IMO.

Also should have added I just don't get the GOT hype.

Think it's pretty chit to be honest

Nearly forgot:

Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls - generally the celebrity version is utter pash compared to the real version, and celebrity is always a stretch, but two episodes in and I've enjoyed it. Iwan Thomas has come across as a complete bell in it, while Lucy Meeklenburg (sp?) is about to start pumping a boy that used to be on Corrie. Unless they all starve to death, which would be nice.

Ray Donovan is brilliant. The name put me off as I thought it was a cop show. But it's not.

I enjoyed the first season of The Man in The High Castle


Ath - I didn't get into American Gods at all. Gave up on it after a couple of episodes.

Ivan

I do enjoy Bake Off. Bear Grylls the Island is a good laugh as well as you just shout at the TV all the time

I haven't gone back to Narcos after season 1

I didn't know Home and Away or Neighbours were still running

If I'm at home around 8pm then it is always on. Definitely one of my 'guilty pleasures'. New series on soon where they go abroad too.

I quite like Iwan Thomas on it along with the pu$$ycat doll (seriously admin it is a band) they are the only two who want to get stuff done now that DJ has gone.

I agree on the celebrity one though - they are proper divas. At least on the normal version they just get stuck in and after arguing some do the fire, some water and some food

The celebrities think only one thing needs to be done at a time and someone else will do it

Ray Donovan's worth sticking with, becomes a very good series.

I've got the book for American God but haven't started it yet. Haven't watched the programme at all.

I wasn't sure if Man In The High castle would be good. Storyline seems a bit similar to Fatherland by Robert Harris (unless it is based on it?)

Thomas has been a disaster though - everything he wants to do is wrong

He's one of those typical Alpha Males who acts first and thinks second. He's went in there with an idea of who he should be rather than who he is. Not building a fire and instead trying to build shelter with infested wood was ridiculous. Think he's just came across as a pwick to be honest, which is a shame because I thought he was alright.

Just finished Ozark and GOT.

Currently watching Ray Donovan and the new AHS starts tonight!

Watched the first ep of 'Tin Star' last night, was quite good!

Still to watch Narcos season 2, I thought the first season was a bit boring tbh.

Get Gomorrah watched if you haven't already!
