THE COUCH - TV Chat Thread

I just read that red dwarf has been renewed for a thirteenth season. Filming will start later this year.

...say what?... wooooooohoooooooo!.... you have made my year Isee!... Danny John-Jules has just recently quit his role in 'Death in Paradise' so that does make sense... thanks so much for telling me that... I've only just finished watching an episode of Red Dwarf not even 20 minutes ago lol!... woooooooohooooooo!... I love it!... cheers.

Thought you would be as happy as I am!
 
No I haven't read this, I can't stand Dan Brown books in general......he copied better authors concepts and blew them up into pulp fiction.

Is it real? Or more fiction?
More fiction. I completely understand your Dan Brown opinion lol and share it, the book was given to me and its the only one of his Ive ever been able to finish.
 
And a couple of upcoming series, season 2 of the entertaining but complex HBO Westworld debuting April 21


And a less campy, more dramatic remake of an old series Lost in Space on Netflix April 12

Despite being a ‘family’ show, I mostly enjoyed the new Lost in Space, but I guess I’m a bit sentimental having loved the original. Quite like Parker Posey as the new Dr Smith, and the new robot is good too. But I’m still hanging out for her to call him a ‘bubble headed booby’. :D Still a lot of plot is driven by poor communication, typical of a lot of US shows.

Fun trivia, the Z. Smith who died at the start was played by the original Will Robinson, Billy Mumy.

Now I’m hoping Westworld season 2 can live up to season 1. I find as the show goes on, I’m interested less in Dolores - and more in Maeve.
 
Kelly Rowland is coming across too strongly on The Voice. Nothing wrong with a bit of attitude but she's shouting people down, especially Boy George.
 
Watching this, and it is really good......fascinating in fact, taking notes as he has amazing secret sources for all these cuisines...many in Melbourne......wow, now I know where I can see Swedes and their lolly shop in a church, apparently Swedish love lollies.
