There have been two shows eating my brains this week. First off, I fell deepy and madly in love with Steven MOffat and Mark Gatiss' Sherlock. It was a dream of a tv show, good pace great action, much banter and totally enjoyable.
I don't like spoilers so I won't ruin things if you've not yet seen it but golly gosh, I was seriously excited and was thoroughly pleased with how things turned out. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman rocked my world with chemistry and good humour.
One tiny tiny whingette was that sometime's Sherlock was speaking so quickly I couldn't always catch all the dialogue. But I did like the way texts and thinking were displayed on the screen.
My other joy has been Breaking Bad. My chap and I are six episodes deep into the second season. I am amazed at the starkness of the show. It seems to waver on a very thin line between being too bleak and very very funny. I'm laughing at things that on paper sound impossible to laugh at. It also highlights some interesting issues. I don't doubt that this show isn't for everyone, I wouldn't recommend it to my mother. It's challenging but ultimately rewarding.
Keep Buggering on.
