So were almost out of the mid season doldrums. What have everyone been watching?
Any winners for the fall seasons?
Shows you think need to go?
Any replacements you are looking forward to?

I think I just had a realization I need to cancel my cable service because the only shows I can think of that I even care about anymore are all on PBS and major networks I can either stream or get on Netflix/Hulu. :blush:
Downton Abbey
Grantchester
Agent Carter
The Black List (I need to catch up!)
SVU
Game of Thrones (coming back in April!)
Mr. Selfridge
Call the Midwife
Orange is the New Black
I just started The Fall with Gillian Anderson on Netflix. It is a BBC crime drama with the first 2 seasons available.
The Blacklist, Downton, Call the Midwife, Madam Secretary, Reign, and most importantly.....
Waiting patiently for GoT and OITNB

I've been missing The Blacklist. I love James Spader in it so much that no matter how absurd or how much they string me along, I will still watch.
I've been enjoying Downton this season but I am getting tired of the Bates story line and poor Edith. Should I start a new Downton thread?
I'm probably the last person in the US who hasn't seen Game of Thrones or Orange is the New Black. I really need to catch them sometime.
OOOOOO yes please start a Downton Season 5 discussion, Cindy! Thanks!
I was watching GOT on my computer and my husband walked in - thought I was watching porn LOL
This past summer I rec'd the DVD's from Netflix and had him sit and watch the first 2. Needless to say, he is hooked as well and waiting for the next season!

:funny: I had a similar moment watching When Harry Met Sally. Mom thought the scene in the diner was something else!
I've read the books in the Song of Ice and Fire series, and while I really like the GoT show, they really exaggerate most of the violence and racy scenes.
Mike & Molly, NCIS NO, Big Bang Theory. Have to choose between Keith Urban on Idol or the Mentalist. :drama:
I started thinking of my list of what I'm watching and I basically need to get a life other than in front of the TV. :blush:
Currently I'm watching;
American Idol for the audition part, last year I gave up before the finals
Project Runway All Stars
Real Housewives from anywhere
All NCISs
Criminal Minds
The final Mentalists
From DVDs and streaming;
we just finished The Bomb Girls and Blue Murders
now on to Last Tango In Halifax and The Killing
Looking forward to starting soon;
House of Cards
Amazing Race
Suvivor
I'm really not watching much of anything right now. Downton Abbey, Big Bang Theory, Mike and Molly, House Hunters/House Hunters International/Tiny House Hunters 60 Minutes and General Hospital episodes that I record during the day. Looking forward to the new season of The Amazing Race in February. In March I will be watching Once Upon a Time, Call the Midwife and am interested in that new show, Dig. In April it will be Outlander (yay!) and the 1/2 season of Mad Men (boo!)
Really, that's it right now. There are shows that I would like to get into, like The Good Wife and The Walking Dead, but I know I really need to start back at the beginning and I just don't have time for that right now. But maybe in a month or two I will try.
I just binge watched True Detective and now I've started The Affair. True Detective was great. The Affair, I like it so far, but I just think the main guy should pay more attention to his family and less to the woman who intrigues him (not his wife). His teenage daughter is a spoiled brat and I want to make someone pay attention to her in time to change her ways. To his credit, his wife seems fairly out of it, too. But that girl is distracting me from... The Affair.
Put this in the wacka-doodle column for me. I can not make myself watch The Affair. I can not stand the actress who played Alice on Luther. I have seen her in other roles, the mother in Saving Mr. Banks for one. Still don't like her.
Watched season 1 of both Salem and Z Nation on Netflix.
Just started watching Helix.
Waiting for the second half of season 5 for Walking Dead to come back on AMC.
And waiting for the final season of Sons of Anarchy to come to Netflix.
For me it is walking dead,orange is the new black,law & order svu,modern family,and criminal minds. My to start watching list is : shameless,game of thrones, house of cards, and parenthood.
It's hard to keep up on shows with a newborn! My husband and I watch a lot of shows together, so finding the time has been difficult. We are caught up on Grimm and Gotham, two episodes behind on Agent Carter, and all but given up on Sleepy Hollow :(
We LOVED Sleepy Hollow for the longest time, but I think it took a turn for the worse when they changed writers and changed the whole direction of the show.
One new show we've managed to catch is 12 Monkeys on SyFy. We like it, although I admit with tending to the baby sometimes while watching TV, it's a little more difficult to follow.
We are looking forward to the return of The Walking Dead and House of Cards as well. Oh and Game of Thrones! (Wow we watch a lot of TV).
On my own, I've discovered Gilmore Girls on Netflix and I'm hooked! I'm already halfway through season 5 and had to stop binging when I'm home alone with the baby because I don't want to run out of episodes. :blush:
The Walking Dead is all I watch so I'm excited for that to come back. I get all kinds of weird looks when people hear that's literally the only thing my TV gets turned on for all week but I already work on a computer all day in my career so the idea of spending more hours staring at a screen in the evening doesn't appeal to me.
