Breaking Bad spinoff, Better Call Saul, has started with two excellent episodes. Looks very promising.

[The Ash Man]

Going against my better judgement, I recorded Gogglebox last night to see what all the hype was about.
It lasted 48secs before it got deleted.
Absolute tripe (which I was expecting)

[Footy Chick]

Did anyone happen to catch "How to get away with Murder" on Tuesday night? and is it any good?

I missed it

Gallipoli didn't have me on the edge of my seat, despite my high interest in the topic.
The opening scene in the boat was excellent and, as usual, I found myself getting angry at the loss of life - it happens whenever I watch/read anything on the subject.

How many eps is it?

You know you're getting old when the gorgeous Justine Clarke is playing mother to teenagers.

I thought Gary Jubilan was good as the lieutenant who kept running messages. He gave a good perspective on the desperation and frenetic movement that occurred on that day.

The guy playing Attaturk was also good. Gave that amazing sense of power that made the Father of the Turks such a leader of men.

The thing that crossed my mind whilst watching it was that our nation is commemorating the Gallipoli landings with a multitude of TV dramas and I wondered what the Turkish tv programs on the subject would be like.

Watched the whole series on www.stan.com.au this weekend. Thought it was brilliantly done.

very surprised that channel 9 would let stan show the whole series. Surely that would hurt ratings.

might hurt the ratings on 9, but perhaps the subscribers to Stan help to offset that

Im currently reading Gallipoli only 1/4 of the way through, and watched the first 10 mins of ep 1 and turned it off. I cant get over the fact they recycle Australian actors so much it just didnt seem right. I didnt want their faces in my head while reading/picturing what is written.

Not a bad show but when I got smacked in the face with the gay sex scene I was a little put off.
Should be a warning before I cop an eyeful of man love on my TV.

Why? Do you want a warning when there's hetero love on the tv too?

I think by "I was a little put off", he means "I got the weirdest boner".

Finished season one and started season two of Boardwalk Empire. It's okay, I fell asleep during a couple of episodes because the dialogue bores me a bit, but the missus loves it so I guess it's here to stay.

No. I just don't enjoy seeing two guys going at it. Nor did I expect to see two guys going at it.
