Had finished the original series a week ago, now just finished the remake; lovely.

In case anybody needs "a hint" where to get those vids, PM me.

Seaside Hotel, (a Danish series), dubbed in German. I'm happily hangin' in there w/o subtitles (not available at ARD). It's entertaining historical fiction with the parallel stories of the upper and lower classes playing out side by side. I'm hooked! It's out there in English too.

Not watching much UK stuff. VPN which is working for all my family is not working for me. I am using a different browser, just for UK stuff, so I can delete cookies etc. It is so random, as in it has not worked for 2 weeks, then suddenly last night all was dandy. Bummer.

I’m currently warching the series „München Mord“ (ZDF) on our new 48“ TV (which i love 😃). A friend turned me onto it and I’m hooked. Learning plenty of Bayerisch too. The acting, including from the recently deceased Alexander Held, is quite good IMO.

We are watching "The Big C". It's pretty good. We had been watching "House", then it jumped the shark, and I had to bail. I am also catching up on the new "Futurama" and as much "The Great North" and "Bob's Burgers" as I can without irritating my wife.

The West Wing, I’ve always wanted to watch this and now it’s streaming on Amazon or HBO. Yes, Bartlet’s administration is Democrat and it’s 20 years old, but there are similarities to today and I’m really enjoying watching how it all works and matching up the characters to the people in power today.

I’d avoided Tbe Big C for a while though did watch it recently. Funny, thought provoking and sad. I like House, especially his eccentricity. I don’t know what jumped the shark means 😊. Some later seasons just got weird and boring.

"Jumped the shark" is an idiom used to describe the exact moment a creative work, brand, or entity begins a noticeable decline in quality, abandoning its core appeal for far-fetched, over-the-top gimmicks to stay relevant.

I find it funny that it was from "Happy Days". I remember that one, it had gone to pot by then. I loved the early ones mid? 70s. Even my dad did, though he loathed most tv, especiallly daytime stuff. But he laughed at this when I watched Saturdays late morning. Happy days.
