  1. Grimm is now showing on COMET TV starting with S1 Ep 1. I so miss this show, even with all the Black Claw, & BT/Juliette storylines from S2 on etc. - she should’ve been a recurring character after S1.
  2. This French mystery crime show just started showing at our local PBS. Astrid, an autistic woman who works in the library of the judicial police has an incredible memory, & assists the local police force in analyzing the files for ongoing investigations. She & the female commander, Raphaëlle have a special camaraderie that is quite wonderful (although the coroner, Fournier is my fave). A fascinating & very well done show - thankful for the subtitles. Apparently in its 4th season as it is quite popular.
  3. LOL … (so glad VB has S3) And I just finished my re-watch of the last Foyle’s War, Elise & both Tim McMullan & Conleth Hill show up together! Pretty much anything Anthony Horowitz does is worthwhile, so it was good to catch an interview with him at the end of 1st episode. Will continue to watch as it is refreshingly different (even if idea/versions have been done in the past, ie, protagonist in fictional storylines). The show so far is astute, brisk & delightful in the way it bridges the two eras - and the enjoyable acting by its wonderful cast.
  4. I like Floor, as she presents as more amiable, but have gotten use to Sarah - snark, voice & all! This episode was filmed @ August, & Sarah has since given birth to her baby girl. (Re: Sarah's absence, I just caught up with her IG, as I adore her dog Baron, but she has had a terribly sad summer with the passing of her beloved father. She went home to Ohio for several weeks during this difficult pandemic & pregnancy, to try to be with her father...)
  5. Watching DiP on Ovation this morning & had forgotten Ralf Little was a guest, Season 2, ep 6! I don't mind DI Parker, as his various peculiarities & eccentricities are more akin to our 2nd DI, Poole. I also disliked Camille at 1st for the same reason, but learnt to like all the main characters after a while. They are warm & funny. Although I'm a big fan of the dark, pessimistic tone of Nordic noir shows, I so appreciate shows like this - a light, breezy detective mystery set in the Caribbean that doesn't take itself too seriously.
  6. I believe he is from Bad Wiessee, so yes. He has an interesting background & turned his life around 10 years ago (good for him).
  7. Although I do miss the simplicity & straight-forwardness of the excellent Foyle's War. As a fan of the universe that is all things Morse (been a fan of Thaw since his gritty Sweeney years), I'm glad to still have Endeavour around, even though the wonderful Deguello would have finished the series very nicely. Looking forward to Season 8! And Rupert Graves - who can forget his frolic in Room with a View 😄
  8. Glad to see the senior vets showing their support for Hannah.
  9. Yes, it was baffling, engaging & very well done. I too had to search thru the net to better understand the ending. It delivers a powerful social message about humanity & moral fragility. Would strongly recommend, & the viewer to come up with your own theories about the ending.
  10. https://tellyvisions.org/2020/07/06/period-mystery-vienna-blood-renewed-season-2?fbclid=IwAR1CsqXDdPrtnsQ-Uz3xPWMV4r-Okt46CIG3NFqzGuGBNquXqK74U1EtG4U Season 2 Confirmed!
  11. Finally watched Tower of Lost Souls (S8, Ep 10) & now one of my favorite episodes. Enjoyed seeing the return of CI Valentine & CI Sullivan (same with any Sid & Lady Felicia eps). Their various interactions & reactions with/to Mallory were priceless, as is their deference to FB during the investigation. The scene at the end between Valentine & FB was perfect.
  12. So miss Keen Eddie! Such a great show that should’ve lasted more than one season - damn you Fox 😠
  13. Haha .... NO! That's one of the things that made the FoL:DU cringe worthy. It was the over emphasis of the Aussie slang. Of course, they were capitalizing on everything Australian at that time with the increased popularity of Crocodile Dundee, Men at Work/INXS, Olivia NJ, tourism, etc - so the show went out of its way to teach the rest of the world what the locals may say. However, I still enjoy watching the Down Under movie if only it brings back memories of my time there, & Sydney specifically.
  14. Like this show, along with Modus & other Nordic noir crime dramas. I have seen Baptiste S1 in full, & many twists as expected when it's full of swarmy characters. Looking forward to Baptiste S2 whenever production gets completed, especially with the wonderful Fiona Shaw joining (& get to listen to Baptiste speak English in that lovely French accent).
  15. This will be interesting. Starts in June. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.today.com/today/amp/tdna180355
