WHOA to that second picture. That woke me up!
ReplyDeletehe is such a naughty devil, he is....
DeleteA different type of Beowulf, sounds good!
ReplyDeleteShould be super fun, has a great cast! Half of which tweeted us so far :)
DeleteBeowulf-whistle!
ReplyDeleteindeed :)
DeleteI hung in there as long as I could on Poldark, but I got bored pretty quickly with the story and characters. Not even those good looks of his were enough to keep me watching. But, hmmm, may have to check out this new Beowulf show. :))
ReplyDeleteNooooo! I rather loved the series, especially the actors.. and how it was kinda old fashioned without brutality and such nonsense. But I did watch all 8 episodes in week and a half, one each evening.
DeleteI reckon you will find INDIAN SUMMERS boring too. But I liked them as well. Not as much as BANISHED though, that is my fave show of the year
It's true, I do better with a series if I can watch the whole thing back to back. Waiting a week to find out what happens next doesn't always work for me anymore. Damn digital age! Maybe when it's released on Netflix, I'll try and catch the episodes I missed.
Deleteit kinda ends with a cliff hanger... I watch all my British shows back to back usually over summer.
DeleteHoly Christ, just look at that man! That's one show Annzie won't be missing.
ReplyDeleteI'm having the bestest birthday ever. Your package arrived in the post today! Look at how everything is lined up. Your package came, it's my birthday and you're introducing the second season of Poldark. Now that is synchronicity.
I'm going to start with Crimson Fields tonight. I'll be out of town tomorrow and will stop in when I return.
Me lurvs you darling xoxoxoxo
What he shows or the show itself? :)
DeleteOoh, glad to hear it, hope everything works! Be sure to let me know how you liked CRIMSON FIELD! Hope you got my e-mail too and the comment at your blog
The CW always rocks the super hero shows. I still love Smallville. I can't wait for legends of tomorrow!!
ReplyDeleteyes, lately, it seems they have nothing else there but superhero shows which all look like one show :) But at least they always have a cute cast
DeleteI was worried I would grow bored with Poldark also. I will wait for it to hit Netflix, then will watch back to back. Like LG, I just hate waiting a whole week for a new episode to start. I think Netflix has the right idea introducing a whole series at a time. Keeps me interested longer.
ReplyDeletethat is how I watch all my British shows. I follow US ones an episode a week as they roll over the season, but usually keep the British ones for watching over the week, an episode a night. It usually takes a bit longer for them to appear at Torrents.
DeleteI didn't find POLDARK boring at all because it was so visually beautiful and had the right relaxing atmosphere... and plus the actors are really genuine
Dar-link, I don't know how epic 'BEOWULF' will be, but the photo will outlast it all!!! Thank you heaps!!
ReplyDeleteit sure will, sure will!
DeleteThe hawk heroes look rather stupid
ReplyDeleteyes, especially the head masks... so ridiculous and over sized.....
DeleteI'm blind! My eyes!!!!
ReplyDeleteppfftt I'm sure you see such a pic every time you look in the mirror.... nothing new to see :)
DeleteFunny.
Deleteme or what you see in the mirror? :PPPP
DeleteBoth. On a good day. Plus Hawkman looks ridiculous.
Deletelike totally, imagine having to go out with that ridiculous thing on your head?
