Making my way through ESPN 30 for 30 at the mo,

So far I've seen Terry Fox, The U, Marion Jones, July 17th 94, Boston Redsox world series win. Brilliant Stuff.

Going to throw on the Two Escobars this morning, 2 hrs long supposedly!

They are as good as you will see when it comes to documentaries, sports or otherwise. They are just starting another series of them in the US. The Two Escobars is one of the best.
Ya, brilliant stuff. The Two Escobars was enthralling stuff. Can't believe I'm only getting through the series now.

The first ep of season 3 is a gore fest anyways! Some about of Zombie head bursting in it!

Watched it last night! Deadly show. Total gore fest and a good storyline.

Just watched episode 4 of season 3.
The best episode yet of any of the seasons IMO.
Don't want to give anything away but I was absolutely speechless at the end,couldn't believe the ending of the episode.
Brilliant TV but also quite harrowing.

Reminds me (at least in terms of general tropes) of Journeyman.  Kevin McKidd as a San Francisco reporter who's involuntarily traveling through time. It's basically a more serious Quantum Leap. It only lasted one series and I enjoyed what I saw of it, I really should go back and watch it end-to-end.

And to be perfectly honest Continuum reminds me most of Power Rangers Time Force. There, I said it.  :-X

I liked Journeyman, another one of the shows I watched that was cancelled.  Since that show ended, Flash Forward, Alcatraz and The Event have all got the boot.

Jeesus by the sounds of youse you would swear this episode is going to be unreal, am I being set up for a let down.  Usually wait to Friday night but would be tempted to watch it online tonight to see what the fuss is about.

Can't see how you will be let down. Unbelievable Jeff...

Bingo

I'm excited by the thoughts of it! Might even try to go online and watch it tonight rather than wait till Friday as usual.

It and Homelands this evening are great to watch.

Like ballinaman said I dunno how anyone could be disappointed with the episode especially the last ten minutes, you'd be a very hard man to please if you are let down.

The best show on TV isn't actually shown on UK TV for some baffling reason.  It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, currently on Series 8 (FX) in the US, I watch it on www.tv-links.eu  My favourite show over the past few years.

Ridiculous but hilarious, defiantly not everyone type of humour. Making my way through season 5 when I've a spare 20mins to throw an episode on.
