Think come dancing brings us nearer to divorce than anything. That and Wimbledon.

I couldn't get into Breaking Bad. Dexter on the other hand is excellent, although the new series has started quite slowly. I've started watching Boardwalk Empire which is ok but hasn't really blown me away yet.

Boardwalk Empire is a tad slow going, will give it a few more episodes before giving up on it.

My OH and I have an arrangement that when she's watching Eastenders, X-Factor, Strictly or any other such tulip then I go and game on my PC, or similar and she doesnt expect me to keep her company.

Once a week she catches up on E/Enders and that lasts a couple of hours.

I love X-Factor etc because I can then do something else that I fancy doing.

Caprica is just BSG dressed up as dynasty, don't waste your time....

Try Fringe and Supernatural, also V the remake is good if you like camp sci-fi, if you want gritty try breaking bad, it's a very refreshing drama.

I was watching Breaking bad, new season has not started yet. I was watching V, must look for some new one. I will give Fringe and Supernatural a go thanks!

Still waiting for Eat Pray Love to appear, currently there is only a Russian version uploaded.

Have you seen the guy in Rubicon

For balance.

Caprica is 'fraking' good IMO.

...and while this was on....we were playing live Rockabilly in the local pub.

We´ve added some 60´s guitar instrumentals to the setlist, they just loved Wipeout.

They were dancing to this one.

..and we get paid plus free beer and food

Rock on

Pipeline is my favourite... YouTube - The Ventures -- Pipeline

I'm downloading two new SyFy shows "The Event" and "Caprica"
Also looking at Outsourced and Rubicon

Most of the chat shows were on the tv on a Saturday, there's always been some sort of z list nonsense on ITV, but this dancing sh1te???

Just show how oblivious I am to it all when someone at work said "I can't wait for strictly to start" and I had to ask them what they were talking about???

I remember come dancing with Angela Rippon, dear god, I am getting old.

These days I dread trips to the hairdressers or beauticians and the strike up a conversation which seems to consist of asking me about x factor and random reality tv stars and I'm absolutely clueless as to what they are talking about. And there's always the old copies copies of hello, goodbye and good afternoon in the waiting area, which means I can flick through and try and guess who half the people featured in are.

I'll stick to downloads of American TV, the news and my dvds ta!

Oh God I'm the same

Wasn't Parkinson on Saturday nights at one point? Sufficiently late to go to the pub first of course.

Otherwise you were lucky if you got a decent film. I think Saturday night telly took a major downturn in the 1980s; at one point I became quite convinced that the breweries were sponsoring crud so that we'd be forced out of the house.

Cliphead does have a point though. Is X-Factor etc any worse than <shudder> those variety shows featuring Rod Hull and Emu?
