    Exactly, they ask one plot type question each episode which goes nowhere. Methinks I'll be giving up on it as I did halfway through lost season 2.

    And don't bother with season 2 of walking dead. It seems they wrote 6 episodes and then realised the season was a tad longer and it's turned into a bad soap opera.

    I never understood why the script-writers put Sandy in a wheelchair almost from the start. Now I know.

    But it's still not much of a denouement after twenty years of build up.

    It's supposed to keep you interested and engaged, but for a large number of people it just puts them off straight away.

    I'm enjoying Homeland just now, normal season long plot, slowly but surely building towards the end.

    The Chicago Code was good too, but got canned after 1 season.

    I listened to an ex-inmate being interviewed the other day. He said the Birdman was a complete and utter bastard who had to be kept away from other people most of the time.

    Hurley's in it as well
