Watched Downton Abbey last night, followed by Manor of Speaking--the discussion show afterwards.
Watched the most recent episode of Elementary. It was a fantastic episode, funny thing about it was that it felt like a Law & Order: Criminal Intent episode. It even had Kathryn Erbe in it. However the best thing was setting up a Nicole Wallace type adversary.
Derren Brown: Pushed to the Edge
Yeah sorry, I found this laughable. Three people agree to commit murder and are happy for it to be broadcast. Lol, look at me, I'm totally capable of pushing someone off a building. I don't buy it. They knew it was bogus. If not, then frankly they should go into hiding. Something didn't feel right about the whole thing.

Speaking of Gossip Girl, you are now aware that Leighton Meester, Minka Kelly and Kerry Bishé are not the same person.
Or are they?
If they were, worst foursome ever.
Schitt's Creek.
(Two new episodes dropped today)
It's tragic funny, not haw-haw funny, but so dry, and slow.

But if they weren't... Quite possibly the best foursome in the history of mankind. It'd be like having sex with triplets, only they, since technically unrelated (or are they?), could be doing nasty things to one another without it getting weird.
Although... In the post-Game of Thrones world the definitions of "weird" have changed somewhat...
Just watched the season 10 premiere of Face Off. So glad it's back, love this show.
Pretty good, but Donner went a bit too far with using Christopher Reeve's pre-bulk-up footage.
Finishing off the first season of iZombie at the moment.
Later, I'm watching Death in Paradise and recording Brooklyn Nine Nine

Well, we have to think of it as a demo reel of what could have been.
Yeah, it had new B-roll (e.g. a scene that actually shows a diverse New York that wouldn't have been in the actual film from early 1980) and some new scenes added that have an actor portrayed by someone not Christopher Reeve, but a stand-in...as well as some audition scenes between Reeves and Kidder used as actual scenes for this particular cut...but, it was cool. Zod, Ursa, and Non are even more scarier than the released version; that Moon scene is brutal! And not too mention the scene where Zod throws the police siren at the kid trying to escape the town on horse. (Actually, I think that's a deleted scene). Or the scene where Zod and company take down the military and secret service at the White House.
I also liked the scene between Ka-el and his father before Ka-el gets his powers back.
It's interesting looking at the pacing today. It's not solid pacing, but the tone is consistent and a lot darker than its predecessor. I haven't watched Superman: The Movie in years (since, like, the early millennium) but I want to see how that particular film holds up.

Yesterday, I watched Frantic by Roman Polanski. Usually, I think of Polanski films as long and boring. This one, however, had Harrison Ford and an interesting Hitchcock-like story. (And there was an attractive French girl who had a thing for leather outfits).

I forgot to mention my viewings of the latest episodes from 2 Broke Girls. A show that seemed to have lost its point (i.e. the girls were trying to get their own shop,which they did...and Caroline, the blonde, trying to adjust to the life of the working class - which occurred in this current episode). I think I just watch it for Kat Dennings.
I also watched the latest episode of Black-ish. An interesting episodes that coincides with 'news' that Patti LaBelle, at 71 years of age, is dating a man 30 years her junior. In the episode, the lead character has double standards: Growing up and even in the present day, Anthony Anderson's Dre has no problem with his father bringing home much younger lovers (who are also very pretty). However, he has problems when his mother brings home a handsome younger man.
Currently, as update this particular post, I'm also watching Man of Steel for the first time. And good grief this movie is kinda boring.
Henry Cavill is kind of stiff. Not as stiff as Jai Courtney or Sam Worthington, but he's not as charismatic as many of the performers around him. Too, the movie seems to be plodding along; there's not much going on in the plot. There's not really a story. (Zod is looking for a codec?) And there is a forced romance between Superman and Lois Lane when he hasn't even known her for that long.
On the other hand, Hans Zimmer's music is pretty awesome.

Matthew Perry, Miriam Margoyles, Gemma Atherton.
Matthew Perry and Miriam Margoyles need to become a double act immediately. Genius. Perry looks great and confirmed he won't be in the reunion because he'll be on stage in London but will introduce it.
