Terriers is only one season and good and fun. The Honorable Woman is TREMENDOUS. Top of the Lake was very good. Jack Taylor is good.

Luther is my next Netflix series; I watched the first one awhile back, but backlogged it. thrill's recommendations are next. You guys are the besties.

Been working my way through my "Barney Miller" DVD box set and I just finished the last episode Jack Soo appeared in before his terminal cancer forced him off the set for good.

I feel dumb for being sad about a guy who died 36 years ago.

Luther gets increasingly dumb IMO, but as long as Alice is there it's worth it.

Did you really? Pretty bare-bones except for a commentary track for the series finale. And I get why a TV show that went off the air in 1982 and isn't all that well remembered wouldn't have a lavish DVD set--but they included a bonus disc with "Fish", and I can't imagine anyone nostalgic to watch "Fish".

The episode about marital rape was pretty trippy. Most of the show dates really well but my God did that one just scream Seventies.

In other old TV, am now into season 2 of the twice-a-day "Cheers" reruns on the Hallmark Channel. Remastered for HD is nice, but they butcher the hell out of them for syndication. Cuts right in the middle of scenes in the most awkward spots. Oh well, it's free.
