About to wade into Smallville season 9. It's taken me this long to buy it because I got thoroughly sick of it. Might even make it through season 10 without serious mental injury.

Just discovered Psych - halfway through season 1 and quite enjoying it, didn't realise it was quite as funny as it is, Dule Hill is great, his partner, I can see getting annoying after a couple of seasons.

The problem with watching stuff like this back-to-back is that any weaknesses in either writing or season-long arcs, do get exposed quite quickly. This repetitiveness really got exposed for me whilst watching numb3ers, I was quite intrigued during season one, however, I was bored witless by the entire premise by season 3 and didn't finish the season.

Some shows can take bulk viewing (i.e watch as many as your eyeballs will allow before you have to go to bed! and then starting again the next day) in fact most shows can, but not all

I've just finished watching The Unit. Never saw it on TV but came across the show whilst looking at Strike Back DVDs. So sad I got through it so quickly!! But it's definitely a show I would watch again. Fantastic!

Just finished watching Prison Break in it's entirety (over the course of a few days). Loved the first season, 2nd was good, 3rd was ok, 4th too much!

Predictable end to the show, but still quite sad!

Overall 7/10

Sliders

Although the episode order is all messed up,i had to find the correct order on the net,it means swapping disks a bit but i'd rather do that than watch them out of order.

when sliders was shown on fox they decided to put the best episodes on first,not caring about continuity

so the first 3 seasons (of 5) are all over the place order wise on the boxset.

still a really good show though

Yes I did that too. A bit of effort but worth it to see the shows in the proper order.

Juggling between Smallville S3 and Arrested Devlopment S1 at the moment. Two of my favourite TV shows.

Harry's Law Season 1
Have to finish the end of season 1 of Homeland - lost interest halfway through and it has been a bit of a pain avoiding all spoilers both in the press and on here and then of course there's season 2...

Currently watching Bones again with my mum. I'm up to date but she's never seen it before so we are watching Season 2 at the moment.

I have Smallville (Seasons 1 - 9) but haven't got round to opening the box set yet (only had it for a year!!).

OMG I love Arrested Development. My sister introduced me to it recently. Watching Season 2 on Netflix. I hear they are making Season 4 this year http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367279/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

I can't wait.

I was going to mention Dollhouse. Just bought it cheap from Zavvi on BluRay, and watched the first 4 episodes. Expected it to be a bit Charlies Angels, but not a bit. Very interesting series.

Sons of Anarchy
only 2 eps into S01 but hooked already
it reminds me of the Soprano's with the strong family ties, powerful matriarch and assorted violence
