What's On

With Tots tucked away in bed by 7:30, 7:45/8:00 has always been bottle/rocking Babes time. This is when I started getting addicted to an 8:00 tv series.


Doc Martin

This show is hilarious. Definitley a British show. It airs on our local PBS station every Saturday night. And I have to watch it. Every Saturday. Because it is SO funny! But I am ashamed. It's only funny because the main character has no people skills. And he absolutely cracks me up. So this Saturday at 8:00, you know what's on at our house!

Downton Abbey


What? You want to know about my second Tv obsession? Well, don't ask. 'Cause I'm so mad. They built it up and built it up. Only to leave me hanging. HUGEly hanging. I thought it was going to be over, waiting for the ending that I am totally expecting . . . 4 episodes of 1.5 hours each, and I think I've paid the price in patience already. But, alas. I was let down. And I have to wait an unknown time to find out what happens at the illustrious Downton Abbey. How lame. I'm so mad.

Yes. It, too, is an 8:00 show!

P.S. All four episodes can be viewed (if you have the time) at the masterpiece classics website until 2/22. But I don't recommend taking the time to come to this ending. You will be mad, too! And it's not as innocent as other classics. That's my disclaimer.

Ok, well I am glad to hear your little review of Downtown Abbey. I was wanting to watch it, but haven't yet. Now I don't think I'll waste my time. I have other things to watch like "Cranford". :)

I just watched the first two episodes of Doc Marten this week (on Netflix instant watch). Pretty great.

If you want a show with a main character that has no people skills -- Bones. I love it.
