Ditto for FOYLE'S WAR and of course LONGMIRE. It's cool to do it at your own pace, and watch as many or as few episodes as you like, especially when there's a serial arc running through multiple episodes, as there is with both JUSTIFIED and LONGMIRE.

I liked Season 1 of Longmire but haven't been able to catch up with Season 2 yet.<br />Elizabeth Zelvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944424094949207841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-1043227288264716612014-01-11T14:00:38.570-05:002014-01-11T14:00:38.570-05:00Dix, what part did John Thaw's daughter play? ...Dix, what part did John Thaw's daughter play?

Though I consider the entire production to be wonderful, I particularly get a kick when John Thaw's daughter appears in the show.Dixon Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11220791609338404147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-91706102119421345762014-01-11T11:53:36.804-05:002014-01-11T11:53:36.804-05:00Dale, I too raced through all the episodes of Hous...Dale, I too raced through all the episodes of <i>House of Cards</i>. I agree it's pretty dark, Liz, but I loved the storyline and the actors too. One thing about these original Netflix-produced series: they aren't concerned about cancellation, so the writers are able to structure the whole series as if it were a very long novel and take their time playing it out. The same thing is true of <i>Orange Is the New Black</i>, which is pretty good also.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to new seasons of half a dozen series, like <i>Hell on Wheels</i>, <i>Longmire</i>, <i>Magic City</i>,<i>Boardwalk Empire</i>, etc.<br /><br />And I need to look into Hulu Plus, Liz--thanks for the tip.John Floydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04001712728130488485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-38029327650097688442014-01-11T10:20:31.437-05:002014-01-11T10:20:31.437-05:00We binged Foyle's War, all seasons, and we'...We binged Foyle's War, all seasons, and we're fixing to do the Maigrets with Michael Gambon.
