We used to go to the cinema....now we watch DVD box sets! Just getting to the end of Mad Men (series 4...waiting for series 5 to come onto terrestial / DVD) and worrying what to do once it's finished. Any good suggestions of what to try next? (Past views include West Wing, Sopranos, Six Feet Under.....I do the more girlie ones too but need something that Mr NHM will enjoy too.)


Even good quirky film recommendations welcome.


I appreciate that we're probably way behind the times but several years of broken nights has meant many years of curtailed TV time and feels like we gave up keeping up with Time Out a lifetime ago!!

I love box sets! Perfect parental viewing...


All time favourite is the West Wing (amazing amazing!).


Also love:

Sopranos

Damages

Prison Break (season one, the beauty of Wentworth Miller... gets a bit silly after season one)

Gavin and Stacey (so silly, so fab)

True Blood (wasn't sure, now I LOVE it, very camp, very explicit, have season 4 waiting for me!)

Glee - just getting into this, very funny and watchable

Game of Thrones (again wasn't sure, watched first episode twice and then was hooked, very husband-friendly)

House (although didn't like watching when pregnant)

Grey's Anatomy and spinoff (which I prefer) Private Practice (again not one for pregnancy)


If I think of any others I will write again...

(just been gazing at our million-and-one DVDs on the shelf), I feel I should mention Band of Brothers (Mr Oi's favourite) and Battlestar Gallactica, again, he loved and a number of people have said how great they thought it was.


And of course, on the film front, if you want something that's going to last a few evenings, you can't beat a bit of Lord of The Rings - awesome. Quite literally.

    • I wanted to just add that my experience has shown me that fitness classes aimed at an older demographic are often nowhere near as good or as much fun as those aiming at all and sundry.. most classes I've been to NOT aiming at 'Middle aged' people have had such a mixed bag and everyone does what they can at their own pace and this is encouraged. Do give it a go.
    • Greens have some mad polices and I am still trying to work out if it is true that the leader of the party thought he could hypnotize women to have larger breasts 🤷‍♂️ country is in a real state at the min and all party’s have a part to play in that. what the future holds who knows but it is worrying.
    • A stellar win for the Greens in Gorton and Denton, no doubt. But by-elections are funny beasts. Labour's strength traditionally has been in its ground game. Legions of canvassers over many years in many seats usually means that they are best placed to 'get out the vote' on election day. I can't quite believe that the Greens have enough data, or people, to wrest control of the council from Labour.
