Some TV recommendations

[LeMarchand]

My biggest problem now is that I'm torn between devouring the books and waiting for the adaptations - the TV show has been so superb I almost don't want to ruin all the twists, but I don't know how I'll wait...!

 

I'd go for the books, mainly because (now you're aware of the show, especially) it will be very hard to avoid spoilers for future events. If you start now the long-awaited fifth book should be out in paperback by the time you need it (depending on your free time).

Who watched Borgen on BBC4? All of the intrigue of The Killing with none of the violence. The only casualty so far is a guy with a dicky heart who died on the job.

Me - was more watchable than I expected, but not quite as good as having Sarah Lund/Sophie Grabol at the centre.

She'll probably be in it at some stage, everyone else seems to be

Yep, rather enjoyed it.

While I wait for GoT/Spartacus/Walking Dead to come back, someone recommended that I should watch The Mentalist - and it's amazing!

 

Light viewing enough for my partner to enjoy it, but deep enough for me to love it! If anyone hasn't seen it, I can't recommend it enough, and having just finished season 3, it's still getting better!

Another "Killing" started on Saturday and the "Secret of Crickley Hall" was quite promising last night. I like a good ghost story.
