I think that this is a good series. I saw it back in 95. I think that it was made in NTSC video tape format. So the quality is only fair, and you can't make it any better. You can't find this show anywhere hardly.

How the west was lost.

Ever think people whouldn't murder each other if other people didn't dream and write about or watch it?

We're just babies taught by "parents!?"

teckk, that series on how the West was lost should be compulsory viewing for each American. It's not a heritage that enobles white folk.

I watched Bruce Almighty last night. I finished it, not ever guaranteed when I start a movie. I kinda relax with the slapstick Jim Carrey (as in 'the Mask'). The 'God' character was well cast as Morgan Freeman, and it was a change to see Jennifer Anniston cast as a person, not a ditsy blonde sex object. Her workplace was 100%, his was just wrong. But although the screenplay might have been written by a child, it worked.

This thread has gone awful quiet. But the competition is low for wifi channel space here, so I guess folks are out. This country got it's first ever orange warm weather warning, for daytime ≥30ºC and night time ≥20ºC.

Anyhow, I'm less mobile. I watched Brokenwood and it's light going even if the characters are undeveloped. Unforgotten was more interesting. It started off with apparently unconnected people, and an old body found in a bassement. The body had been murdered, and the unconnected people were all linked in various ways. By the last episode, we had the whole ugly story as the police uncovered it.

Oh yes, have you seen the American series The Yellowstone. You may like that. Keven Costner and a British actress playing his daughter.

First episode:

Don't know how long that link is good for.

I remember Brokenwood, and I remember I stopped watching after 1 or 2 seasons, but I don't remember why anymore... hmmm...
But it was nice to see something different (New Zealand) while it lasted.

Anyhow, I think Unforgotten is new to me. Checking it out.

I have posted this link before, but can't hurt to re-post every year or so:

Possibly. But it might have been for a different reason. I honestly do not remember anymore.
But always happy to see TV/film from other countries.

I started Unforgotten Season 1 and Episode 1 went into the details of identifying the corpse. It's a police work primer.

When I say 'police work primer,' in Unforgotten they are dealing with missing persons who turn up dead. It holds you more as the case gets started and develops.
