I just finished Call the Midwife. What a wonderful show! I was in tears by the end of each episode, but I swear, this isn't sentimental slop. I really hated finishing the season, but at least there's consolation in knowing that they've begun filming another. There's also the consolation of the holiday special (Dec. 30th I believe) that was advertised at the ending of Sunday's finale. |

I love Call the Midwife, too. I have such a girl crush on the actress who plays Jenny Lee. She is perfect for that role, she looks like she came straight out of the 1950's!

I agree, that actress has a great "period" look. Nice to see actresses such as Jenny Agutter and Pam Ferris. I thought Miramda Hart who i know better for her comedy was great as Chummy. It's really eye opening. I couldn't imagine being a woman back then - pregnancy after pregnancy. I have to admit that I loved the storyline where the wife thought the baby may have been the result of a one night stand rather than her husbands. I held my breath while they delivered the baby. I love the husbands reaction!

Absolutely loving "Hunted". It's about some very nasty corporate espionage and has a hot man as the former lover of the lead actress, who played "Lauren" on Alias.

So the show "Made in Chelsea" is now being played on Style Network. I watched this week. It's awful and awesome at the same time--kind of like "The Hills" set in London. Anyone else watching this? I got sucked right in...

Is that the show with the guy who calls his own hair "exceptional", and also his girlfriend's eyelashes, when she presses him to tell her how he feels about her? They showed that clip on The Soup.

YES!!!! I saw that clip before I saw the show, so I cracked up when I watched the show. That guy is ridiculous.

I'm about halfway through The Hour. I love the concept, Dominic West, and the relationship between Freddy and Bel.

I've watched the two episodes of this season so far, and I'm really pleased. I like the change in Freddie. He's more confident of his gifts, and he can do better than fawn over Bel all the time.
I also like the way they're showing how Hector is his own worst enemy. His vanity and need to hit on anything female that moves has caught up to him. I'm thrilled to see him worried about Freddie's new place on the program. Just when he was comfortable thinking he could slide by on his charm...
I was a little worried in the first episode that they were only going to show Bel as this constantly fretting, barely holding it together woman in charge. But the second episode showed a little bit more why she's considered brilliant at what she does.
As a bit of a subplot, I wonder if they're going to go into the history behind Lix and the new head of news. What happened (between them?) in Paris? Hmmm.
Yeah, I'm a fan of the show.
