TV programmes that left an impression on you...

[keema naan]

Survivors
Edge of Darkness
The Singing Detective
A Very Peculiar Practice
The Beiderbecke Trilogy

And... erm... I'm sure that its just a coincidence that Joanne Whalley appears twice on that very short list...

That Xmas special episode of Bergerac from the mid 80's which was creepy as fuck with a twist. The two part Salems Lot that was on BBC mid 80s sheer terror. Also there was one programme from late 1970s set on some Moor and someone was killing people in their tent. Never found out what it was.

It was some pretty scary shit. Escape Into Night was later made into the film Paperhouse.

Tommy Boyd?

Thanks .. thats the one

The Watchmen TV series was excellent and the episode entitled Nostalgia was probably one of the best episodes of TV ever.

 

[HeaderDownBrown]

Peep Show
The Wire
Curb Your Enthusiasm

I've actually just started watching this for the 1st time recently, upto series 5, episode 3...it's possibly going to be my favourite comedy ever, don't know why I haven't watched it before!

 

[Scorer]

Genuinely never heard of any of them except the Singing Detective

Edge of darkness was brilliant. A very peculiar practice was classic quirky British comedy based on gp surgery at Warwick University. I worked on the campus for a while and it was indeed quite peculiar.

It is unreal! I used to be one of the many ''they don't make shows like they used to, Only Fools and Horses is the best ever! Then you watch Curb Your Enthusiasm and Peep Show, makes you realise there is a higher class of comedy.

Aye it's top class, just watched 'The Bowtie' with Larry's racist dog

did anyone see Alternative 3 in the 70’s? I don’t recall this but read about it later and it seems to have created a stir when it was shown.

I’ve read about it, quite controversial at the time. Brian Eno soundtrack too!

The racist dog episode . I have one of the darkest sense of humours ever, and even myself in season 8 I think it was, could not believe the Michael J Fox episode. I was hiding behind my sofa almost just wanting Larry to stop being so awkward

The West Wing is my favourite TV series of all time. Never get bored of rewatching as it is as relevant now as when it was made.

Same here its a great show, all episodes from first season to last, perfect.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

The Twilight Zone, the old series in black and white

Well if indeed Flash Gordon was a he.
