good show or not? ads look good, but A&E?

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2005, 05:03 PM

Out-friggin-standing show, maybe the most enjoyable thing I've watched on TV in the past couple of years and the only real serious "appointment viewing" I've had since ... well, I guess since Homicide:Life In the Streets was cancelled ... I'm hoping (and now about to go searching) that your question means we're finally going to get the next arc of MI-5 & see how the cliff-hanger is resolved.

If that's the case, then THANK YOU Flasch, you've just delivered music to my ears.

YES !!! Season 3 premieres this Saturday night.

NO !!! I'm at the f'n Monster Truck show with my son.
NO !!! !!! I screwed up & read (what turned out to be) a spoiler for the season opener & know what happens already

It's a great show. Unfortunately they moved the time slot so I usually miss it now. One of the very few intelligent shows left on television.

Thanks for the tip guys, I may TiVo it

They are running a marathon this Saturday all day -- I just set up a Season pass to get the day's worth of episodes. Have heard very good things...

I watched what I guess was season two, and then it disappeared. I think I missed the finale last year, because I really don't recall a cliffhanger.

I did enjoy it quite a bit though, but it was my kind of show.

Basically, the lead character shot his boss (who was trying to bring him in because of a pretty intense frame-up) & was last seen walking into the ocean, apparently planning to drown himself.

OH yes!!!! MI-5 Back on, thanks for mentioning it almost forgot!

I need to catch back up with this. I watched some of the first season and it reminded me of a smart, British version of 24 but I lost track of when it was on.

SI
