Idiot Abroad on Netflix. Pretty hilarious

With nothing new on tv I've gone back to season 2 of Veronica Mars. Half of that and season to get through before the movie!

I've been watching Victorian Farm and Edwardian Farm on youtube. Fantastic! I love this kind of historical reality series, especially these particular ones because the people are archaeologists and a historian, so they're interested in what they're doing and eager to explain it to their audience.

Lots of boxing on Fox Sports, as well as the UFC fights on the weekends.

Thanks for this recommendation. Those series look great. I had never heard of them before your post. I've bookmarked it on Youtube for future viewing.

If you're like me, you'll be interested in The Victorian Kitchen, The Victorian Kitchen Garden, and The Victorian Flower Garden, too. They follow a gardener and a cook who were employed before WWII, as they show the audience how to do the various jobs the way they were done in the old days. There's a Wartime Kitchen and Garden, too, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

I'll keep an eye out for those as well.

Last night I discovered a farm series with the same people set in 1620, called Tales from the Green Valley. I think it was the first one done, because everyone seems younger and there's a different narrator. And to round off the series (and just in case you want to watch the shows in historical order) there's Tudor Monastery Farm, set in the reign of Henry VII, and Wartime Farm set in the 40s. They've pretty much covered the history of British agriculture, except for before the Plague.

I watch tv rarely, if I do it's sitting down with my family and watching Duck Dynasty or something. I'll watch some things on EWTN, like Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen or a movie.

Downton Abbey Season 4 below.

[spoiler]Saw the Downton Abbey Season Four Christmas special.  At least it ended on a happier note than last year!  Haha. 

I enjoyed the final episode.  It was nice to see the Bates plotline resolved (and in the manner it was - I think a lot of folks wanted Green dead.  I'm glad they tied up the Ivy line, as well.  She was somewhat of a bother and seemed only to serve as a female foil to Daisy's romance interests.  Thomas is, as usual, annoying, but someone has to drive the plot along and antagonize.  Mr Carson and Mrs Hughes was adorable.  I think Carson remains my favorite character in the series.  Tom needs to think a bit better about his actions, but it's not surprising a man doesn't think when he's interested in a woman. 

I'm not sure what they'll be up to next season.  There isn't any major plot point to be advanced, unless they're going to go on about Mary finding a husband.

Oh well.  I'll keep watching.  lol  [/spoiler]

I'm defiently going to have to check this out ... really want to get back into gardening and I love "historical reality" (for lack of a better phrase).

Me to.  Yeah, it will be interesting to see what they do with the Carson / Hughes connection in season five.  *spoiler altert*: consider the last season of the origional series of Upstairs /  Dowstairs ... they might go with that plot line, but yeah, it was cool (if they were real life acquaiteces I'd be wishing them well, they seem suited together).

I'm supposing Lady Mary will eventualy "hook it up" but I'm down for whatever.  My two fav characters remain the Dowager Countess and Tom the Irish chauffeur.  Maybe he will connect with the local school marm, but there were (in my none literary / artsey sense) some possibilities with Lady Edith, as least as "soul mates".

The Dowager Countess (Maggie Smith) IS NOT going to "hook up" with anybody (nor does she have any suitors at her age) but I LOVE her "attitude", LOL.  It i intriging to watch her interaction with Mrs. Crawley ... hope they continure to play on that in the nexe session.

Dowager Countess is just so terribly fun!  Her dialogue is also hilarious.

Right now, I'm watching season 2 of House of Cards (the American remake on Netflix, though I've also seen a good bit of the British version from the '80s as well).
