[Road to 50] TV

Yes I watch too much television and yes my taste is a bit all over the place. There is very little UK ‘prestige’ stuff here and I picked Blake’s Seven over Doctor Who mainly to be contrarian but also because I only really loved the Rose and Amy eras of Who which leaves a lot of years I didn’t!

I suspect it is pretty rare to have V Mars that far ahead of Breaking Bad let alone no mention of Mad Men, Better Call Saul or Six Feet Under - but honestly I didn’t love any of them and I am forever a Marshmellow.

If the second season of Wednesday maintains the quality then that might make it in the future and Sandman similarly.

What do you think? Any howlers in there for you?
