It does indeed feature some North Americans, some Brits, some Kiwis and maybe actors of other nationalities also.

Per IMDB quite a few companies were involved in the co-production with BBC well-represented among them.

When I first read about the show I misread the bit about Sundance and assumed that it had been shown at the Sundance Film Festival! Until this month I was unaware that Sundance was a tv channel!

I believe Top of the Lake actually premiered and was intended as one long 6 hour movie but split as a mini series for Sundance channel

Suits from last night

Royal Pains episode 2 from this season. A little behind on that. It is nice to see Laura Benanti back after Go On got cancelled. She looked really good.

Edit:

Also watched The Fosters from ABC Family

Trevor

Batman Beyond - am enjoying this show more than expected

Boondock Saint

Last night:

Dexter from this week

Premiere of True Blood this season

Under The Dome from last week (the episode where everyone gets sick/epidemic, a plot device I despise in TV shows, on top of that, the show just isn't that engaging, close to being dropped)

Whose Line Is It Anyway?

Netflix:
Cheers Season 2 Ep. 10

Arrested Development S3 Ep. 9, 10 (my goal was to re-watch the entire series and refresh my memory before Season 4 started but I fell behind, gonna try to finish S3 soon)

Last night:

Bizarre Foods America: Queens NY (Travel Channel)

Vanguard: Tiger Farms (Current TV): Wasn't planning on watching this, but flipped the channels and got hooked. Fascinating documentary about the illegal Tiger hunting in Asia. Current TV sucks though, it's in SD.

DJariya

Rented some movies the last couple of nights, so my viewing was a little light.

Finally got through some stuff tonight:

The Bridge (FX) from Wednesday

Crossing Lines (NBC) from Sunday

Falling Skies (TNT) from Sunday

Mistresses (ABC) from 1 month ago. It was the episode where Savi's sister had sex with the lesbian friend in the shower and then Savi confessed about the baby.

Rizzoli and Isles (TNT) from Tuesday

The Hero (TNT) from last night. So bummed that Charles was voted out.

DJariya

Tonight:

2 episodes of Blue Bloods from this past season. I have quite a few to finish before season 4.

Catfish

Finally watched Person of Interest. Not bad, watched the first 7 episodes in a row.

My Other Self

Longmire
Hell's Kitchen
MasterChef

I wish A&E shows had longer seasons. I don't see why they can't follow the typical 13-episode formula most cable networks use. Sucks Longmire is done for another year in only two weeks.

DJariya

I'm pretty sure Longmire is shooting 13 episodes. I follow Katee Sackhoff on Twitter and she mentioned recently that she was reading the script for episodes 12.


She tweeted on Monday that she's back in New Mexico to shoot 2 more episodes.

I think it's just a budget issue, as A&E starts getting bigger with original scripted shows they will expand to full 13 episode seasons.

Today:

Devious Maids from last Sunday

Shark Tank from last night (repeat from April that I never saw)

Hot in Cleveland

Continuum

This Saturday night watched the finale of the latest "season" of Luther.

Await film and spin-off developments with interest.

My Other Self

Awesome news.

They must have put in an order for an additional 3 episodes recently. When the show was renewed for Season 2 last year it was only for ten.
I hope that's the case. I'd love more Bates Motel next season.

PhantomStranger

It's a huge financial risk for them if the show is a failure in the ratings.

DJariya

Last night:

Covert Affairs from Tuesday

Vanguard from Current TV. It was the episode about Americans traveling overseas to do expensive surgeries that are unaffordable here. Very compelling documentary and just a sad commentary on how pathetic the American healthcare system is and how it only cares about the bottom line.

2 episodes of Blue Bloods from this past season. I have 11 more to go before I finally finish.

DJariya

1 episode of Blue Bloods (10 more to go)

and Pretty Little Liars from Tuesday

IMO, Blue Bloods is one of the better cop procedural dramas. It's a lot more character-driven and focused on the Reagan family led by Tom Selleck.

I like the family dinner scenes where the actors just get a chance to talk about things that most families go through.

DJariya

The Newsroom

Devious Maids

6 episodes of Switched at Birth (caught up through tonight's episode)
