Which television programmes would you like to see return?

This is a good list. Most, if not all, of my favourites on there. My comments in purple.

 

Haven X B <- The final season (or, rather, the second half of the final season has just started. Shame it's ending, but I do think it's run its course. The Mara storyline is dragging a bit.

 

The walking dead xxx b

 

Arrow X b (haven't watched but have it on good authority similar to daredevil maybe?) <- Good for a while, but I can't take the characters seriously of late. Malcolm Merlyn looks like a tubby Pontins rep in an am dram costume. And (no spoilers) as for a certain character morphing into a lethal, kick-ass fighter after a few boxing lessons and a trip to the wig store - pah! The women's costumes are appalling too: "I know there's an emergency, but wait just a minute while I put on my wig, my make-up and my corset (in which, in the real world, I'd have a severe wardrobe malfunction if I tried to jump let alone leap and bound all over the place)".

 

The flash X (as above) <-- Excellent. Really interesting storyline and the characters are funny and likeable. It's essential to watch the episodes in order and to avoid spoilers at all costs!

 

Agent Carter X (more marvel stuff) <-- Excellent again. Hayley Atwell is magnificent.

 

Banshee xxx b

Game of throne xxxx b

 

Forever X <-- Damn shame this was cancelled after only one season.

 

Motive X

Orphan black xx b

Continuum X b

 

Blacklist X <-- Love it. Liz is a bit of a weak character, but let's face it, everyone is too busy watching James Spader's Reddington to notice. Season 2 isn't as good as the first one though. I hear season 3 is right back on form.

 

Elementary X <-- Jonny Lee Miller does Holmes better than Cumberbatch, and a female Watson is surprisingly easy to get used to. Must watch the episodes in order from the first season, or you'll get a huge spoiler!

 

Blue bloods X

 

Castle X <-- Tried to get into this and failed. A bit too comedy heavy. Also, watching the main bloke will remind you just how long it's been since Firefly.

 

Misfits xxx b

Utopia xxx b

Broadchurch X b

Hannibal xx b

Unforgotten (just started on itv)

Defiance X b

 

Sleepy hollow X <-- I like this very much, but I think it's lost its way. I reckon it will be cancelled after the current season as the viewing figures are dreadful.

 

American horror story xxx - each series is self contained and unrelated

True blood xxx b

 

Grimm X <-- Another good one that's floundering a little. The 'Royals' storyline is getting long in the tooth and they've lost track of a few plot strands (what happened to the keys?). A couple of huge events in the last season should hopefully see it back on track.

 

***

 

Scorpion is quite good, but very silly, and the main bloke is completely unlikeable (a bit of a problem in your leading man).

 

Of the new stuff, Blindspot looks interesting, as does Supergirl and Quantico. Haven't seen any of them yet.
