Thanks. I don't have Netflix. It's not available in New Zealand but I can still get those shows. Hadn't heard of Orange is the new black but it sounds good. I'll look that one up for a start.

The Walking Dead. It's good but has its consistency issue. Season 1 is good. 2nd season starts off slow but the last 5 shows are great. Season 3 the first half is great, 2nd half okay.


Perhaps the show Dexter.

The Walking dead is about zombies.


Dexter is about a serial killer

I only watch a few 'continuing' TV shows. Started watching The Following but quit. Too depressing. Don't really have time but TRUE BLOOD is one and recently began watching FX's The Bridge. Pretty good...the female detective has Asperger Syndrome so it appears she has no people skills...no empathy, and she picks up strangers in bars for sex. Not what you think though. neutral I really like the Mexican detective. There's a complete episode here... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2406376/



The message from the serial killer.."Why is it that 5 women are killed in El Paso each year and it's a catastrophe, yet hundreds are killed in Juarez right across the bridge and it goes unnoticed..." or something to that effect...really caught my attention. I've been to El Paso and you can see the abject poverty right across the bypass in Juarez. sad I'll keep watching this one.

And i know whatcha mean...if u drive on the section of I-10 that follows the border...on one side, theres shacks, the other...is 6-7 story office buolding and fast food amd stores and restaurants. Makes u feel guilty.

I love this show! I love both main characters but yeah the actor playing the Mexican detective is doing an excellent job. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets nominated for some award next year.

Netflix streaming is likely available to you there, costs the same as the mail version

"Cougar Town" is the best comedy I've seen in years!

AND, even though every episode uses the name of a Tom Petty song, there are plenty of Prince references!

Looked it up and it's not available here. You have to do this kind of stuff.
