Just grab episode 1 and let me know if you manage to stop before the
end of the series. Can't wait for season 2.

If you fancy slumming it, I've been watching Ringer... a sort of Soap
Noir based on an old Bette Davis movie. The cliches come thick and
fast, and it takes itself oooh sooo seriously... but with the right
blood alcohol level it's hilarious. Features Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
