You might like The Fosters on Netflix. Parenthood was a great show. I hated to see it end.

I was thinking of discussing tv shows again.

We love The Catch (but the background music is far too loud).

We're also watching Leverage. It's lighthearted, a Robin Hood kind of theme.

Timothy Hutton is the star, and those that watched King and Maxwell will recognize one of the other stars. He was the computer geek.

Another lighthearted one is The Mysteries of Laura. It only lasted one season, with Debra Messing, and the guy who was in The Firm. (what a shame it only lasted one season).

Scott and Bailey (British detective series) have started a new season again.

Suits, Nashville, the Blacklist, Covert Affairs, Rizzoli & Isles, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, Murder in the First, Rosewood (a new show). So many good shows.

Just read Nashville has been cancelled.

I adored Parenthood. It was my favorite show and of course it was cancelled. Great cast.

Since getting ROKU and a subscription to Netflix and ACORN (British TV) several years ago, we haven't kept up with network programing except for NCIS, which is now shown on Netflix. I'm more than happy to give up commercials.

We are currently enjoying The Mysteries of Laura and are watching The Gilmore Girls for the first time (they remind us of our daughter/granddaughter - but hubby and I fail miserably as Emily and Richard Gilmore - lol). We even throw in a Hawaii Five 0 occasionally. We love/love/love Ricky Gervais in Derek. We've watched it over and over.... We're ready to watch Granite Flats again. That was so well done by BYUtv for their first original scripted television drama series.

With ACORN we watch British shows - mysteries, dramas, and comedies. We've watched Midsomer Murders over and over (we first collected every season on DVD) and still enjoy them. I consider Foyle's War and Poirot old "friends", but there are soooooooo many more we have enjoyed.

Lindsey, thanks so much for the clarification. I'm so glad that it's continuing.

I just read this morning that Nashville has been cancelled. Now I won't know if the brat Mattie has gotten her head out of her butt or not. I don't like her :-)

Castle has been cancelled as well. It's had a good run.

I loved Parenthood. I watched all seasons but might have to rewatch on Netflix. Also loved the movie Parenthood that the television show is based on.

DD and I watch Netflix almost exclusively now, except for a few real time shows that I record on the DVR, like Nashville.

Two of our Netflix favorites that are family friendly are Heartland and Gilmore Girls. Even DH likes Heartland! We bought DVDs of the last few seasons that aren't on Netflix yet.

Pls pls pls ck The Detour,. It is hilarious though naughty. 21st century version of Vacation. Try to get it on demand and binge watch.

Jasdip, The Catch was also just cancelled. Re The Mysteries of Laura, while it is not a show that I watch, I too thought it had been cancelled after one season, and was surprised to see it on the list of renewed shows. I was somewhat shocked that Sleepy Hollow was renewed, although I guess I shouldn't have been considering Agent Carter and Person of Interest have been cancelled!

Very soon I will have nothing to watch. My understanding from other Canadians who have been able to view both Netflix U.S. and Neflix Canada is that the U.S. version is a lot better. Much like HBO America and HBO Canada. We do not stream anything on our computers so we need to watch on our TV

The Catch has not been cancelled.

terilyn - You are of course correct! In my mind The Catch was certain to be cancelled and of course I was shocked when it was not. (We do not like it!).

Actually I read on a dedicated TV forum that Simon Baker from The Mentalist would have been a better fit than Peter Krause to play the male lead. While I do like Peter Krause, I do not think that The Catch is a good fit for him. Of course I keep comparing him to Simon Baker...

Jasdip, sorry if I scared you!

ECCENTRIC!!!! Where have you been all winter??!!! I've missed talking to you.

Yes the U.S. Netflix is far superior to ours.........no surprise. Which is why a lot of people use VPN to be able to watch out of Canada.

I honestly thought Mysteries of Laura was only on for 1 season. Thank heavens Lindsey straightened that out.

Hubby loves Person of Interest, but I can't stand listening to the one actor's whispering voice. That also bugged me about Revenge, her whispering.

I'd love to see Simon Baker in something. He was perfect on Mentalist.

IF you do want to stream shows, fire me off a message on my page and I'll give you some sites. If you'd rather not, no biggie.

Simon Baker is a hunk!!

Lily316, this is for you...

Be still my heart...lol

Just read that Mysteries of Laura was canceled yesterday.

I am sorry that Nasville is not coming back. BUT they renew The Batchlor. I amazed that is stayed on a session.

Crap Lindsey, I haven't heard that. We saw another episode last nite, and we really enjoy the show.

The season finales are happening this week and this is the last we'll see of Denozio (sp) on CSI.

Or NCIS. :) I will miss Tony. However, his character was getting a little stale. He was never allowed to spread his wings and become more, to take lead, to do something different. Still getting slapped on the head by Gibbs, but I will still miss him.

I think they've hired one or two new people but don't remember who.

Thanks Blfenton. When I typed CSI, it didn't look right to me, but I was blank. He was good for humour. I like the NCIS-NO as well, but never took to NCIS LA

Jasdip - interesting as I prefer LA over NO. I do watch them both as there isn't a whole lot of watchable tv these days.

Speaking of CSI however, CSI - Cyber has been cancelled. I did watch it and they knew they were on the bubble so the season finale did wrap up all the characters.

Jasdip, I have been here but could not sign on. I blame everything on my computer - and usually I am right. I was kind of shock when I was able to sign on the other day.

You will know by now that Mysteries of Laura has indeed been cancelled, but good news for you The Catch has been renewed! Maybe it is a Shonda Rhimes show.

I really liked Simon Baker in The Mentalist, but did not care for him in The Guardian. Perhaps it is the hair. I am so shallow.

I think the character you do not care for in Person of Interest is probably the John Reese character, since he tends to whisper. I of course like him, but think that he will die in the finale. I prefer finales to have happy endings. After all, it is just TV.

It is funny. So often we tend to like or dislike a show by the lead actors. If we don't like the leads we often won't like the show. I recall years ago Henry Fonda made a movie and in a change of character he played a murderer. The movie flopped.
I will miss Michael Weatherly on NCIS. I will watch Bull maybe once for Michael, but since I don't like Doctor Phil, it is very likely I won't like the show. Now if Mark Harmon were to leave NCIS, well that would be the end of the show for me.

I do watch the other 2 NCIS shows and tend to prefer L.A. over New Orleans, but will watch both.

I also watch Madam Secretary. I have been watching The Night Manager but have only 2 episodes left and The Outlander. I also like Rizzoli and Isles, but soon that show will be gone too.

I gave up on Once Upon A Time and How to Get Away With Murder.

Thanks for the offer of some sites for streaming shows, but since I don't have speakers on my computer, I think I would have a problem.

Tonight I will be watching the series finale of Castle. Who the heck knows what happened behind the scenes. It could have been Fillion or Katic - or more likely both. But you would think they could put their dislike of each other on hold and just do their jobs.

Bones is on its last few episodes as well. It is bad when the shows we didn't use to care for become high drama when faced with all of the so-called reality programs.

Our dog, yes still the same double-coated white shedder who is now 12 loves Bear on Person of Interest.

Thanks so much for the catch-up Eccentric. I've been wondering you you and your wonder-shedder weathered the winter.

Are you able to run an HDMI able from your computer to your tv? That's how we watch shows; we stream to the tv.

Watched the Castle finale, and was very pleased with the outcome.

I didn't care for the ending and I agree that they should have acted as the professionals that are paid to be and got along enough to continue producing the show. It was always entertaining. :(

If any of you like Mistresses, season 4 starts May 30

We subscribed to Amazon Prime for movies and TV programs.

Our new Comcast Xfinity has an On Demand feature that offers many things we like. It has the final season of "Mr. Selfridge" and of "Call the Midwife". Once we get our new BluRay hooked up (and can get closed captioning), we'll return to the second season of "Bosch". I think the most recent season of "The Americans" is next on our viewing menu for Teatime Matinee.

We didn't find anything we wanted on Netflix. We had to sign up to see what was offered. We spent an hour searching for a movie we'd like -- or had not already seen -- then cancelled the same day. Amazon Prime has a much wider selection -- for us, anyway.

Am watching The Americans on Amazon Prime. Wonderful series.

I love the Americans as well. You can't help but like Phillip and Elizabeth even though they are the enemy..

I am still trying to catch up on shows...Castle I'll catch soon...with 10 shows to watch you can tell I got bored with it...have really enjoyed Scandal, The Black List, HTGAWM, sooo many shows...sooo little time but my TIVO has lots of room and some of the networks have a skip feature which with the push of one button rids all the commercials...Although I do admit to liking some of the commercials...Think Suburu dog commercials and basically anything with a dog!!...must keep this post going cause there is gonna come a time when I'm looking for something to watch...Netflix is gearing up with some good ones as well as Amazon Prime!!

I loved Simon Baker in The Guardian...have season one of the mentalist on DVD and have watched a few shows here and there...

I loved Person of Interest...his whispering voice seems to be part of the persona of his character...he is such a good actor with so many places to go...I missed the show and am glad they are wrapping things up...

I'm still not over Downton being gone and now their wrapping up Mr. Selfridge...I watched Poldark last year and am hoping there is more to that show on PBS...

We're really liking Bosch. It's based on Michael Connelly's books. I don't think I've seen the lead character in anything before (Titus Welliver) but I'll look for him now.

In the comedy genre, (past and present), I love The Middle, Life in Pieces, Raising Hope, The Real O'Neals.

Fran, did you know that they are dating in real life, and that she's pregnant??
