You better start reading now - it's an epic in the making. The lies! The promises! The intrigue! Oh my! and the egos.... The Borgias and their alliances had nothing on the powers that be at NBC. Actually it would make a great plot for a Prime Time TV show.

This version of Poldark was much better than the original one which I watched some years ago - perhaps it's the brooding intensity of Aidan Turner. They are now filming season 2 and the BBC stated that Poldark might be the long running drama they're seeking as a replacement for Downton Abbey. There are 12 novels in Winston Graham's Cornwall series covering the years 1783 to 1820. No air date set yet but they hinted maybe spring 2016. Outlander is also filming and just switched locations. Ron Moore did a Q&A last week and said while he's not in charge of scheduling that we should anticipate late March or April 2016.

My TV guide shows only one rerun for the Holiday special - tonight/tomorrow morning at 3:30am (the broadcast appears as 12/27 3:30am on my cable guide). I happened to catch that it was going to be in last night while looking for another show on PBS yesterday so I set my DVR to tape it. I just finished watching it. I really enjoyed it.

Just finished airing here, it was really good. I enjoyed it.
