We've got a few new TV series here.  MacIver - the new series, Magnum PI - the new series.  MacIver is probably OKish - I'm not really watching it - not sure I like Magnum PI as much preferred Tom Selleck in the role.  

Really good series that recently started - is Condor based on the book "Three days of the Condor" - is excellent - from the feedback I received quite popular - but one of those series where you can't afford to miss a chapter or even a part of a chapter - like it's all very involved and one event following directly from the other - like the 24 hour series used to be.  Condor is an action packed US CIA spy and counter intelligence series that plays itself out in the US and Middle East in a race to stop millions from being killed.

There are also a few new British dramas that I'm not too interested in like "The Split" which touches on court dramas on the divorce topic of the very rich, "The Cry" - a fiction story about a baby that didn't stop crying in the plane and the father over medicating it and it died - and how he tried to cover it up by blaming the mother.  Also not quite up my street.  

More to my liking are the whodunnit crime series of the Brits - Father Brown and Midsommer Murders.  We also received the Brokenwood series - also murder whodunnit investigations (fiction) from Australia.  Interesting to hear the ozzie twang - total different ambience in the movies to US - maybe even more genuine and friendly banter among the investigators and their colleagues.  Ozzies can make good movies too following their own unique style instead of copying the US.

I had forgotten about Condor. That's a good one. I wonder if they would do a second season of that one. Also now I remember there was another Mini series called Bodyguard. A British one I think. This one is pretty good too. But it as only like 6 episodes. It's pretty good but too short. Afgen veteran with PSTD become a cop and then bodyguard to British mistier of Defense. He gets manipulated by a terrorist then some sort of political drama happens. Interesting one thought I don't like this type of series much.
