A lot of new stuff on this year.Here's my feelings on these.

Sleepy Hollow-Like it a lot so far but could go down.Hope writers can keep it interesting
Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.-can't get into this
The Originals-disappointed,kind of boring.Just kill the guy and take your town back.^&grin
Ravenswood-Haven't watched it yet but a couple of people told me that it pretty good but they have only played one episode.
The Tomorrow People-watched first 2 episodes but don't think I will make it through full season
Almost Human-don't think this is for me.
Reign-Haven't watched it yet but not really my period of interest.
The White Queen-have 2 more episodes to watch but again not my period of interest but yes I have watched it
Witches of East End-I'm watching it but not really dark enough for me.
Once Upon A Time:Wonderland-haven't watched but ratings aren't good

Of shows already on,

The Walking Dead-great show
Beauty and the Beast-don't know how this got renewed
Ancient Aliens-probably mostly B.S. but I love it.{bravo}}
Supernatural-I'm probably the only person that watches this and it's gotten stuck in the same plot but again I love it
Arrow-again I watch this,not a bad show
Haven-quirky little show that could.I watch this
The Vampire Diaries-Will somebody kill Elena and keep her dead so everyone else can move on.
Hell On Wheels-I like this show but have a feeling it won't be back.
Copper-watched first season but not the second
Once Upon A Time-I don't follow this show but what I've seen is pretty good.
Continuum-I like this show,it's different.
Defiance-was really looking forward to seeing this but was disappointed
Warehouse 13-good show.
Falling Skies-one of the best.
Teen Wolf- I like this but it's getting convoluted.
Being Human-both versions good but I never started watching them.
The Borgias and the Tudors-again not my period of interest
Revolution-watch this when it first came on but when it came back on after a long hiatus I never went back to it.Not doing very well in it;s new spot.
Grimm-gets better every year.

A couple that I thought had promise but got cancelled was The Event and 666 Park Avenue.
This brings us to the best which is GAME OF THRONES {bravo}}{bravo}}{bravo}}I actually was a little disappointed in Season 3 but they will make up for it in Season 4.My main gripe about GOT is they have just too many storylines going and you only see 4-5 minutes for each one per episode.I do have to admit that the Wedding was a killer!^&grin
The show I want to see next year is Black Sails which is about pirates in the early 18th century.I saw the trailer and it looks good.
There may 2 shows about alternative history of the American Revolution.One is where we lost and a second one about a group of spies for George Washington.

Globaly, I agree with you

Witches of East End : this is what, for a book, they would call "Bit-Lit", not for me this one

There are lots of these offerrings but very few of interest to me. I really liked Game of Thrones first season but lost interest after they killed off my favorite character (and actor) in the series. I am not sure if I will make it beyond Season 1. Falling Skies has some good actors but the writing seem tedious and predictable; wasn't able to make it beyond the 4th episode. I thought Revolution was aweful. Pity since I really like Elizabeth Mitchell but she had much more to work with in V. I liked the first 4 episodes of The Borgias, mostly because of Jeremy Irons. The Vikings has good critical reviews so I will try that next. None of the Vampire / monster / horror stuff has any appeal to me and I find most of it just plain silly.
 
I forgot about the vikings.I have it recorded and will watch it sooner or later.Also have 2 seasons of Spartacus to catch up on.

I gave up cable back in 2009, and haven't really watched TV since. I get to see current offerings when I visit my parents on Sundays, and what I get to see convinces me that I made the right decision.

Prost!

Not really a Sci Fi / Horror fan. Many on the list not heard of. However have watched quite a few episodes of Under the Dome. Supernatural and Once Upon a time popular in my house (my TF time often coincides with such programmes :wink2:!).

Vikings been good but many probably missed it as not on one of the main channels here.

Will be interested to see the American Revolution one where the British win{sm4}. Black Sails also sounds good.
 
Vikings was my favourite show of the year.....ep 7 with the raid was best!
Game of Thrones is losing me.........like Marco said to many story lines going on!
Under the Dome..........lost me just getting to loopy and then they bring in new characters?

Not far about 25mins away so the past week have been busy cleaning out the gutters and any dry leaves around the yard....and there has been plenty of burnt leaves landing around the place........Parents were lucky as they live at Lithgow and were evacuated with the fire going right up to there back yard!
There house and whole street was saved so all good there...still about 50 or so fires going but the weather is better now with the wind easing off.
Rob,

Rob,
I did not realize the fires were as close to you as they were...sure glad that your Mum and Dad are okay and their house saved...must have been a dreadful experience for them....and a worry for you as well in both respects....Lithgow...there is a lot of flooding there from memory ?.......happy to hear things are okay now...regards TomB
