    BTW, anyone stuck without TV, I can' t get the CNN stream to work (maybe only works in US?)

    But the MSNBC stream seems okay. I'm using the Huffington post link:

    Just if anyone hasn't found it already...

  • Hard News: Entertainment news,

    Hi Russell et al. thanks for the kind words, and the criticisms.

    Particularly interesting to note people picking up on the political maneuvering over the comedy ratio, which - while not exactly deliberate - is definitely the case, at least for the first 2 eps. I'm glad it worked for some though.

    Personally,the first 3 were the ones I was most worried about (and I'm just talking about the writing here; the directions/acting/production are uniformly excellent all the way through). imho, (and at the risk of sounding like a huckster) while it's by no means anywhere near perfect, it kinda hits its stride at Ep4 (although tbh, I never really know how people are going to react, there may well be total disagreement).

    PS I always kinda felt The Games was over-rated. Frontline however, now that's gold standard.
