Does anybody watch this?

I though the first series was fairly good, unusual presentation, etc.

The second series was a bit same ol', same ol' shite.

LL is now watching series 3 on DVD in the knowledge that the next three series are available (so Jack is unlikely to die in  Series 3)...

Quite frankly I'd rather take the batteries out of the remote control, dip them in sulphuric acid and push them into my eyes...  noooo:

Never seen it ~ so don't spoil the ending for me ~ just in case I ever get that bored with life.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

I have season 5 or 6 on DVD and found that was worth watching. Havent seen anything past that though.

As far as I know he has a contract for 9 or 10 seasons

It is totally predictable shite...

And the fact that 'Jack' gets into difficult situations from which you're not sure he will escape all the time when there are another ten series to follow makes it all double-shite IMHO.  evil:

Dull indeed. Perhaps Jack could get into a non difficult situation from which escape is certain. That would be unexciting and predictable and therefore well worth watching.

Aint seen any of them myself but I prefer something a bit edgier, like 'The Clangers' or 'Rainbow'.
