What can I watch? (Bored on maternity leave)

[Penguinandminipenguin]

Still 3 1/2 weeks until EDD, and I'm boooored! Can anyone recommend any boxsets/baby programmes to watch to keep me entertained? :)

another vote for orange is the new black.
the thick of it

Thanks again everyone! Should keep me busy!

FlossyCat Lorelai Fattymcfatfat I have season 1 of blacklist as it was strongly recommended by a former colleague, only watched the first 3 episodes so far but have been really disappointed how really badly plotted, acted and scripted it is. You can't make credible drama if the plot relies on both criminal masterminds and senior FBI personnel being really thick and unobservant and making really stupid decisions. Are the first few episodes unrepresentative and they start paying better writers later on? I don't understand why it's getting these recommendations (I also hated 24 for the same reasons)

House of Cards is fab working my way through it now
Luther
Queer as Folk (uk version) still one of my all time favourites
Gossip Girl

Blacklist is definitely one where you have to completely ignore the great gaping plot and character issues, but do that and it's great to watch.

What about The Bridge, The Killing, Borgen if you haven't seen them already and don't mind subtitles.

House of cards with Kevin Spacey is fab too -off to buy the season 3 box set today!
