I've just watched the first episode on my iPad. Blubbing like a baby. How on earth have I missed this? The soundtrack is brilliant as well.

Ooh Brothers and Sisters was my favourite series ever! I cried when that ended! So I need to know more about Parenthood, is it on tv or just available on download?

Lighthousekeeping · 23/05/2014 12:56

I believe it's on channel 5. I've tried to watch it from there but it's having none if it! I had to illegally open an American iTunes account and download the pilot. It's so good I ordered the first season from Amazon for £8. Read the reviews and you'll get an idea of it.

I've been watching it since it began - it's brilliant!

Lighthousekeeping · 23/05/2014 13:05

I can't wait for the DVD to come

Just read the amazon reviews - sounds like the sort of thing I love - will definitely order it. Thanks for the recommendation Grin

No probs. it's filling a nice little brothers and sisters hole for me.

Its brilliant

The first two seasons (and possibly some of the third?) were shown on 5* but it suddenly stopped mid-season. I've bought the DVD of season 3 and am saving it for a rainy day, or when S4 of Game of Thrones finishes, anyway.

HappyDogRedDogToss · 23/05/2014 14:08

I am watching ep1 of S2 as I type Grin

Oh I love parenthood : )

Was gutted when left hanging by 5* when they stopped mid series so had to resort to ordering the DVDs from the US. I just love it. I am waiting for series 5 to come down in price before I order it.

I have a major girl crush on Lauren Graham and she is as fab in parenthood as she is in gilmore girls. She seems to have cornered the market for hot feisty single mom though.

I loved, loved, loved Brothers and Sisters. Can't believe it wasn't allowed to run and run.

I'll have a look at Parenthood. Thanks OP.

Ellenora5 · 23/05/2014 14:59

I have seen them all so far, I really really love this show, for those of you only starting out you are in for a real treat, enjoy ladies

I happened to put Jo Wiley on last night whilst I was packing. It was her that mentioned that she couldn't wait to get on the train as she was addicted to Parenthood. So I thought, if she likes it I probably would. That's when I looked for it. So do glad I did, can't believe how hidden away it's been.

Bowlersarm - me too, I wanted Nora to be my mum and coveted her kitchen!

BertieBotts · 23/05/2014 16:04

I didn't know it was based on the Steve Martin film (which is excellent) :) I'll definitely try this.

Lighthousekeeping · 30/05/2014 11:17

I'm having a duvet day. I think I may binge on it today.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 30/05/2014 14:41

Where can I watch it? Is it on catch up?!!!! LOVED B and S!

Monopolice · 30/05/2014 15:23

Why is S1 so cheap and the others £30 each on Amazon?

Lighthousekeeping · 30/05/2014 18:24

I don't know. We will have to put our heads together and work out a way to watch the rest.

OP posts:
BertieBotts · 30/05/2014 19:02

You can watch it on watchseries.it but beware some have dodgy ads.

Usually series 1 is cheaper than other seasons of any show on amazon. Sometimes it's because series 1 is shorter than other seasons, sometimes it's because amazon want to hook you in with a nice reasonable price, sometimes it's due to resale value - people buy series 1, don't get on with it, resell it.

Monopolice · 30/05/2014 19:18

Also - in the titles, why do all the Bravermans get baby pictures, as well as all the grandchildren but not Jabbar?

cookielove · 31/05/2014 09:13

Maybe his mum didn't want to provide a baby one, there is one of him when he was younger right?

Lighthousekeeping · 31/05/2014 12:38

You are all very observant

OP posts:
Monopolice · 31/05/2014 13:24

Not at all, the DVD remote doesn't work so I have to sit through it every time Grin

Blondeshavemorefun · 31/05/2014 16:42

Loved b&s - hopefully parenthood will come into sky demand
